The continuing evolution of the Langendorff and ejecting murine heart: new advances in cardiac phenotyping.
The isolated retrograde-perfused Langendorff heart and the isolated ejecting heart have, over many decades, resulted in fundamental discoveries that form the underpinnings of our current understanding of the biology and physiology of the heart. These two experimental methodologies have proven invaluable in studying pharmacological effects on myocardial function, metabolism, and vascular reactiv...
متن کاملEffects of Acetyl-L-Carnitine on Cardiac Arrhythmias and Infarct Size in Ischemic-Reperfused Isolated Rat Heart
Objective(s) This study aimed to examine whether acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC) was able to reduce cardiac arrhythmias and infarct size in the ischemic-reperfused isolated rat heart. Materials and Methods The isolated hearts were mounted on a Langendorff apparatus then perfused by a modified Krebs-Henseleit solution during 30 min regional ischemia and 120 min reperfusion (control) or by enriched K...
متن کاملEffect of endotoxemia on heart rate dynamics in rat isolated perfused hearts
Introduction: Beat-to-beat variation in heart rate shows a complex dynamics, and this complexity is changed during systemic inflammatory response syndrome (e.g. sepsis). It is not known whether or not cardiac pacemaker dynamical rhythm is affected by sepsis. The aim of this study was to investigate heart rate dynamics of isolated heart as well as expression of pacemaker channels (HCN) in a r...
متن کاملEffects of Chronic Oral Administration of Natural Honey on Ischemia/Reperfusion-induced Arrhythmias in Isolated Rat Heart
Objective(s) In this study, effects of chronic administration of oral natural honey against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)- induced cardiac arrhythmias were investigated in isolated rat heart. Materials and Methods Male Wistar rats were divided into four groups (n= 10-14 rats in each group) and fed with natural honey (1%, 2% and 4% dissolved in the drinking water) for 45 days except for the con...
متن کاملEffects of L-Carnitine on Cardiac Apoptosis in Ischemic- Reperfused Isolated Rat Heart
Carnitine is a vital biologic substance for transporting fatty acids into myocytes. It also facilitates fatty acids β-oxidation for energy production. In this study, effects of L-carnitine (L-Car) on apoptosis in the ischemic isolated rat heart were investigated. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups and anesthetized by sodium pentobarbital. The heart was removed and mount...
