Potential deleterious effect of [Beta]-adrenergic stimulation during warm-blood cardioplegia in rabbit hearts

We hypothesized that β-adrenergic stimulation with isoproterenol during continuous normothermic cardioplegic arrest would enhance the regenerative and regulatory function of the myocardium, resulting in improved cardiac function. We studied isolated rabbit hearts paced at ~200 beats/minute and cr...
