Isolated atria of guinea-pigs showed negative inotropic and negative chronotropic responses after violamycin B I (V), carminomycin (C) and daunomycin (D), respectively. The mean effective concentrations in reducing amplitude (IC50) were 5.9 x 10(-4) mol x 1(-1) for V and 1.3 x 10(-4) mol x 1(-1) for C and D. In rabbits, intravenous injections of different doses of the antibiotics twice weekly for one month produced histopathological alterations in the myocardial tissue, which were smaller after D than after C or V.
