[Effects of adaptation to stress exposure and periodic hypoxia on bioelectric activity of cardiomyocytes of isolated heart in ischemia and reperfusion].

Action potential (AP) of cardiomyocytes was recorded in experiments on isolated perfused according to Langendorf rat hearts. The effect was estimated of preliminary adaptation to intermittent hypobaric hypoxia or to repeated short-term stress exposure on the resting potential (RP) and the amplitude and duration of action potential (APD) in global ischemia and reperfusion. It was shown that adaptation to hypoxia is more effective in prevention of ischemic fall of RP, AP and APD. In reperfusion, the parameters enumerated restored more quickly and efficiently in hearts from adapted to stress animals.
