Effects of liriodenine on end-systolic pressure Pes (A), stroke volume SV (B), and effective arterial volume elastance Ea (C). Ea could be determined by the ratio of Pes to SV. Neither Pes nor SV was affected by liriodenine at the dose of 10−7 g kg−1, causing no significant change in Ea. However, liriodenine at the dose of 10−6 g kg−1 produced a rise of 7.1% in SV and a fall of 10.6% in Ea. The increased SV in the absence of any significant change in Pes accounted for the reduction in Ea. BA, basal state; DMSO, dimethylsulphoxide.
