title: [Bioelectrical mechanism of the anti-arrhythmia effect of a synthetic acetylcholine analog EDIHYP].
abstract: The synthetic acetylcholine analogue ethyl-3-(2,2-dimethyl-2-ethyl-hydrazinium) propionic iodide (EDIHYP) exerts a powerful antiarrhythmic action in cardiac ischemic, reperfusion, and adrenergic lesions, as well as in infarction and postinfarction cardiosclerosis, as evidenced by animal experiments. The study was undertaken to examine the electrophysiological mechanism of EDIHYP s action on isolated rat heart cardiomyocytes. It was shown that the agent substantially reduced the resting potential, as well as action potential amplitude and duration in total ischemia and resultant reperfusion. The antiarrhythmic changes provided a multiple decrease in the duration of ventricular tachycardia and cardiac fibrillation in reperfusion. Thus, the fact that EDIHYP has a direct action on the bioelectrical activity of cardiomyocytes may play an important role in its antiarrhythmic effect in the whole body.
