Özet

The effects of warming on the response to various contractile agents of calf cardiac vein were studied using 2.5-mm long cylindrical segments. Concentration-response curves for carbachol (10(-9)-3 x 10(-4) M), 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT; 10(-8)-3 x 10(-3)), potassium chloride (KCl; 10(-4)-5 x 10(-2) m) and calcium chloride (CaCl2; 10(-4)-10(-2)) were isometrically recorded at 37 and 41degreesC (warming). During warming the sensitivity, but not the maximal response, of carbachol 5-HT, KCl, and CaCl2 was significantly higher than at 37degreesC. Warming to 41degreesC after treatment with N-G-nitro-L arginine methyl esther (10(-5) m) did not modify the effect of warming. These results suggest that nitric oxide seems to have no role in the warming-induced responses in calf cardiac vein.
