متن کاملPotent vasoconstrictor responses to endogenous digitalis-like factor of isolated, perfused dog intermediate auricular arteries.
Endogenous digitalis-like factor obtained from urine of hypertensive patients caused a vasoconstriction in a dose-related manner in isolated, perfused dog intermediate auricular arteries. The constriction was not modified by alpha-adrenoceptor blockade.
متن کاملImmunoreactive digitalis - like in pre - eclampsia substance

The digoxin levels in maternal and cord blood of 504 randomly selected patients were determined. Since none of the patients received digoxin, these levels indicated a crossreacting substance (immunoreactive DLS). DLS levels were significantly higher in the cord blood of ...
