Resumen:
Since reactive oxygen species (ROS) are critical mediators in the intracellular signaling leading to the Anrep effect or slow force response (SFR) to stretch, and the autocrine action of Angiotensin II (A2) released after stretch is the trigger for these ROS, experiments were performed to explore the role of A2 and its downstream targets on superoxide anion production (SOP). Rat cardiac slices were used to measure SOP by chemiluminescence (5 umol/L lucigenin). After 15 minutes of 1 nmol/L A2 SOP increased by 151±3 % of control (n=8, P
