چکیده

SUMNIARY XMyocardial electrolyte balance and hemodynamics were studied in 14 patients before and after the administration of ouabain. The drug caused a significant loss of potassium from the myocardium. This was accompanied by a significant positive inotropic response, indicated by an increase in the rate of rise of left ventricular pressure and systolic ejection-rate index. Heart rate, cardiac output, left ventricular end-diastolic pressure, brachial artery pressure, and left ventricular stroke-work index remained unchanged. These observations in man are compatible with those theories of digitalis action which associate inotropic effect with the inhibition of membrane sodiumand potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase.

Effect of Sodium Valproate on Ouabain-Induced Arrhythmia in Isolated Guinea-Pig Atria

Sodium valproate (SV), an antiepileptic drug has several mechanism of action. It inhibits voltage sensitive Na+ channels and reduces intracellular Na accumulation. These actions are similar to that of both phenytoin and carbamazepine. We have investigated the direct cardiac action of SV and its effects on ouabain-induced arrhythmia in isolated guinea-pig atria. The guinea-pig atrium was dissect...

O-13: Na+/K+-ATPase Alpha1 Isoform Mediates Ouabain-Induced Expression of Cyclin D1 and Proliferation of Rat Sertoli Cells

Background: Novel roles for the interaction of cardiotonic steroids to Na+/K+-ATPase have been established in recent years. The aim of the present study was to investigate the intracellular signaling events downstream the action of ouabain on Na+/K+-ATPase in Sertoli cell obtained from immature rats. Treatment of Sertoli cells with ouabain (1 μM) induced a rapid and transient increase in the ex...

Effect of ouabain on submandibular salivary gland and level of zinc and copper in saliva and serum in rat

In this study, the effect of various doses of ouabain (1, 2, and 5 mg/kg, i.p.) on weight and flow rate of submandibular gland (SMG) and changes in zinc and copper levels in pure saliva and serum of rats was investigated. The time interval between injection of drug and sampling was 30 min. In addition, the effect of a single and toxic dose of ouabain (5 mg/kg, i.p.) in various time intervals (3...

اثر سیتالوپرام در جلوگیری از مسمومیت ناشی از اوابائین در دهلیز مجزای خوکچه هندی

Background: The role of citalopram (a tricyclic antidepressant of SSRI group) on ouabain-induced arrhythmia in guinea pig was well established. Materials and methods: Thirty-two guinea pigs were randomly assigned in any of the four groups citalopram, ouabain, citalopram+ouabain, and control. The Na, K, and Ca concentrations were measured using atomic absorption technique. Results: Citalopram ...

Protective effect of clonidine against the cardiotoxic effects of ouabain in cat.

Cardiac arrhythmias and cardiac arrest were induced in pentobarbitone anaesthetised cats by slow intravenous infusion of ouabain. The dose of ouabain required for the induction of the stages of arrhythmias and cardiac arrest and the maximum pressor effect induced by ouabain were assessed in control and clonidine pretreated cats. Clonidine caused significant delay in the onset of cardiotonic eff...
