Abstract
Serotonin potentiated vagal negative chronotropic effect in rabbits and increased the synergistic action of autonomic nervous structures on cardiac function in frogs. Acetylcholine in low doses produced a positive chronotropic effect in frogs, which was related to activation of intracardiac adrenergic neurons. Simultaneous activation of the serotoninergic and cholinergic system suppressed heart function, but increased motor activity of pelvic smooth muscle organs.
