Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Endothelin, administered i.v. to anesthetized dogs, dose dependently increased the cardiac output, left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP), and maximum upstroke velocity (max dp/dt) of the LVSP for about 10 min without changing the heart rate. Thereafter the cardiac output decreased to below the control level but max dp/dt decreased to the control level. The arterial pressure and total peripheral resistance showed an initial, transient decrease followed by a sustained increase. These results suggest that endothelin has positive inotropic and long-lasting vasoconstrictive effects preceded by transient vasodilatation in vivo.
