Dose-dependent responses to L-isoprenaline of spontaneous activity and plateau height in Purkinje fibres can be mimicked closely by the PDE-inhibitor IBMX. Simultaneous applications of sympathomimetic amines and IBMX result in potentiated responses. The results support the hypothesis that cyclic-AMP is the common mediator of positive chronotropic and inotropic effects induced by beta-sympathomimetic amines.
