1. After a single injection of 40 mg kg-1 of isoprenaline to the carp, lysophospholipids appear in the tissue of the heart ventricle, ethanolamine plasmalogens increase and choline plasmalogens decrease; phosphatidylinositol is lowered in the spongious layer only. 2. Daily administration of 5 mg kg-1 of the drug leads, after 5 doses, to a dramatic decrease of the diphosphatidylglycerol content; during the subsequent 5 and 10 doses a return to normal values occurs. Shifts in plasmalogens are similar to those found after a single high dose. Some other phospholipids change significantly. 3. All changes reveal that the spongious musculature is more sensitive to the drug than the compact one.
