چکیده

Clonidine, moxonidine, and rilmenidine are centrally acting antihypertensive agents that lower arterial pressure by inhibiting the tonic activity of sympathoexcitatory neurons in the rostral ventrolateral medulla. Competing hypotheses have been put forward by different investigators to explain the sympathoinhibition evoked by "imidazoline drugs": either via central actions at α2-adrenergic receptors or novel I1-imidazoline receptors. These different perspectives are presented in the accompanying reviews.

Effect of Tizanidine, Rilmenidine, and Yohimbine on Naloxon-Induced Morphine Withdrawal Syndrome in Mice

In this study using clonidine (a mixed ?2 /I1 receptors agonist), tizanidine (pure ?2-receptor agonist), rilmenidine (I1 receptor agonist) and yohimbine (?2-receptor antagonist), we tried to clarify the role of imidazoline and ?2-receptors in morphine withdrawal syndrome. Morphine-dependence was induced by administration of increasing doses of morphine in mice. After the last administration of ...

Cardiovascular effects of clonidine-like drugs in pithed rabbits.

Administration (3 to 100 microg/kg IV) of clonidine, rilmenidine, and an imidazoline derivative, 2-(2-chlorophenylamino)imidazoline, in pithed nonstimulated rabbits caused a dose-dependent increase in mean arterial pressure without affecting heart rate. Prazosin (0.1 mg/kg IV) almost abolished the pressor responses to 2-(2-chlorophenylamino)imidazoline, partially inhibited those induced by clon...

The effects of imidazoline compounds on nociception in animal pain model

The discovery of imidazoline ligands has opened up a new field of study. The investigation of imidazoline actions independent of adrenoceptors started in the mid 1980s. Imidazoline receptors are classified in several subtypes, I1, I2 and I3 binding sites. Although imidazoline sites have been the subjects of research for several years, but there is still controversy about their actions especiall...
