A Positive Influence of Frequency on the Inotropic Response of Isolated Rat Atria to Certain Adrenergic Amines. Effects of Cocaine and U-0521 (3′, 4′-Dihydroxy-2-methyl Propiophenone)

The effects of several inotropic interventions on the isometric developed tension (IDT) of isolated left rat atrium, electrically driven at several frequencies were investigated. The experimental stimulating procedure allowed the attainment at all the rates tested (25, 50, 100, and 200 per min), sim...
