AIMS The depressor action of the centrally antihypertensive drug moxonidine has been attributed to activation of I(1)-imidazoline receptor in the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM). The objective of this study was to determine the role of the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) mechanisms in the RVLM in mediating the effect of moxonidine in anaesthetized normotensive rats. METHODS AND RESULTS The re...
alpha2-Adrenergic receptor (AR)-selective compounds produce antihypertensive and antinociceptive effects. Moxonidine alleviates hypertension in multiple species, including humans. This study demonstrates that intrathecally administered moxonidine produces antinociception in mice. Antinociception was detected via the (52.5 degrees C) tail-flick and Substance P (SP) nociceptive tests. Moxonidine ...
The antihypertensive drugs moxonidine and clonidine are α2-adrenoceptor and imidazoline (I1) agonists. Previous results from our laboratory have shown that moxonidine can act in the commissural nucleus of the solitary tract (commNTS). In addition, some studies have shown that GABA or glutamate receptor blockade in the RVLM blunted the hypotension produced by these antihypertensive agents in spo...
AIMS The central antihypertensive drug moxonidine lowers blood pressure (BP) through stimulating an imidazoline receptor within the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM). Nitric oxide (NO) generated by the inducible NO synthase (iNOS) in the RVLM has been suggested to be involved in tonic sympathetic inhibition. The aim of this study was to determine the role of NO generated by iNOS in mediating...
Numerous studies support the concept that centrally acting antihypertensive drugs, such as imidazolines, mediate sympathoinhibition not only via activation of central nervous alpha2-adrenoceptors (alpha2-AR) but also via imidazoline-1 receptors (I1-R). An additional presynaptic involvement in sympathetic neurotransmission of imidazolines, via I1-R independent of alpha2-AR, is still controversia...
We used an intracellular recording technique in vitro to investigate the effects of moxonidine on neurons in the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) with electrophysiological properties similar to premotor sympathetic neurons in vivo. These neurons were classified as firing regularly and irregularly, according to previous reports. Moxonidine is a sympathoinhibitory and antihypertensive agent t...
1. I1 non-adrenoceptor, imidazoline receptor agonists, such as moxonidine, increase urine flow rate and sodium excretion following infusion into the renal artery. The functions of these agonists in genetic and acquired models of hypertension have not been determined. 2. We therefore studied the renal effects of two known non-adrenoceptor, imidazoline receptor agonists, rilmenidine and moxonidin...
BACKGROUND The autonomic system is an important determinant of atrial arrhythmogenesis. Current evidence indicates that a combined sympathovagal drive is most commonly responsible for eliciting atrial fibrillation (AF) episodes. The purpose of this study was to test whether moxonidine, a centrally acting sympathoinhibitory agent, can lead to a reduction in postablation AF recurrence. METHODS ...
Although beta-adrenergic blockade is beneficial in heart failure, inhibition of central sympathetic outflow using moxonidine has been associated with increased mortality. In the present study, we studied the acute effects of the imidazoline-receptor agonist moxonidine on haemodynamics, NA (noradrenaline) kinetics and myocardial metabolism. Fifteen patients with CHF (chronic heart failure) were ...
Imidazoline receptors are expressed widely in the CNS. In the present study, whole-cell patch-clamp recordings were made from medium spiny neurons in dorsal striatum slices from the rat brain, and the roles of I1-imidazoline receptors in the modulation of synaptic transmission were studied. Moxonidine, an I1-imidazoline receptor agonist, decreased the GABAA receptor-mediated IPSCs in a concentr...
