Gaseous transmitters were assayed in rat blood during catecholamine-induced damage to the heart. Hypercatecholaminemia was modeled by single subcutaneous injection of 0.1% epinephrine hydrochloride in a dose of 2 mg/kg. The blood concentrations of NO, H2S, and CO were measured. The catecholamine-induced damage to the myocardium resulted in phasic changes in the blood levels of gaseous transmitters: CO concentration increased in 1 h, H2S increased in 24 h, and NO concentration increased in 72 h after injection.
