Inhibition of the vasodilator effect of hypercapnic acidosis by hypercalcemia in dogs and rats.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The vasodilator effect of local hypercapnic acidosis, produced by intra-arterial infusion of an acid buffer solution consisting of a mixture of glycine and hydrochloric acid, in the perfused hind limb and in the perfused gastrocnemius muscle of anesthetized dogs was examined at normal plasma calcium concentration and during elevation of the plasma calcium concentration produced by intra-arterial infusion of calcium chloride. Hypercalcemia inhibited the vasodilator action of hypercapnic acidosis so that the effect was not apparent until venous blood pH decreased below 7. The dilator effect of local application of acidified Ringer's solution on arterioles of the cremaster muscle of the rat was also inhibited by elevation of the plasma calcium concentration induced by intravenous administration of calcium chloride. The available evidence suggests that this inhibition of the dilator effect of hypercapnic acidosis by calcium ions is related to competition between calcium and hydrogen ions for binding at one or more cellular sites such as the sarcolemma, the sarcoplasmic reticulum, or the contractile proteins of vascular smooth muscle.

Synergistic effects of acute hypoxemia and hypercapnic acidosis in conscious dogs. Renal dysfunction and activation of the renin-angiotensin system.
The effects of acute hypoxemia and hypercapnic acidosis were examined in five unanesthetized dogs in which sodium intake was controlled at 80 mEq/24 hours for 4 days prior to study. Each animal was studied during combined acute hypoxemia and hypercapnic acidosis (Pao2 = 36 +/- 1 mm Hg, Paco2 = 52 +/- 1 mm Hg, pH = 7.18 +/- 0.02), acute hypoxemia alone (Pao2 = 32 +/- 1 mm Hg, Paco2 = 32 +/- 1mm ...

Lithium is an element which has been used as salts of chloride or carbonate for many years in the treatment of some psychological disorders such as mania, bipolar or schizophrenic diseases. Chronic application of lithium may induce some serious nephropathies such as natriuresis, renal tubular acidosis, tubulointerstitial nephritis progression to progressive chronic kidney disease and hypercalce...

متن کاملRight ventricular performance during increased afterload impaired by hypercapnic acidosis in conscious dogs.
Since heart failure may occur in the setting of lung dysfunction and CO2 retention with only modest increases in cardiac work load, we questioned whether myocardial function is impaired by hypercapnic acidosis. To determine the influence of hypercapnic acidosis on right ventricular function, we measured the effects of acute (2 hours) and chronic (2 weeks) hypercapnic acidosis on right ventricul...
متن کاملWhy does carbon dioxide produce analgesia?
Carbon dioxide (CO2) has been used to euthanatize laboratory animals because of its rapid analgesic and sedative effects. However, the mechanism of these effects is unclear. To investigate the anesthetic effect of CO2, we used isolated spinal cords of neonatal rats as an alternative to living animals. In this preparation, stimulation of the dorsal root mainly evokes two types of reflex potentia...
