'Slow pressor' hypertension from low-dose chronic angiotensin II infusion.

abstract：:1. The chronotropic and inotropic effects of the anti-anginal agent SG-75 (2-nicotinamidoethyl nitrate) and 1-verapamil were investigated in isolated blood-perfused canine atrial preparations. The compounds were administered via the cannulated sinus node artery. 2. SG-75 induced a selective negative inotropic as oppos...
