  1. Actions of thyroid hormone on myocardial contractility in the intact animal

    The central role of the mammalian heart in the circulation was recognised by Nei Chung when he wrote in his Third Book of the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine (2698 - 2598 B.C.): Treatise on the Five Viscera in Relation their part in Perfecting Life, "The Heart is in accord with the …

  2. Myocardial Contractility in Fetal Sheep Exposed to Long-term Hypoxia at High Altitude : Activator Calcium and Beta-adrenergic Receptor Function

    <p>We studied myocardial contractility in fetal sheep exposed to ~112 days of hypoxia at high-altitude (3,820 m). We recorded left and right ventricular wet weight, and measured the inotropic responses to extracellular calcium [Ca<sup>2+</sup>]<sub>o</sub> (0.2-10 mM), ryanodine …
