We studied in vivo effects in monocrotaline induced pulmonary hypertensive rabbits immediately after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and tested them versus calcium channel and beta-blockers.
The study consisted of six groups (N=30; five rabbits/group): (1) Control with no pretreatment, monocrotaline injected groups: (solutions were perfused following termination of CPB for 60 min); (2) Control for pulmonary hypertension (PHT); (3) isoproteronol; (4) VIP 10(-6) M; (5) VIP 10(-5) M; (6) nitroglycerine.
