Achieving high performance for long duration is a key goal of advanced tokamak research around the world. To this end, tokamak experiments are focusing on obtaining (a) a high fraction of well-aligned noninductive plasma current, (b) internal transpo

Endothelin (ET) may have both detrimental (reduced coronary flow) and beneficial effects (positive inotrope, reduced arrhythmogenesis) following ischaemia. We examined the effects of ET on cardiac function during reperfusion following prolonged hypot

Objective: Endothelin plays a role in the regulation of basal coronary tone. We hypothesized that low coronary reflow and reduced cardiac function after prolonged ischemia may be due to increased release of endogenous endothelin. Methods: Using an is

Ageing is known to be associated with changes within the heart. We investigated whether the coronary response to endothelin-1 (ET) and sarafotoxin S6c (S6c) is altered with increasing age, before and after cardioplegic arrest.Using an isolated rat he

1. Coronary vascular tone is a vital factor that regulates the delivery of oxygen to cardiac muscle. We tested the hypothesis that basal coronary tone may depend on the release of an endogenous vasoconstrictor peptide, endothelin (ET). 2. Using an is

Objecti6e: Heat stress and induction of heat shock proteins confer protection against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury; however the precise mechanisms of this effect remain unknown. We investigated the influence of heat stress on metabolic and

Objective: Monitoring of cardioplegia infusion pressure may be important, particularly in immature hearts and in hearts without coronary artery disease. We have investigated the effects of infusion pressure on the preservation of the isolated rat hea

Addition of adenosine to cardioplegic fluid has been shown to improve myocardial tolerance to ischemia. This study was designed to investigate further this phenomenon to evaluate the dose-response and the temperature dependence of the effect of addit

The aging process is known to be associated with profound changes in the heart. To determine whether resistance of coronary endothelial and vascular smooth muscle function to ischemia may be related to age, four groups of rats ( n = 6 in each group)

Objective: To evaluate the effect of l-arginine, the physiological substrate of nitric oxide (NO), upon coronary flow (CF) and mechanical function during reperfusion following cardioplegic arrest. Methods: Two groups of isolated rat hearts were subje
