The effects of ANOE on an isolated rat heart contractile activity.

Isolated rat hearts were super-fused with Mac-Ewen physiological solution containing ANOE at the concentrations ranging from 0.01µg/ml to 10µg/ml. The addition of each concentration elicited a decrease in heart contractile activity. The control represents the contractile force (CF) and heart rate (HR) recorded before heart super-fusion with ANOE (values were normalized and fixed at 100%). Ordinate: responses expressed in percentages. Abscissa: ANOE concentrations. Data are expressed as means ± SEM (n = 10); ***, P < 0.001 vs. control for CF; ###, P < 0.001 vs. control for heart rate.
