Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of nicotine on cultured rat heart cells

TL;DR: Cells beat longer in cultures composed chiefly of M-cells than in unseparated cultures, and differences between the two types of cells, in response to higher concentrations of nicotine, were demonstrated by vacuole formation and nuclear changes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Injury produced by free fatty acids to lysosomes and mitochondria in cultured heart muscle and endothelial cells.

TL;DR: Protection of cultures for 24 hr with 50 μg/ml of hydrocortisone before the FFA at 5 × 10 −5 M provided significant protection only against stearate-induced lysosomal labilization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Toxicity of free fatty acids for cultured rat heart muscle and endothelioid cells. II. Unsaturated long-chain fatty acids.

TL;DR: The similarity in the effects of linolenic and arachidonic acids would appear to exclude prostaglandins as responsible toxic products.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stimulatory effect of nicotine on the metabolism of meprobamate.

TL;DR: Livers from mice treated for 2 days with nicotine metabolized meprobamate at a faster rate than did livers from control animals, and an increase in ataxic times was prevented by the administration of ethionine.
