Characterisation of alpha-adrenoceptors of rat superior mesenteric-portal vein.

چکیده
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 the same as those seen with these agents on rat and mouse vas deferens. It is suggested that, as in vas deferens, alphaI postsynaptic and alpha2 presynaptic receptors exist in rat superior mesenteric-portal vein and that these receptors may be sufficiently sensitive in vein for their existence to be of significance in the action of these agents at clinical doses.

Aneurysm of superior mesenteric vein
Introduction: Venous aneurysms and pseudoaneurysms are rare entities; portal system aneurysms are shown as focal dilatations of the portal venous system. Superior mesenteric vein aneurysms are extremely rare. Case Report: We describe a case of superior mesenteric vein aneurysm in an asymptomatic 73yearold female.

متن کاملEnhanced visualization of the portal vein system in superior mesenteric arterial portography using prostaglandin E1.
The portal vein system was clearly visualized in superior mesenteric arterial portography using prostaglandin E1. Angiographic examination was performed in 68 patients with various liver diseases during the 2 year period from 1980 to 1981. Twenty microgram of prostaglandin E1 was injected into the superior mesenteric artery 30 seconds before injection of 60 ml of contrast medium. The main porta...

متن کاملEffect of isoproterenol on vascular adrenergic neurotransmission in prehypertensive and hypertensive spontaneously hypertensive rats.
Accepted August 24, 1984 It is generally accepted that the release of noradrenaline from adrenergic nerves is influenced via various presynaptic receptors (1, 2). Some of these modulation mechanisms may be involved in the development and maintenance of hypertension. Our previous reports in fact have demonstrated that the adenosine and 5 hydroxytryptamine mediated inhibitory modulation is suppre...
متن کاملPotential use of left renal vein graft in pancreaticoduodenectomy combined with long segmental resection of the superior mesenteric-splenic-portal vein confluence.
CONTEXT Various techniques for reconstruction after superior mesenteric-splenic-portal vein confluence resection during pancreaticoduodenectomy have been introduced. A certain kind of vascular grafting may be necessary especially when long segmental resection of superior mesenteric-splenic-portal vein confluence is required. CASE REPORT We herein report the cases of two patients who underwent...
