Drug and Ion Effects in Frog Muscle

چکیده

Procaine, cocaine, pyribenzamine, antistine, and phosphate decrease the uptake of water by frog sartorii in a Ringer solution in which potassium has been substituted for sodium; all but the last two leave the swelling in hypotonic Ringer practically unaltered. They also decrease the depolarizing action of potassium. These effects are considered indicative of reduced membrane permeability to potassium.

Effects of diltiazem on calcium ion translocation: a study on isolated frog rectus abdominis muscle.

Diltiazem, a calcium channel blocker was studied to observe its effects on the acetylcholine contractile responses of isolated frog rectus abdominis muscle. This response was modified in a dual manner i.e., initial potentiation, followed by inhibition. Diltiazem may not have anticholinesterase like mechanism, as it potentiated the responses to both acetylcholine and succinylcholine. Rectus musc...

Ion Selective Carbon Paste Electrode For The Determination Of Flavoxate Muscle Relaxant Drug In Pharmaceutical Formulation

Abstract The utility of carbon paste electrode for the determination of flavoxate HCl modified with flavoxate-tetraphenylborate (FLX-TPB) and flavoxate-phosphotungestic acid (FLX-PTA) ion-pairs in batch mode is demonstrated. The electrodes revealed a Nernstian response over a wide concentration ranges 1.39×10-5-1x10-2 mol L-1 and1×10-5-1x10-2 mol L-1 using FLX-TPB and FLX-PTA, respectively. The...

Structure-Activity Relationships of Several Cardiotonic Steroids with Respect to Inhibition of Ion Transport in Frog Muscle

Cesium uptake by sodium-loaded frog sartorius muscles was inhibited 100% by 10(-6)M ouabain and 10(-6)M cymarin. The doses for 50% inhibition of cesium uptake by five cardiotonic aglycones were 1.5 x 10(-6)M for strophanthidin, 2 x 10(-7)M for telocinobufagin, 1.6 x 10(-6) for digitoxigenin, 2.4 x 10(-6)M for periplogenin, and 6.3 x 10(-6)M for uzarigenin. Because of the limited solubility of s...
