Summary

Substances creating prevalence of the catecholamine system (iprazid) or of the acetylcholine system (proserine, reserpine) were administered to rats with experimental coarctation of aorta. The evidence proved that proserine and reserpine increase the degree of hypertrophy. The results thus obtained are examined in the light of interrelations between the contractile function level of the myocardium and its hypertrophy.
