The effect of glucagon on the coronary circulation in man.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Glucagon, 300 ,ug/minute, was infused intravenously over 15 minutes in 27 subjects. The patients were divided into three groups: group I, patients without heart disease; group II, patients with arteriosclerotic heart disease; and group III, patients with congestive heart failure. Hemodynamic measurements included observations on myocardial blood flow using bolus injections of 84rubidium and a coincidence counting technic. Myocardial oxygen consumption was determined after coronary sinus intubation in nine of the 27 patients. Significant increases were noted in heart rate, mean arterial pressure, tension-time index/minute and left ventricular work. Myocardial blood flow increased significantly while myocardial oxygen extraction remained constant suggesting that the augmentation in blood flow was sufficient to meet the increased myocardial demands for oxygen. The effects of glucagon on the coronary circulation resemble that of isoproterenol rather than norepinephrine without, however, leading to the production of arrhythmias seen with these catecholamines.

متن کاملGlucagon: its enhancement of atrioventricular nodal pacemaker activity and failure to increase ventricular automaticity in dogs.
The effects of glucagon on atrioventricular nodal automaticity and ventricular automaticity were studied in anesthetized open-chest dogs. After the sinoatrial node was crushed, glucagon, 4 fig/kg, produced a marked and sustained increase in the rate of A-V nodal discharge (27.6 ± 10.1 vs. 117.4 ± 6.5 beats/min) that persisted for an average of 20 minutes. The effect of glucagon was not modified...
