Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor antidepressants (SSRIs) exert depressant effects on cardiac myocytes and vascular smooth muscle cells by inhibiting Ca2+ channels. We hypothesized that the SSRIs fluoxetine and citalopram affect the contractile activity of intestinal smooth muscle by interfering with Ca2+ entry and (or) signaling pathways. The effects of fluoxetine and citalopram on contractions of guinea-pig ileum longitudinal muscle-myenteric plexus preparations (LMMP) were compared with the effects of the voltage-operated Ca2+ channel inhibitors nifedipine and diltiazem. In a concentration-dependent manner, nifedipine, diltiazem, fluoxetine, and citalopram elicited relaxation of LMMPs contracted by electrical field stimulation (EC50 values of 4 x 10(-7) M, 1.4 x 10(-6) M, 1.4 x 10(-5), and 6.8 x 10(-6) M, respectively). Nifedipine, diltiazem, fluoxetine, and citalopram also relaxed LMMPs contracted with a depolarizing concentration of KCl (48 mM; EC50 values of 1.8 x 10(-8) M, 1.4 x 10(-7) M, 3.7 x 10(-6) M, and 6.3 x 10(-6), respectively), a response that could be reversed by increasing the extracellular Ca2+ concentration (2.5-30 mM). These data suggest that fluoxetine and citalopram elicit relaxation of intestinal smooth muscle, likely by inhibiting Ca2+ channel(s). This effect may be of clinical importance. 相似文献

1. Ciliary beat frequency in epithelial outgrowths from cultured explants of Rana pipiens palate changed markedly from second to second. 2. Acetylcholine (10(-8) to 10(-3) M) and substance P (1.35 x 10(-7) to 1.35 x 10(-5) M) increased and stabilized ciliary beat frequency. The effect of acetylcholine and part of the effect of substance P were blocked by atropine (10(-4) M). 3. Acetylcholine appears to act directly and substance P both directly and indirectly through the release of acetylcholine. 相似文献

By immunohistochemistry galanin-like immunoreactivity and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP)-like immunoreactivity were found in nerve cell bodies mostly in the submucous plexus and in nerve fibres in the mucosa, submucosa and muscularis including the myenteric plexus of the porcine ileum and were found to co-exist in most of these structures. Using isolated, perfused porcine ileum we studied the release of galanin and VIP in response to electrical stimulation of the mixed periarterial nerves or to intraarterial infusions of different neuroactive agents. Nerve stimulation (4-10 Hz) inhibited the basal release of galanin and VIP from the ileum (to 69 +/- 6 and 62 +/- 6% of basal release). After infusion of the alpha-adrenergic blocker, phentolamine, (10(-6) M) electrical stimulation increased the release of both galanin and VIP (to 140 +/- 12 and 133 +/- 13% of basal output). This increase was abolished by atropine (10(-6) M) and by hexamethonium (3.10(-5) M). Infusion of norepinephrine (10(-6) M) inhibited, whereas acetylcholine (10(-6) M) stimulated the release of both peptides. The effect of the latter was abolished by atropine. The inhibitory effect of nerve stimulation was not influenced by atropine. Our results suggest that the galanin- and VIP-producing intrinsic neurons receive inhibitory signals by noradrenergic nerve fibers and stimulatory signals mediated by cholinergic nerves, possibly via a cholinergic interneuron. 相似文献

In the present study, we investigated the effect of the crude latex of Carica papaya L. (CPX) on isolated guinea pig ileal strips. CPX (0.5-512 microg/ml) caused concentration-dependent contraction of ileal strips suspended in Tyrode solution. The concentration of atropine (0.69 microM) that significantly blocked the contractile effect of acetylcholine on the isolated guinea pig ileum showed no significant effect on CPX- and histamine-induced contractions of the ileal strips. Mepyramine (87.6 nM) significantly blocked the contractile effect of histamine and CPX on the ileum. The same concentration of mepyramine, however, had no significant effect on acetylcholine-induced contraction of the isolated ileal strips. Removal of Ca2+ from the bathing medium abolished ileal contractions induced by acetylcholine, histamine and CPX. All the test substances were able to provoke ileal contractions after replacement of the Ca(2+)-free solution with Tyrode solution. Furthermore, 10(-5) M of nifedipine, a Ca(2+)-entry antagonist, reversibly inhibited the contractile effect of all the test substances on the ileal strips. Results of this study together appear to show that CPX-induced contraction of the isolated guinea pig ileum is mediated via H1-receptors and dependent on extracellular Ca2+ influx. 相似文献

The effects of alpha-adrenoceptor agonists and antagonists on contractions of the ABRM of M. edulis were examined. Naphazoline (10(-11)-10(-7)M) as well as octopamine potentiated both contractions in response to ACh and to repetitive electrical stimulation with brief pulses, while clonidine (10(-12)-10(-6)M), imidazole (10(-4)-10(-3)M) and tolazoline (10(-6)-10(-4)M) potentiated only the contraction in response to repetitive electrical stimulation. Potentiating actions of octopamine and naphazoline on ACh contraction were blocked by tolazoline but were little affected by clonidine and imidazole. Potentiating after-effect of repetitive electrical stimulation on subsequent ACh-contraction was not affected by clonidine and imidazole but was blocked by tolazoline. These results suggest that in the ABRM there are probably at least two classes of alpha-like receptors for octopamine; one may be on the muscle fibres and the other may be on the excitatory nerve terminals. Activation of the latter class of receptors may result in enhancement of ACh release from the terminals. 相似文献

Naloxone-dependent effects of Met-enkephalin (10(-8) M) on the spontaneous and electrically induced mechanical activities were studied in longitudinal and circular preparations isolated from the cat duodenum, jejunum and ileum. Met-Enkephalin changed the spontaneous activity of all preparations tested with the exception of the circular preparations from the ileum. Met-Enkephalin-induced responses of the longitudinal preparations from the ileum were abolished by treatment with tetrodotoxin (10(-7) M), while the responses of both longitudinal and circular preparations from the duodenum and jejunum were only partially depressed, being resistant to tetrodotoxin components. The latter were most pronounced in the duodenum. The neurogenic electrically induced (0.5 msec, 5 Hz, 150 pulses) responses of all the preparations consisted mainly of contractile components which were significantly and naloxone-dependently reduced by Met-enkephalin (10(-8) M). The contractile components of the responses, which were reduced by Met-enkephalin, were entirely abolished by atropine (3 x 10(-6) M). Both Met-enkephalin and atropine inhibitory effects on the neurogenic responses were more pronounced in the ileum. Met-Enkephalin was found in nerve fibers of the myenteric plexus distributed mainly among the circular muscle. Single immunoreactive nerve fibers were observed in the longitudinal muscle layer of the duodenum but not in the jejunum and ileum. The distribution of Met-enkephalin-like immunoreactivity along the small intestine did not show significant differences among the three intestinal regions tested. The results obtained suggest that Met-enkephalin can modulate the mechanical activity of the cat small intestine, inhibiting cholinergic transmission and/or activating smooth muscle opioid receptors.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Lithium is known to synergize the action of cholinomimetics in the CNS such that pilocarpine induces seizures in low concentration (1/13th of per se dose) in rats. The present study was undertaken to see if lithium priming also enhances the peripheral effects of acetylcholine and pilocarpine i.e. change in blood pressure in rats and contractions of the isolated guinea pig ileum. In anaesthetized rats the blood pressure was recorded from cannulated carotid artery connected through the pressure transducer to Coulbourn polygraph. The blood pressure response of pilocarpine was not different either in magnitude or in duration when administered 1, 2 and 4 h after lithium chloride (3 meq/kg) pretreatment as compared to the control. Similarly acetylcholine effect remained unchanged after lithium chloride priming. In the isolated guinea pig ileum experiments, ileum was incubated for 1 h in different concentrations of lithium chloride and effect on acetylcholine induced contractions were observed. Lithium in concentration of 2.8 x 10(-3) M had no effect on acetylcholine induced contractions while incubation with higher concentrations of 1.4 x 10(-2) M and 2.8 x 10(-2) M significant inhibition of acetylcholine contractions were observed. At this concentration, histamine induced contractions were also inhibited. The results indicate that lithium does not synergize the action of cholinomimetics in the periphery as that seen in the CNS. The inhibition of acetylcholine and histamine induced contractions in guinea pig ileum at high concentration of lithium seems to be non-specific effect. 相似文献

A group of alkyl 7,7-dihalo-3-methyl-5-(2- or 3-nitrophenyl)-2-azabicyclo[4.1.0]hept-3-ene-4-carboxylates were prepared by reaction of dihalocarbenes (:CX(2), X=Br, Cl) with alkyl 2-methyl-4-(2- or 3-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylates. In vitro calcium channel antagonist activities were determined using a guinea pig ileum longitudinal smooth muscle assay. The title compounds exhibited weaker CC antagonist activity (10(-5) to 10(-7)M range) than the reference drug nifedipine (1.4 x 10(-8)M). Structure-activity relationships showed that the position (ortho or meta) of the nitro-substituent on the C-5 phenyl ring, the size (van der Waal's radius for Br and Cl are 1.95 and 1.80A, respectively) and/or electronegativity (Cl>Br) of the C-7 geminal halogen atoms do not appear to have a significant effect on CC antagonist activity. In contrast, the effect of the alkyl ester substituent was more pronounced where compounds having a Me or Et alkyl ester group showed superior potency (IC(50) in the 10(-7)M range) relative to the reference drug nifedipine (IC(50)=1.40 x 10(-8)M). Replacement of a 2-methyl-3-methoxycarbonylvinyl moiety present in nifedipine by a bioisosteric geminal-dihalocyclopropyl moiety provided a novel class of calcium channel antagonists that do not exhibit any inotropic effect on guinea pig atria. 相似文献

By immunohistochemistry, CGRP-like immunoreactive (CGRP-LI) nerve fibres were found in the lamina propria along small vessels and in the lamina muscularis mucosae in the porcine ileum. Immunoreactive nerve cell bodies were found in the submucous and myenteric plexus. Upon HPLC-analysis of ileal extracts, CGRP-LI corresponded entirely to porcine CGRP plus smaller amounts of oxidised CGRP. Using isolated vascularly perfused segments of the ileum, we studied the release of CGRP-LI in response to electrical stimulation of the mixed extrinsic periarterial nerves and to infusion of different neuroblockers. In addition, the effect of infusion of capsaicin was studied. The basal output of CGRP-LI was 2.9+/-0.7 pmol/5 min (mean+/-S.D.). Electrical nerve stimulation (8 Hz) significantly increased the release of CGRP-LI to 167+/-16% (mean+/-S.E.M.) of the basal output (n=13). This response was unaffected by the addition of atropine (10(-6) M). Nerve stimulation during infusion of phentolamine (10(-5) M) with and without additional infusion of atropine resulted in a significant further increase in the release of CGRP-LI to 261+/-134% (n=5) and 240+/-80% (n=9), respectively. This response was abolished by infusion of hexamethonium (3x10(-5) M). Infusion of capsaicin (10(-5) M) caused a significant increase in the release of CGRP-LI to 485+/-82% of basal output (n=5). Our results suggest a dual origin of CGRP innervation of the porcine ileum (intrinsic and extrinsic). The intrinsic CGRP neurons receive excitatory input by parasympathetic, possibly vagal, preganglionic fibres, via release of acetylcholine acting on nicotinic receptors. The stimulatory effect of capsaicin suggests that CGRP is also released from extrinsic sensory neurons. 相似文献

Cantleyine, a monoterpene alkaloid isolated from the root bark of Strychnos trinervis, was submitted to a broad spectrum pharmacological screening, in which the principal effect observed was a nonspecific relaxation of isolated smooth muscles. Cantleyine relaxed (IC50 2.1 x 10(-4) M) the guinea-pig trachea, pre-contracted by carbachol and antagonized in a nonspecific manner; carbachol (IC50 2.1 x 10(-4) M) and histamine (IC50 1.4 x 10(-4) M) induced contractions in the guinea-pig ileum; and phenylephrine (IC50 3.8 x 10(-4) M) responses in the rat aorta. Cantleyine antagonized (pD'2, 3.82) cumulative concentration response curves to histamine in the ileum in a noncompetitive, reversible (slope, 4.84) and concentration dependent manner. The tonic contractions induced by histamine and KCl were also inhibited in a concentration-dependent and reversible manner (IC50 7.2 x 10(-5) and 1.8 x 10(-4) M, respectively), suggesting that cantleyine should be acting on voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels. This hypothesis was confirmed by the observation that cantleyine inhibited (pD'2, 3.35), in a concentration dependent manner, the CaCl2 induced contraction in depolarizing medium. These results suggest that cantleyine produces nonspecific spasmolytic effects in smooth muscle and that in guinea-pig ileum this effect is, in part, due to the inhibition of Ca+2 influx through voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels. 相似文献

An in vitro whole organ bath preparation was used to examine the effects of leucine enkephalin on the cat ileocecal sphincter (ICS) intraluminal pressure and myoelectric activity. The bath allowed separation of the bathing media surrounding the ICS and the ileum. Leucine enkephalin (2 x 10(-7) M) when added to the ileal bathing medium caused a delayed increase in ICS spike activity and pressure which was blocked by tetrodotoxin (10(-5)M). In contrast, leucine enkephalin (2 x 10(-7)M) added directly to the ICS bathing medium caused an immediate spike-associated contractile response which was tetrodotoxin-resistant. Thus both an indirect and direct opiate action at the ICS was demonstrated. 相似文献

Solanum asterophorum Mart. (Solanaceae) is a shrub popularly known as "jurubeba-defogo" in the northeast of Brazil. In the present work, the methanol extract (SA-MeOH, 3750 microg/mL) and isojuripidine (10(-7) - 3 x 10(-4) M), a steroidal alkaloid obtained from S. asterophorum Mart. leaves, inhibited phasic contractions induced by both 1 microM histamine [IC50 = (225.8 +/- 47.4), g/mL and (3.5 +/- 0.8) x 10(-5) M] or 1 microm acetylcholine [IC50 = (112.5 +/- 20.6) microg/mL and (2.3 +/- 0.4) x 10(-5) M] in guinea-pig ileum, respectively. The extract and isojuripidine also relaxed the ileum (SA-MeOH, 1-750 microg/mL, and isojuripidine, 10(-9) - 3 x 10(-4) M) pre-contracted with 1 M histamine [EC50 = (101.1 +/- 17.4) microg/mL and (1.2 +/- 0.3) x 10(-6) M] or 1 microM acetylcholine [EC50 = (136.8 +/- 21.1) microg/mL and (1.9 +/- 0.4) x 10(-6) M] or 40 mm KCl [EC50 = (149.4 +/- 19.5) microg/mL and (1.8 +/- 0.7) x 10(-6) M], respectively, in an equipotent and concentration-dependent manner. This effect is probably due to inhibition of calcium influx through voltage-operated calcium (Ca(v)) channels. To confirm this hypothesis, we evaluated their effect on cumulative CaCl2 curves in depolarizing medium nominally without Ca2+. SA-MeOH (27, 243, 500, and 750 microg/mL) and isojuripidine (3 x 10(-8), 10(-6), 3 x 10(-5), and 3 x 10(-4) M) inhibited the contractions induced by CaCl2, in a concentration-dependent manner. The concentration-response curves to CaCl2, in the presence of SA-MeOH and isojuripidine, were shifted downward in relation to a control curve in a non-parallel manner resulting in reduction of the maximum effect [E(max) = (71.2 +/- 9.2); (57.4 +/- 9.2); (43.8 +/- 3.4); (41.5 +/- 2.4) and (90.6 +/- 4.8); (74.7 +/- 8.7); (66.4 +/- 3.9); (31.3 +/- 4.1)%, respectively]. SA-MeOH and isojuripidine present spasmolytic action in guinea-pig ileum due to a partially blockade of calcium influx through Ca(v) channels. 相似文献

We studied the role of enteric opioid neurons in the spontaneous motility of the longitudinal muscle in the isolated puppy ileum. Regular fluctuations in tone that rose above and returned to the basal level occurred at an interval of 4.7 +/- 0.3 min. Naloxone (10(-8) and 10(-7) M) reduced the spontaneous tonic contraction by 42.6 +/- 11.6% (p less than 0.02) and 77.0 +/- 3.6% (p less than 0.001), respectively. Tetrodotoxin (3.1 X 10(-7) M) and atropine (10(-7) M) terminated the fluctuations. Met- and Leu-enkephalins (10(-9)-10(-8) M) caused tonic contraction which was abolished by tetrodotoxin and atropine. The contractile response produced by transmural electrical stimulation was reduced by naloxone (10(-7) M). This response was also abolished by atropine and tetrodotoxin. These results suggest that enteric opioid neurons are spontaneously active and might operate, at least in part, to raise the basal tone of the longitudinal muscle in the puppy ileum through a cholinergic excitatory mechanism. 相似文献

We examined the effect of the voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channel antagonists, diltiazem and nifedipine, on basal and stimulated growth hormone (GH) release from purified somatotrophs. Our aim was to ascertain whether an influx of Ca2+ from the extracellular to the intracellular compartment is essential for augmented release. Basal release was decreased in a concentration-dependent manner by both diltiazem and nifedipine, while cAMP accumulation was unaffected. The release of GH induced by 29 mM K+ was blocked by diltiazem and nifedipine, at 10(-7) and 10(-8) M, respectively. Again cAMP was unaffected. The release of GH induced by growth hormone-releasing factor was significantly reduced by 10(-4) M diltiazem and completely blocked by nifedipine at a concentration of 10(-6) M or greater. Where the antagonists were effective, the growth hormone-releasing factor induced increase in cAMP accumulation was augmented. We conclude that an influx of Ca2+ from the extracellular compartment is essential for stimulated GH release. 相似文献

The contractile activity of and binding sites for endothelin-1 (ET-1) were investigated in isolated guinea-pig ileal longitudinal smooth muscle (GPILM). ET-1 produced concentration-dependent contractions of GPILM that either slowly subsided in the continued presence of ET-1 or rapidly subsided following washing of the tissue. The ED50 value for ET-1 contractions was 4.2 +/- 1.3 x 10(-9) M. The removal of extracellular calcium or pretreatment with nifedipine produced a complete inhibition of the contractions to ET-1. The IC50 value of nifedipine for inhibition of ET-1 mediated contractions was 3.0 +/- 0.8 x 10(-8) M. ET-1 produced a marked prolonged homologous desensitization of its contractile response but did not affect the responses mediated by carbachol, histamine, serotonin, substance P, and PLA2. High-affinity binding sites for 125I-labelled ET-1 were identified on microsomal membranes prepared from GPILM with Kd and Bmax values obtained by Scatchard analysis of 3.5 +/- 0.6 x 10(-10) M and 2138 +/- 159 fmol/mg protein, respectively. The binding of 125I-labelled ET-1 to GPILM microsomes was characterized by a rapid association (kob value of 0.077 min-1 at a radioligand concentration of 0.45 nM and an extremely slow dissociation (k1 value of 0.011 min-1; t1/2 value of 793 min). The binding was unaffected by the calcium channel antagonists nifedipine, verapamil, and diltiazem (10(-6) M); the receptor antagonists phenoxybenzamine, atropine, and naloxone (10(-6) M) and propranolol; and the peripheral benzodiazepine receptor antagonists Ro 5-4864 and PK 11195 and psychotomimetic drug phencyclidine (10(-5) M).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The actions of peptide YY (PYY) were studied in longitudinal organ-bath preparations of the guinea pig intestine. PYY induced concentration-dependent (10(-9)-5 x 10(-8) M) relaxations of tissue from the duodenum, jejunum, ileum, and colon. These responses were unaffected by adrenergic blockade and atropine treatment but could be prevented by tetrodotoxin. The pharmacology of PYY actions in segments of the small and large intestine indicated the involvement of intrinsic nonadrenergic, noncholinergic inhibitory neurones in the relaxation response to this peptide. All tissues could be made tachyphylactic to PYY without affecting their ability to respond to the direct acting muscle relaxants ATP or papaverine. Moreover, nicotinic ganglion stimulated relaxations and cholinergic nerve-mediated contractions were also unaffected. These results show applied PYY to have potent neurogenic actions in the guinea pig intestine with some similarities to PYY actions in the rat intestine. 相似文献

The effects of prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF 2alpha) on propulsive activity in segments of isolated colon and on isolated strips of guinea-pig colon were investigated. Using experimental conditions under which spontaneous propulsive activity was negligible, PGF2alpha (5X10(-8)X1X10(-6)M), added to the bathing medium increased propulsive activity in a concentration dependent manner. This increase of propulsive activity was abolished in the presence of atropine or tetrodotoxin (1X10(-7)g/ml). The contractions produced by PGF2alpha (5X10(-7) -1X10(-5)M) in isolated longitudinal and circular smooth muscle strips of guinea-pig colon were unaffected in the presence of atropine or tetrodotoxin (1X10(-7) g/ml). From these results it is concluded that under the conditions employed in this study propulsive activity stimulated by PGF2alpha may depend on the contractions of both muscle layers and stimulation of the peristalic reflex. 相似文献

A group of methyl 2-methyl-7,7-dihalo-5-(substituted-phenyl)-2-azabicyclo[4.1.0]hept-3-ene-4-carboxylates were prepared by reaction of dihalocarbenes (:CX2, X = Br, Cl) with methyl 1-methyl-4-(substituted-phenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylates. In vitro calcium channel antagonist activities were determined using a guinea pig ileum longitudinal smooth muscle assay. The title compounds exhibited weaker CC antagonist activity (10(-5)-10(-6)M range) than the reference drug nifedipine (1.4 x 10(-8)M). Structure-activity relationship studies showed that the position of a nitro substituent on the C-5 phenyl ring where the relative potency order was ortho > meta > para, and the size and/or electronegativity of the C-7 geminal-dihalo substituents (Br > Cl), were determinants of calcium channel antagonist activity. This class of compounds did not exhibit any inotropic effect on guinea pig left atria. A dihalocyclopropyl moiety is a potential bioisostere for the 2-methyl-3-methoxycarbonylvinyl moiety present in the calcium channel antagonist nifedipine. 相似文献

This work provides evidence that nicotine (1 x 10(-5) M) can cause changes in the intracellular calcium concentration of Trypanosoma cruzi epimastigotes, which can be blocked by alpha-bungarotoxin but not by atropine. Moreover, parasite membranes also bind such nicotinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist as well as agonists such as carbamylcholine (IC(50): 7.6 x 10(-7) M) and nicotine (IC(50): 1 x 10(-7) M). Results suggest that there is a molecular species in the surface of the parasite able to bind nicotinic ligands; therefore, nicotine interaction could lead to the activation of the mechanisms involved in intracellular calcium concentration increase in the parasite. 相似文献
