Sodium lactate reversal of electrophysiological effects of imipramine in guinea-pig ventricular myocardium.

abstract：:The phylogenetically old renin-angiotensin-system (RAS) was originally described as a circulating hormonal system and a main cardiovascular regulator. However, there also exist 'local RASs' which are situated in cardiovascular as well as non-cardiovascular tissues where they are involved in physiological and patho-phy...
