... ventricular action potential parameters, as well as sodium (I Na ) and calcium (I Ca , L ) currents, in Zucker fatty (ZF) rats and Zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rats, which serve as models for obesity and T2DM, respectively. Ventricular myocytes were isolated from 25- to 30-week-old Zucker rats. Resting...

...) MI were analysed. Monophasic action potential was recorded from the lateral LV epicardium at baseline and 24 h post-MI, and APD90 (action duration at 90% of repolarization) was measured. Infarct size was calculated 24 h post-MI. Infarct size and phase I VT+VF did not differ significantly between...

.... It is suggested that this hyperactivity is related to the degree of left ventricular dysfunction and reflexes. Correspondence: Dr Lee N. Graham ( [email protected] ). 17 11 2003 23 12 2003 3 2 2004 3 2 2004 © 2004 The Biochemical Society 2004 action potential...

...Dalit Goldstein; Bella Felzen; Moussa Youdim; Rachel Lotan; Ofer Binah 1. Our aim was to investigate the effect of experimental iron deficiency on cardiac functional properties. We recorded ventricular isometric twitch, action potentials and the L-type Ca 2+ current in isolated ventricular myocytes...

...P. A. Poole-Wilson; S. M. Cobbe; C. H. Fry 1. We have studied the acute effects of frusemide, triamterene and amiloride on potassium exchange, the action potential and mechanical function of isolated rabbit myocardium. 2. Potassium exchange in the myocardium was unaltered by these diuretics. 3...
