Heart Autotransplantation: Effect on Myocardial Catecholamine and Histamine

T Cooper et al. Science. .

Abstract

Complete excision and reimplantation of the canine heart is followed by a fall in myocardial norepinephrine to negligible levels. These decreases are at- tributable to the sympathetic denervation which necessarily accompanies the operative procedure. Myocardial histamine levels in survivors of this operation were not significantly different from those of normal dogs.
