The effects of an antiserum to the contractile proteins of the heart on the developing rat embryo.
نویسنده
چکیده
An antiserum with specific reactivity against the contractile proteins of the rat heart has been raised in the rabbit. Fractions of the serum have been shown to enter the isolated rat embryo by electron-microscopic studies with ferritin, where they bind to the myocardium, producing degenerative changes. Both IgG and IgM fractions are toxic, producing foetal death in a large proportion of explanted embryos.

Background: There are controversial reports about the exact mechanisms of lead-induced hypertension, but many factors such as alteration in the responsiveness of cardiovascular system to endogenous substances including catecholamines could be one of the mechanisms involved. In present study, the effect of exposure to 100 ppm lead acetate by drinking water (in the periods of 4, 8 and 12 weeks)...

Background: It is generally accepted that the selective adenosine triphosphate-dependent potassium channel openers (KATP openers) have a dramatic role in the treatment of some cardiovascular disorders. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of diazoxide, a potent ATP-related potassium channel opener, on spontaneously beating isolated rat atria to achieve more accurate approaches t...
متن کاملThe Comparative Effects of Four Antihistamines on Isolated Rat Atria
It has been reported that some of H1 receptor antagonists have important effects on cardiovascular system. Terfenadine as a non-sedative H1 receptor antagonist has an arrhythmogenic activity. In this study we have shown the effects of four antihistamine drugs: terfenadine, loratadine, clemastine and diphenhydramine, on the rate and contractions of isolated rat atria. Terfenadine (1-10 µM) cause...

Abstract Introduction: Resent studies have been shown beneficial effects of hyperoxia pretreatment against ischemia-reperfusion injury in different organs. The aim of the present study was to investigate early and late effects of normobaric hyperoxia (≥95% O2) pretreatment on ischemia-reperfusion injuries in isolated rat hearts. Methods: Following 60 and 180 minutes of hyperoxia, rat hearts w...

Background: Diabetes is an important risk factor for cardiovascular events. Endothelial dysfunction is the main reason cause of disability and death in diabetic patients and death. The present study investigates the effects of metformin and glibenclamide on vasoconstrictive and vasodilative responses in the diabetic rat aorta. Methods: Rats were divided into four experimental groups (con...
