RESUMO
Sepsis-induced cardiac dysfunction is a serious complication of sepsis with no effective treatment. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a regulator for energy metabolism in cells and plays a key role in the energy balance. Recent studies have shown that AMPK exerted a protective effect on sepsis-induced cardiac dysfunction, which was related to the regulation of inflammation, endothelial cells injury, energy metabolism, myocardial cells apoptosis and autophagy. Therefore, AMPK is a therapeutic target for sepsis-induced cardiac dysfunction.

Bepridil hydrochloride(Bep) hydrochloride is a new , long - acting antianginal and antiarrhythmic agent. Through the observation of ∑ST.NST.and NQ of ECG or nitro blue tetrazolium chloride staining, we studied the effect of Bep on liga-tion of the left coronary artery in rabbits and the myocardial ischemia induced by isopre-naline in rats. The results showed that in the groups treated with Hep andpropranolol theisoelectric level was facilitated. ∑ST.NST, NQ, thecreatine phosphokinase values and the weight percentage of infarcted myocardium were decreased. The myocardial ischemic injury was decreased by histopathological stud-
