Abstract
Stimulation of β-adrenoreceptors with low (10–8 and 10–7 M) or high (10–6 M) doses of isoproterenol in hypokinetic rats treated with L-NAME (a non-selective blocker of NO synthases) decreased or increased myocardial contractility, respectively. In control rats, all examined doses of isoproterenol used under blockade of NO synthases inhibited myocardial contractility.
