Effect of nicorandil upon different guinea-pig and rat isolated organ preparations in vitro.

چکیده
A study of the effect of nicorandil (N-2-(hydroxyethyl)nicotinamide nitrate, CAS 65141-46-0), a potassium channel and guanylatecyclase activator, upon preparations of rat was deferens and uterus, and guinea pig ileum was performed. Nicorandil does not modify rat isolated was deferens responses to noradrenaline (norepinephrine) and potassium. The drug exerts a non-competitive antagonist effect upon rat isolated uterus response to serotonin, histamine, oxytocin, and, at high concentrations, inhibits guinea-pig isolated ileum responses to acetylcholine, histamine, 4-aminopyridine and potassium.

Background: Noscapine is a phtalideisoquinoline alkaloid with known anti-tussive properties. Recently, some other pharmacological effects and new potential clinical applications have been proposed for the drug. Since there is no data regarding its cardiovascular effects, cardiovascular actions of Noscapine were investigated in the present study. Methods: In this experimental study,�the effe...
متن کاملBRONCHODILATORY AND AN TICHOLINERGIC EFFECTS OF Carum copticum ON ISOLATED GUINEA PIG TRACHEAL CHAINS
Carum copticum is a grassy and annual plant which is believed to have several therapeutic effects, including anti-asthmatic properties. We have therefore studied the bronchodilatory and anticholinergic effects of 4 rnL aqueous extract (AE), 0.0 5 mL ethanol extract (EE), and 0.0 0 5 mL essential oil (EO) of Carum copticum and 1 rnL of a 5 mM solution of its main ingredient, thymol (T), in ...
متن کاملThe Role of Nitric Oxide and Prostaglandins in the Effect of Adenosine on Contractility, Heart Rate and Coronary Blood Flow in Guinea Pig Isolated Heart
It is a well-established fact that adenosine and its receptor subtypes (A 1 and A ) are involved in changes of contractility, heart rate and coronary blood flow (CBF) under different circumstances. This study was conducted to evaluate the role of nitric oxide and prostaglandins in development of these changes. For this purpose, Nitro-L-Arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), and indomethacin as inhibit...
متن کاملEffect of Aqueous-Ethanolic Extract from Rosa damascena on Guinea Pig Isolated Heart
Objective(s) In the present study, the effects of aqueous-ethanolic extract from Rosa damascena on heart rate and contractility were examined. Materials and Methods Isolated guinea-pig hearts were perfused through aorta in a Langendorff mode. Heart rate (HR) and contractility were determined in the presence of four concentrations of the extract (0.1, 0.2, 0.4 and 1.0 mg %) and isoprenaline (...
متن کاملEffect of Sodium Valproate on Ouabain-Induced Arrhythmia in Isolated Guinea-Pig Atria
Sodium valproate (SV), an antiepileptic drug has several mechanism of action. It inhibits voltage sensitive Na+ channels and reduces intracellular Na accumulation. These actions are similar to that of both phenytoin and carbamazepine. We have investigated the direct cardiac action of SV and its effects on ouabain-induced arrhythmia in isolated guinea-pig atria. The guinea-pig atrium was dissect...
