Abstract

The tolerance to strophanthin was studied in acute and subacute experiments on 76 cats at varying time after occlusion of the coronary artery branch. The beta-adrenoblocker alpheprol completely smoothed away the hypersensitivity to strophanthin after the coronary blood flow cessation while the alpha-adrenolytic tropaphen virtually did not affect the tolerance to strophanthin in intact animals even after experimental myocardial infarction.

Antiarrhythmic Agents: Mechanisms of Action

Understanding the mechanism of action of antiarrhythmic agents is essential in developing new medications as treatment of cardiac arrhythmias is currently limited by the reduced availability of safe and effective drugs.

Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia that is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly due to stroke and thromboembolism. Here is the latest research.

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.

Allergy and Asthma

Allergy and asthma are inflammatory disorders that are triggered by the activation of an allergen-specific regulatory t cell. These t cells become activated when allergens are recognized by allergen-presenting cells. Here is the latest research on allergy and asthma.
