title: [Effect of endothelin and endothelin-antiserum on ischemia/reperfusion injury in isolated rat hearts].
abstract: Reperfusion of isolated perfused rat hearts with 10(-9) mol/L endothelin (ET) significantly exacerbated the ischemia/reperfusion injury(I/R), in contrast, reperfusion with specific ET-antiserum dramatically alleviated myocardial I/R injury. The results suggest that ET may be an important factor, which contributes to the pathogenesis of myocardial I/R injury.
