title: [Effects of large and small doses of vitamin E on the excitability of frog myocytes].
abstract: The effect of the fat-soluble vitamin E on electrophysiological characteristics was investigated on frog cardiomyocytes. Large and small doses of vitamin E produced qualitatively identical effects: shortening of the plateau and decrease of the AP--duration. We assume that large doses of vitamin E can affect the cardiomyocytes membrane transport function, mainly due to the activation of slow membrane channels.
