It was found that the Ca2+ influx could be inhibited significantly (P<O. 01) by verapamil (1 μmol/L) after infection of heart cells for 48h. However, when the cultured heart cells infected with CVB3 and treated with verapamil (Iμmol/L and 10 nmo/L) at the same time for 48h, the amounts of CVB3-RNA in myocytes were significantly higher than that in infected control group (P<O. 05). These phenomena suggest that the increase of Ca2+ influx of cultured heart cells infected with CVB3 could be inhibited by some calcium antagonists, e. g. verapamil at the early stage. On the other hand, verapamil might accelerate viral replication in myocardium. Thus, although verapamil could be beneficial for decreasing the secondary Ca2+ damages and improve the myocardial electric activity, it isn’t a sensible choice for therapy in early stage of virus infection with cardiac symptoms.展开更多
