Effects of heptanol and carbenoxolone on noradrenaline induced contractions in guinea pig vas deferens.
We examined the effects of two putative gap junction blockers, heptanol and carbenoxolone, on noradrenaline-induced contractions in guinea pig vas deferens. The force generated due to the exogenously added noradrenaline (20 microM) consisted of two components: the tonic and the oscillatory. 2 mM heptanol abolished the oscillatory contractions and drastically suppressed both the maximum force (b...
متن کاملA comparative study on the effects of new opioid compounds and morphine on the contractility of guinea pig ileum and mouse vas deferens
Considering the clinical significance of opioids, especially their application for the treatment of severe painful conditions including cancer pain and the requirement for the synthesis of more specific drugs with lower side effects, this study was conducted to perform a preliminary investigation on six newly developed opioid drugs. Our aim was to introduce drugs that act selectively on the opi...
متن کاملEffects of calcium-entry modulators on the biphasic neurogenic contractions in the circular muscle of guinea pig vas deferens.
Effects of nifedipine (10(-8)-10(-6) M), verapamil (10(-6)-3 x 10(-5) M) and Bay k 8644 (10(-7) M) on the contractions induced by transmural nerve stimulation or agonists were investigated in the circular smooth muscle of guinea pig vas deferens using a ring preparation. Transmural stimulation (20 Hz for 20 sec) produced biphasic contractions consisting of initial phasic and secondary tonic com...
متن کاملEffect of heptanol on noradrenaline-induced contractions in rat vas deferens.
We have studied the effects of 1-heptanol and nifedipine on noradrenaline (NA)-induced contractions in order to explore the role of gap junctions and their interactions with L-type Ca2+ channel mediated [Ca2+]o entry in the generation of NA-induced contractions in the rat vas deferens. Application of 20 microM NA to rat vas deferens resulted in contractions with three different components, an i...
متن کاملeffects of first language on second language writing-a preliminary contrastive rhetoric study of farsi and english
to explore the idea the investingation proposed, aimed at finding whether the performances of the population of iranians students studying english in an efl context are consistent in l1 and l2 writing taks and whether there is a cross-linguistic transfer in this respect. in this regard the subjects were instructed to write four compositions-two in english and two in farsi-which consisted of an ...
