Abstract
Single intravenous injection of antidepressant tetrindol (1 and 10 mg/kg), a reversible monoamine oxidase A inhibitor, dose-dependently decreased heart rate and mean arterial pressure (in a concentration of 10 mg/kg) in alert NMRI mice and Sprague-Dawley rats. Nitric oxide synthase blockade with L-NAME attenuated tetrindol-induced bradycardia in rats and completely abolished this effect in mice.
