In our study, it was aimed to investigate the effects of oxytocin, oxytocin receptor antagonist
atosiban and oxytocin-atosiban injected to rats on carbonic anhydrase (CA) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE)
enzyme activities in the heart of rats. For this purpose, four different groups (n = 6) consisting of a total of 24
rats, were formed. (Control group, oxytocin treated group, atosiban treated group, and oxytocin and atosiban
combination treated group). The rats were necropsied after 60 minute intraperitoneal injection of the chemicals into
the rats. Cardiac tissue of rats was removed. The enzyme activity averages of the groups are statistically compared.
According to this, while the activity of carbonic anhydrase enzyme in heart tissue of rats decreases in oxytocin
and atosiban given groups, in the combination group with oxytocin and atosiban it was seen that the reduction
was relatively less according to the others. Acetylcholinesterase activity decreases in both groups of oxytocin and
atosiban which given groups did not show any significant change in the group in which oxytocin and atosiban were
given together.
