| Abstract | 1. We studied the role of bradykinin (BK) and its active metabolite Des-Arg9-BK on noradrenaline release in association with the incidence of ventricular arrhythmias at reperfusion of the ischaemic myocardium. 2. Experiments were performed in Langendorff perfused isolated hearts of rats subjected to 30 min no flow followed by 5 min reperfusion. The electrocardiogram was monitored continuously and noradrenaline was measured in the effluent as well as in the myocardial tissue. 3. In untreated hearts, cumulative noradrenaline overflow following global ischaemia reached 226 +/- 35 pmol g-1 of heart (n = 8, P < 0.05) during the 5 min of reperfusion along with ventricular tachycardia and/or fibrillation. A decrease in myocardial noradrenaline (-31%) was also observed. 4. Bradykinin perfused at concentrations between 0.01 and 1 microM, 10 min before flow was stopped and at reperfusion, inhibited noradrenaline overflow in a concentration-dependent manner. At a concentration of 1 microM, bradykinin completely abolished noradrenaline overflow. For the same concentration of bradykinin, myocardial noradrenaline contents were significantly higher (n = 5-8, P < 0.05). Ventricular fibrillation but not ventricular tachycardia was also prevented. 5. Des-Arg9-BK (0.1 microM) in the same experimental conditions had similar effects. While Hoe 140, a selective antagonist at B2 receptors, did not abolish the effects of bradykinin, Lys [Leu8] Des-Arg9-BK, an antagonist at B1 receptors, abolished the effects of both Des-Arg9-BK and bradykinin. 6. These results suggest that the cardioprotective action of bradykinin in the preparation may be mediated partially by an inhibitory effect on noradrenaline liberation which could be mediated by the activation of B1 receptors. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
