Effect of calcium concentration, isoproterenol, and McN-2165 on fetal rat heart rate and cyclic AMP level. 1979

C L Eyer, and W E Johnson

The fetal rat heart in organ culture was used to study the interaction of calcium with the cardioactive agents. McN-2165 is an agent that produces negative chronotropism and elevation in cyclic AMP levels in this preparation. A concentration of 2.76 mM calcium ion antagonized the negative chronotropic action and prevented the cyclic AMP elevation produced by this agent. Positive chronotropic actions of isoproterenol were prevented by decreasing the calcium level below 1.84 mM.

D009206	Myocardium	The muscle tissue of the HEART. It is composed of striated, involuntary muscle cells (MYOCYTES, CARDIAC) connected to form the contractile pump to generate blood flow.

D011247	Pregnancy	The status during which female mammals carry their developing young (EMBRYOS or FETUSES) in utero before birth, beginning from FERTILIZATION to BIRTH.	Gestation,Pregnancies
D002118	Calcium	A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.

In humans, the unborn young from the end of the eighth week after CONCEPTION until BIRTH, as distinguished from the earlier EMBRYO, MAMMALIAN.

It is a second messenger and a key intracellular regulator, functioning as a mediator of activity for a number of hormones, including epinephrine, glucagon, and ACTH.
