Adrenergic and dopaminergic control of the canine paw microcirculation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Basal isolated canine paw blood flow was equally distributed between arteriovenous anastomosis (AVA) and capillary circulations. Norepinephrine decreased AVA flow by 92% and capillary flow by 41%. Dopamine significantly reduced AVA flow by 94% compared to baseline with a 37% reduction in capillary flow. However, with alpha-adrenergic blockade dopamine decreased AVA flow 66% while capillary flow increased 42%. Isoproterenol increased capillary flow almost twofold and appeared to decrease AVA flow, although the latter was statistically insignificant. Differential effects of adrenergic and dopaminergic agonists on canine paw AVA and capillary blood flow suggest the existence of independent regulation of these components of the microcirculation.

The effects of Adrenergic agents on the dopaminergic-induced sniffing
There is evidence indicating that adrenoceptor mechanisms may influence some of the behaviors in rat. However the role of adrenoceptor agents on sniffing has not been identified. In the present study, the influence of adrenoceptor agents on sniffing induced by apomorphine and amphetamine has been investigated. Male Albino rats, weighing 150-250 g were used for all experiments. The behavior wa...
متن کاملPossible Involvement of Glutamatergic, Adrenergic and Dopaminergic System in Methylphenidate - induced Motor Activity and Mood-related Alterations in Rats
Background and Objective: Methylphenidate (MPH), as a central nervous system stimulant, is often used to manage hyperactive disorders. The literature is scarce regarding the behavioral consequences of chronic MPH treatment and the role of involved receptors. Thus, in the current study involved receptors in MPH induced-anxiety, depression and motor activity disorders were evaluated. Materials a...
متن کاملComparing of the Effects of Hypericin and Synthetic Antidepressants on the Expression of Morphine-Induced Conditioned Place Preference
The effect of hypericin on the expression of morphine-induced conditioned place preference (CPP) was investigated and compared with the effect of the synthetic antidepressants. The CPP paradigms took place over six days using an unbiased procedure. The results demonstrate that intra-peritoneal (IP) injection of morphine sulfate (2.5, 5 and 10 mg/Kg) significantly induce the CPP in rat. Intra-pe...

متن کاملVasoconstrictive versus vasodilatory effects of alpha-2 adrenergic agonists on the spinal microcirculation.
To the Editor:—I read with interest the study about the effect of a-2 adrenergic agonists on the spinal pial microcirculation in dogs. Using an in vivo technique, the authors observed a significant constriction of both pial arterioles and venules after topical application of clonidine or dexmedetomidine. They suggested that a-2 agonists might be superior to epinephrine or phenylephrine as local...
