Contents of aldosterone and electrolytes in blood plasma and the myocardium of rats after single physical exertion during acute alcoholic intoxication]

It was proved in experiments with male Wistar rats that acute alcohol intoxication caused significant changes in electrolytes balance in blood plasma and myocardium remaining for a long time after ethanol injection. SPL test makes it possible to reveal inadequate reaction of blood plasma aldosterone in alcohol injected rats. This fact may be considered as the fact of involving extracardiac component of compensation of myocardial functional insufficiency conditioned mainly by electrolyte unbalance. The tolerance to physical loading is significantly higher in alcohol injected rats than in intact animals.
