R-R intervals from surface ECG, averaged over three cycles, have been plotted against time; t = 0 corresponds to the end of the equilibration time (30 min after mounting the heart in the Langendorff apparatus). Boli of 300 μl of solutions containing ACh, AP6A and Ado (each at 100 μm) were injected at the times indicated. A, control; B, in the presence of CPX (20 μm) in the perfusing fluid; C, recovery after washout of CPX.
