Accumulation of norepinephrine (NE) by rat organs in vivo.

abstract：:Opioid antagonists have been shown to prevent the occurrence of lethal arrhythmias following coronary reperfusion. In this study, we have examined the effect of a new, long-lasting, potent opioid antagonist, nalmefene, and congeners in the prevention of reperfusion arrhythmias in dogs. Nalmefene given at a dose of 1 m...
