The effects of equipotent concentrations of diltiazem, verapamil, and nifedipine upon the accumulation of extracellular potassium IK + lout and the left ventricular pressure (LVP) were studied during global ischemia in isolated perfused rat hearts. Measurement of [K+]out and LVP were performed in tw

Our study evaluated the relationship between the endogenous production of prostacyclin and the antiarrhythmic effect of ischemic preconditioning against ischemic and reperfusion-induced tachyarrhythmia. Langendorff perfused rat hearts underwent 30 min regional ischemia with reperfusion. Precondition
## Abstract Intracellular [Na^+^], [H^+^], and [ATP] and mechanical performance were measured in the isovolumic perfused rat heart during ischemia. The concentration of intracellular sodium, [Na^+^]~i~, was determined by atomic absorption spectroscopy under control conditions, and [Na^+^] was monit
