Pharmacokinetic parameters and haemodynamic actions of midodrine in young volunteers.
In two groups of volunteers pharmacological parameters of the antihypotensive drug midodrine have been investigated. The first group of 12 male healthy volunteers received 2.5 mg midodrine hydrochloride intravenously, as drinking solution or as tablet according to a randomized cross-over design. Plasma and urine samples were analyzed for midodrine and its main metabolite ST 1059 by high-perform...
متن کاملChronic cardiovascular and renal actions of leptin: role of adrenergic activity.
This study was designed to determine the role of changes in adrenergic activity in mediating the chronic cardiovascular, renal, and metabolic actions of leptin. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were implanted with catheters for mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) measurements and IV infusions of either vehicle (n= 7) or alpha- and beta-adrenergic receptor antagonists, terazosin and propran...
متن کاملSympathetic nervous system mediation of acute cardiovascular actions of gamma 2-melanocyte-stimulating hormone.
Peptides of the pro-opiocortin class produce pronounced cardiovascular and natriuretic actions. We have investigated the acute cardiovascular effects of one of the most potent members of this class, gamma 2-melanocyte stimulating hormone (gamma 2-MSH), in rats. Pressor actions of gamma 2-MSH administered systemically were eliminated by ganglionic blockade with chlorisondamine. Peripheral cholin...
متن کاملCardiovascular Actions of Sodium
Certain chemical and pharmacological properties of sodium nitroprusside, a cheap, readily available chemical, have been described. It is a powerful hypotensive agent when given intravenously to hypertensive patients. It is no more effective than the sodium thiocyanate into which it is converted when given by mouth. Prolonged infusion has proved highly effective in the treatment of hypertensive ...
متن کاملCardiovascular actions of neurotrophins.
Neurotrophins were christened in consideration of their actions on the nervous system and, for a long time, they were the exclusive interest of neuroscientists. However, more recently, this family of proteins has been shown to possess essential cardiovascular functions. During cardiovascular development, neurotrophins and their receptors are essential factors in the formation of the heart and c...
