Anti-Ischemic Activity of n-Tyrozol under Conditions of Repeated Transient Myocardial Ischemia in Rats

Аннотация

We studied anti-ischemic activity of n-tyrozol under conditions of repeated transient myocardial ischemia in rats caused by repeated (5×3 min) occlusion of the left coronary artery. n-Tyrozol administered intraperitoneally in a dose of 20 mg/kg daily over 4 days before the ischemia modeling (the last injection 15 min prior to the start of the experiment) produced a clear-cut anti-ischemic effect: it reduced ST elevation and promoted more complete recovery of ECG during reperfusion. During reperfusion periods, n-tyrozol significantly decreased the risk of ventricular fibrillation and shortened the duration of tachyarrhythmia episodes (ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation).
