A comparison of the facilitatory actions of 4-aminopyridine methiodide and 4-aminopyridine on neuromuscular transmission.
1 4-Aminopyridine methiodide (4-APMI), a quaternary analogue of aminopyridine (4-AP), was tested for neuromuscular facilitatory actions on the chick biventer cervicis and frog sartorius nerve-muscle preparations. 2 In the chick, 4-APMI (10(-4) to 10(-2) M) augmented indirectly elicited twitches and reversed tubocurarine-induced neuromuscular block. Reversal of tubocurarine block was observed af...
متن کاملEffects of 4-aminopyridine in myasthenia gravis.
A new drug, 4-aminopyridine, was prepared for use in humans and tested by repeated injections in six patients with myasthenia gravis. The drug caused improvement of muscle strength and neuromuscular transmission as demonstrated by clinical observations and repetitive electrical nerve stimulation. The drug was effective in cases without any other treatment as well as in cases undergoing treatmen...
متن کاملOptical triggered seizures using a caged 4-Aminopyridine
Animal models of epilepsy are critical not only for understanding the fundamental mechanism of epilepsy but also for testing the efficacy of new antiepileptic drugs and novel therapeutic interventions. Photorelease of caged molecules is widely used in biological research to control pharmacologic events with high spatio-temporal resolution. We developed a technique for in vivo optical triggering...
متن کاملEffects of 4-aminopyridine in Eaton Lambert Syndrome.
The effects of 4-aminopyridine (a non-anticholinesterase antagonist of curare-like agents) on the evoked muscle action potentials (EMAP) in a patient with Eaton Lambert Syndrome are reported. On two separate occasions the i.v. administration of 0.31 mg kg(-1) and 0.62 mg kg(-1) was followed by a 300% increase of EMAP for about 2 h without serious side-effects.
متن کامل4-Aminopyridine restores impaired hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction in endotoxemic mice.
BACKGROUND Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) is impaired during inflammatory lung processes such as pneumonia or the acute respiratory distress syndrome. Voltage-gated potassium channels play a central role in mediating HPV. The aim of this study was to determine whether 4-aminopyridine (4-AP), a known voltage-gated potassium channel inhibitor, may restore HPV in sepsis. METHODS The ef...
