Uneven distribution of postjunctional alpha 1-and alpha 2-like adrenoceptors in canine arterial and venous smooth muscle.
We studied isolated canine arteries and veins to compare the pharmacological properties of their postjunctional alpha-adrenoceptors. Rings of femoral and splenic arteries and of femoral and saphenous veins were mounted for isometric tension recording in organ chambers filled with Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate solution. The four blood vessels contracted when exposed to methoxamine, norepinephrine, ph...
متن کاملCharacterisation of alpha-adrenoceptors of rat superior mesenteric-portal vein.
The effect of specific alpha[ or alpha2 adrenoceptor agents on the response of rat superior mesenteric-portal vein to field stimulation was investigated. In. a dose related manner, phenylephrine (alpha[ agonist) and yohimbine (alpha2 antagonists) increased while prazosin (alpha[ antagonist) and clonidine (alpha2 agonist) decreased the response of the vein to field stimulation. These effects are...
متن کاملAlpha 1-adrenoceptors in human corneal epithelium.
Specific binding of the potent, selective alpha 1-adrenoceptor antagonist 3H-prazosin was demonstrated in cultured human corneal epithelial cells. Specific binding of the radioligand was concentration-dependent between 0.5 and 6 nM, with apparent saturation of receptor sites seen at higher concentrations. The cells exhibited a maximum binding capacity for 3H-prazosin of 225 fmol/mg of cellular ...
متن کاملChanges in postjunctional alpha-adrenoceptors during postnatal growth in rabbit arteries.
The pharmacological characteristics of the postjunctional alpha-adrenoceptors of vascular smooth muscle were studied in ring segments of thoracic aorta, superior mesenteric, and central ear arteries of 4- and 8-week-old, and young adult (12- to 16-week-old) rabbits. Norepinephrine (alpha 1, alpha 2-agonist), phenylephrine (alpha 1-agonist), and UK 14,304-18 (alpha 1-agonist) caused a concentrat...
متن کاملNeuronally released norepinephrine does not preferentially activate postjunctional alpha 1-adrenoceptors in human blood vessels in vitro.
Human isolated digital arteries and metatarsal veins, obtained postmortem, have been used to compare the effects of alpha-adrenoceptor antagonists on contractile responses to nerve stimulation. The antagonists used were prazosin, rauwolscine, BE 2254, and yohimbine. Rauwolscine (alpha 2-antagonist), as well as prazosin and BE 2254 (alpha 1-antagonists), in concentrations of 10(-9), 10(-8), and ...
