INFLUENCES OF DIFFERENT ADRENOCEPTOR AGONISTS AND ANTAGONISTS ON AMPHETAMINE- INDUCED CLIMBING IN MICE
Administration of apomorphine and amphetamine induces climbing behavior in mice due to stimulation of brain dopamine receptors. In the present study, the effects of adrenoceptor agonists and antagonists on amphetamine-induced climbing have been investigated. Intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of different doses of amphetamine (2,4 and 8 mglkg) induced climbing in mice (p<O.OOO 1). The u2- ad...
متن کاملAdrenoceptor Antagonists
Drugs that produce responses by interacting with adrenoceptors are referred to as adrenoceptor agonists or adrenergic agonists. Norepinephrine and isoproterenol are examples of such compounds. Agents that inhibit responses mediated by adrenoceptor activation are known as adrenoceptor antagonists, adrenergic antagonists, or adrenergic blocking agents. Prazosin and propranolol are examples of rec...
متن کاملCONTRACTIONS DUE TO α-ADRENOCEPTOR AGONISTS ARE MEDIATED BY α1-ADRENOCEPTORS IN RAT CAROTID ARTERY
Some large vessels have a mixed functional population of postjunctional α1- and α 2-adrenoceptors. The purpose of the work presented here was to investigate the population of postjunctional α -adrenoceptors in the rat isolated common carotid artelY Male Wi star rats were killed by overdose with pentobarbitone sodium, after which the left and right common carotid arteries were removed. Rings...
متن کاملThe Role of α1-Adrenoceptor Antagonists in the Treatment of Prostate and Other Cancers
This review evaluates the role of α-adrenoceptor antagonists as a potential treatment of prostate cancer (PCa). Cochrane, Google Scholar and Pubmed were accessed to retrieve sixty-two articles for analysis. In vitro studies demonstrate that doxazosin, prazosin and terazosin (quinazoline α-antagonists) induce apoptosis, decrease cell growth, and proliferation in PC-3, LNCaP and DU-145 cell lines...
متن کاملTheoretical proton affinities of α1 adrenoceptor ligands
A systematic study has been performed of the proton affinity of a large family of agonists and antagonists of the α1-adrenoceptor at the B3LYP/6-31G* level of theory. After a conformational search, all the N atoms were considered as protonation sites and protonation energy values were determined. The inclusion of solvation by means of the Onsager model yielded stabilization in the proton affini...
