Cardiac output in Xenopus laevis tadpoles during development and in response to an adenosine agonist

Cardiac output in Xenopus laevis tadpoles during development and in response to an adenosine agonist

The hypothesis is tested that the heart and arteries enlarge with increased cardiac output (CO) during development and volume overload. It is concluded that 5'-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine increases CO in Xenopus tadpoles through a combination of increased filling and accelerated growth.
