Effect of alloimmunized thymic cells on isolated mouse atria. Participation of prostaglandins

The effects of thymic cells from alloimmunized mice on the mechanical activity of isolated mouse atria were explored. Immune cells decreased the tension without changing the rate of beating of the atrium. After inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis with indomethacin and acetylsalicylic acid, the neg...

Sumario:The effects of thymic cells from alloimmunized mice on the mechanical activity of isolated mouse atria were explored. Immune cells decreased the tension without changing the rate of beating of the atrium. After inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis with indomethacin and acetylsalicylic acid, the negative inotropic action of alloimmunized thymic cells was blocked. © 1983 Birkhäuser Verlag.
