چکیده

Experiments were performed to determine (1) whether intravenously administered aminophylline inhibits the coronary vasodilating effects of intravenous or intracoronary administration of dipyridamole or adenosine and (2) whether aminophylline locally administered in the coronary artery inhibits the vasodilating action of adenosine given intravenously or injected into the coronary artery. Coronary vasodilator responses to dipyridamole or adenosine were determined before and after administration of aminophylline. Intravenous aminophylline was found to inhibit coronary vasodilatation induced by intravenous or intracoronary dipyridamole or adenosine. After intravenous aminophylline, adenosine administered intravenously or into the coronary artery was 2.5 to 4 times less effective in inducing coronary vasodilatation. Aminophylline injected locally into the coronary artery was also effective in inhibiting coronary vasodilatation induced by intravenous and intracoronary adenosine. The mechanism of this inhibitory phenomenon has not been elucidated. ADDITIONAL

Dipyridamole dilates large coronary arteries in conscious dogs.

The effects of 0.25 mg/kg dipyridamole on left ventricular (LV) pressures, LV dP/dt, heart rate, aortic pressures, left circumflex coronary blood flow, and left circumflex coronary arterial diameters and on calculations of late diastolic coronary resistance and large coronary cross-sectional area were studied in 15 conscious dogs. Injection of dipyridamole, a drug that has a mechanism of action...

It is unclear how methylxanthines cause bronchodilation; almost all act to block adenosine receptors. Aminophylline has been shown to reduce cerebral blood flow, probably by antagonizing the vasodilator effects of adenosi...

Dipyridamole echocardiography test in patients with normal or near normal coronary arteries.

We read with great interest the paper by Sicari et al. dealing with the prognostic value of dipyridamole echocardiography test in patients with chest pain syndrome and angiographically normal or near normal coronary arteries and the accompanying editorial by Marwick. This study, based in a large cohort with long-term follow-up, shows that dipyridamole echocardiography can identify a subgroup wi...
