Effects of anandamide on coronary artery reactivity and ischaemia and reperfusion-induced arrhythmias in the rat

Myocardial infarction increases endogenous anandamide release which may protect against ischaemia and reperfusion induced arrhythmias via an effect on coronary artery reactivity. The vasorelaxant of anandamide has been observed in many isolated vascular preparations but the mechanism remains unclear...
