Kinin release from normally perfused and ischaemic isolated rat hearts: effect of strain.
The release of kinin during 30 min of left descending coronary artery was observed in WKY, SHR and SD rat isolated hearts. The kinin levels were compared with the ECG abnormalities in these strains. It was observed that low level of kinin could not be a reason for increased ECG abnormalities. IRBK in the perfusate was also characterised.
