Effects of Cholinergic Stimulation with Pyridostigmine Bromide on Chronic Chagasic Cardiomyopathic Mice
Figure 1
Heart rate responses to pharmacological autonomic blockade. Heart rate responses (ΔHR) to propranolol (sympathetic effect) (Panel (a)) or to atropine sulfate (vagal parasympathetic effect) (Panel (b)) expressed as mean ± S.E.M. and measured at the 6th month of observation and after one month of treatment (from the 5th to 6th month of infection) in noninoculated control (Con) or in T. cruzi-inoculated (Chg) freely moving C57BL/6j mice treated with pyridostigmine bromide (Pyrido) or vehicle (NT: nontreated animals). ( versus Con-NT; versus Chg-NT).
