The basic pharmacological mechanisms involved in mediating nausea and vomiting are still poorly understood. Several classes of drugs have been identified that alleviate the symptoms of nausea and vomiting, either prophylactically or acutely. None of these is completely effective in all cases. They include antihistamines, dopamine antagonists, steroids, cannabinoids, benzodiazepines, serotonin antagonists, and anticholinergics. This paper examines the evidence that links each of these classes of drugs with the distribution of specific neurotransmitter receptor sites on which they may be acting. Studies on the central nervous system distribution of binding sites for one of these classes of drugs, the anticholinergics, are described. Binding sites for the muscarinic cholinergic radioligand [3H]quinuclidinylbenzilate occur in different concentrations throughout the dorsal vagal complex of the rabbit medulla oblongata. The distribution of such sites in this nonvomiting experimental animal is markedly different from that in the cat, an animal that has been used for many physiological and pharmacological studies of emesis. A previous study has suggested that muscarinic binding sites may occur presynaptically on vagal afferent terminals that synapse in the dorsal vagal complex of the cat; this appears not to be the case in the rabbit. Possible implications of these findings for the identification of the site of action of anticholinergic, antiemetic drugs are discussed. 相似文献

Gastric peristaltic contractions are driven by electrical slow waves modulated by neural and humoral inputs. Excitatory neural input comes primarily from cholinergic motor neurons, but ACh causes depolarization and chronotropic effects that might disrupt the normal proximal-to-distal spread of gastric slow waves. We used intracellular electrical recording techniques to study cholinergic responses in stomach tissues from wild-type and W/W(V) mice. Electrical field stimulation (5 Hz) enhanced slow-wave frequency. These effects were abolished by atropine and the muscarinic M(3)-receptor antagonist 4-diphenylacetoxy-N-methylpiperidine methiodide. ACh released from nerves did not depolarize antral muscles. At higher rates of stimulation (10 Hz), chronotropic effects were mediated by ACh and a noncholinergic transmitter and blocked by muscarinic antagonists and neurokinin (NK(1) and NK(2))-receptor antagonists. Neostigmine enhanced slow-wave frequency, suggesting that the frequency of antral pacemakers is kept low by efficient metabolism of ACh. Neostigmine had no effect on slow-wave frequency in muscles of W/W(v) mice, which lack intramuscular interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC-IM). These muscles also showed no significant chronotropic response to 5-Hz electrical field stimulation or the cholinergic agonist carbachol. The data suggest that the chronotropic effects of cholinergic nerve stimulation occur via ICC-IM in the murine stomach. The capacity of gastric muscles to metabolize ACh released from enteric motor neurons contributes to the maintenance of the proximal-to-distal slow-wave frequency gradient in the murine stomach. ICC-IM play a critical role in neural regulation of gastric motility, and ICC-IM become the dominant pacemaker cells during sustained cholinergic drive. 相似文献

Both radiotherapy and chemotherapy for cancer are capable of causing nausea and vomiting. With both treatment modalities, the nausea and vomiting is thought to be a second-order process rather than being due to direct stimulation of neuromechanisms that control vomiting. Both a peripheral (gastrointestinal tract) and central (chemoreceptor trigger zone) effect may be operating with both radiotherapy- and chemotherapy-induced vomiting. With radiotherapy, gastrointestinal toxicity is affected by the type of radiation, radiation dose and field size, fractionation schedule, individual patient factors, and the part of the patient that is radiated. Many different factors also influence the frequency and severity of nausea and vomiting following chemotherapy. With both radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the frequency and severity of nausea and vomiting is probably mediated by a reduction in breakdown of various neurotransmitters. It is presumed that as the levels of neurotransmitters increase, nausea and vomiting develop. Antagonists of these neurotransmitters may afford some antiemetic protection. Nausea and vomiting may be so severe in patients with cancer that they may refuse potentially curative therapy because of it. Anticipatory nausea and vomiting may develop in patients who have become quite sick after receiving treatment. Exposure to stimuli associated with the emetogenic agent is then sufficient to trigger nausea and vomiting. Standard antiemetics do not help anticipatory nausea and vomiting, although behavioural training may. A variety of different drugs have proven useful as antiemetics, including dopamine antagonists such as phenothiazines, metoclopramide, corticosteroids (dexamethasone and methylprednisolone), cannabinoids, and benzodiazapines. Antihistamines and anticholinergics are of value in some situations. New serotonin antagonists appear to be very promising and are currently undergoing clinical studies. Multiagent antiemetic regimens appear to be more effective than single agent regimens in some situations. 相似文献

Cholinergic neurons and the cardiovascular response produced by central injection of substance P in the normotensive rat 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The role of cholinergic neurons in central cardiovascular regulation is not well understood, however, activation of brain cholinergic neurons in several species evokes a hypertensive response. As with central cholinergic stimulation, intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) injection of substance P (sP) elicits a pressor response in unanesthetized rats. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the cardiovascular effects following i.c.v. injection of this neuropeptide are mediated by central cholinergic neurons. Therefore, the cardiovascular response to sP was examined in control rats, and in animals pretreated centrally with classical pre- and post-synaptic cholinergic antagonists. Drugs were administered directly into the lateral ventricle while rats were freely-moving in their home cages. I.c.v. injection of sP produced a dose - dependent increase in arterial pressure and heart rate. The hypertensive response was significantly reduced by pretreatment with hemicholinium-3. This dose (20 ug) of hemicholinium-3 is capable of producing a maximal depletion of brain acetylcholine levels. The increase in heart rate to substance P was not as sensitive to hemicholinium-3 pretreatment as was blood pressure. Central pretreatment with the nicotinic receptor antagonist, hexamethonium was more effective than the muscarinic antagonist, atropine in blocking the pressor response to sP. Hexamethonium did not significantly alter the tachycardic response to the peptide, but atropine produced a small, but significant reduction in the response. Therefore, the pressor response to central injection of sP may be mediated to a large extent through cholinergic pathways involving nicotinic receptors. 相似文献

In functional pharmacological assays, talsaclidine has been described as a functionally preferential M1 agonist with full intrinsic activity, and less pronounced effects at M2- and M3 receptors. In accordance with this, cholinomimetic central activation measured in rabbits by EEG recordings occurred at a 10 fold lower dose than that inducing predominantly M3-mediated side effects. This pharmacological profile is also reflected in the clinical situation: Both in healthy volunteers and in Alzheimer patients--unlike after unspecific receptor stimulation through cholinesterase inhibitors--the mainly M3-mediated gastrointestinal effects (like nausea and vomiting) were not dose-limiting. Rather, sweating and hypersalivation, mediated through muscarinic receptors, occurred dose-dependently and were finally dose-limiting. In contrast to talsaclidine, sabcomeline had a less pronounced functional M1 selectivity in pharmacological assays. This was also shown in anaesthetized guinea pigs where sabcomeline alone induced bronchoconstriction, and in the rabbit EEG where central activation and cholinergic side effects occurred in the same dose range. Neither drug, however, showed convincing improvement of cognitive functions in patients with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease. This asks for a reassessment of the muscarinic hypothesis for the treatment of this disease. 相似文献

New antiemetic drugs 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
G J Sanger 《Canadian journal of physiology and pharmacology》1990,68(2):314-324
Three major areas of medicine are identified in which there is a need for new antiemetic drugs. These are the nausea and vomiting arising from gastrointestinal motility disturbances (functional dyspepsia, diabetic neuropathy, classical migraine), the sickness evoked by abnormal motion, and the severe emesis experienced by cancer patients as a result of certain cytotoxic therapies. For gastrointestinal-related nausea, selective stimulants of gut motility are suggested to form the basis for a new type of antiemetic therapy. In motion sickness, there has been progress in the understanding of the illness, but little advance in the development of new drugs that selectively prevent this type of sickness. In cancer chemo- and radio-therapy, the discovery that selective 5-HT3 (5-HT, 5-hydroxytryptamine) receptor antagonists can prevent severe cytotoxic-evoked emesis now promises to radically change the type of antiemetic therapy given to these patients. This type of antiemetic compound and the pharmacology of the new 5-HT3 receptor antagonists are, therefore, discussed in detail. 相似文献

Effects of muscarinic receptor agonists and antagonists on response of non-extensor rats to maximal electroshock 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Rats which do not respond consistently to maximal electroshock by exhibiting the classical hindlimb extensor response, are designated as 'flexors', and can serve as a useful experimental model for investigating seizure mechanisms. 20-25% Charles Foster rats exhibit the flexor status and were used in this study. The flexor rats were converted to extensors by acetylcholine (icv), physostigmine (ip) and the selective muscarinic M1 receptor agonists, arecholine (ip) and McN-A-343 (icv). This conversion of flexors to extensors was significantly attenuated by M1 receptor antagonists scopolamine (ip) and pirenzepine (icv). The M2 receptor agonist, carbachol (icv), had no effect in lower doses but induced conversion of flexor rats to the extensor status only in very high doses which may be due to loss of receptor specificity on dose increment. The M2 receptor antagonists, gallamine (icv) and AF-DX 116 (ip), also induced significant conversion of flexors to extensors, which was dependent upon the availability of neuronal acetylcholine since the effects were attenuated following pretreatment with hemicholinium, an inhibitor of acetylcholine synthesis. The results suggest that the central cholinergic system has a facilitatory pro-convulsant effect, mediated through the muscarinic M1 receptors, an action modulated by the M2 receptors. 相似文献

The effect of cholinergic agonists and antagonists on the central pattern generator of the pharyngeal muscles has been studied in third instar larvae of Drosophila. The pharyngeal muscles are a group of rhythmically active fibers involved in feeding. Bath application of the cholinergic agonists carbachol, muscarine, pilocarpine, and acetylcholine (ACh) to a semiintact preparation including the pharyngeal muscles and the central nervous system (CNS), initiated long-lasting endogenous-like bursting activity in the muscles. The muscarinic antagonists, atropine and scopolamine, blocked these responses as well as endogenous activity. Perfusion with nicotine elicited a short, tonic response that was marginally blocked by mecamylamine but not by curare, alpha-bungarotoxin, hexamethonium, or the muscarinic antagonists. This is the first time that a response to cholinergic drugs has been examined in Drosophila. The pharyngeal muscle preparation may prove to be a valuable system for studying mutations of cholinergic metabolism, receptors, and second messengers. 相似文献

Digestive tract motor correlates of vomiting and nausea 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
I M Lang 《Canadian journal of physiology and pharmacology》1990,68(2):242-253
The digestive tract from the upper esophageal sphincter to the ileum participates in the vomiting process, but the role of the digestive tract in nausea is unclear. In preparation for vomiting, the proximal stomach relaxes and the small intestine is evacuated orad in a single mass movement by a retrograde giant contraction and caudad in a stripping fashion by a series of phasic contractions. Orad evacuation of the small intestine may not only remove offending substances but may also dilute. or buffer gastric contents with intestinal and pancreaticobiliary secretions. In association with retching and vomiting, the striated muscle of the esophagus contracts longitudinally, pulling the relaxed proximal stomach into the thoracic cavity forming a funnel from stomach to esophagus. However, gastric evacuation does not occur until the hiatal fibers of the diaphragm relax during vomitus expulsion. Nausea is a subjective feeling in humans that is difficult to identify in animals. Various changes in digestive tract activity have been associated with nausea, but no evidence suggests that these events cause nausea. The prodromal signs of vomiting (e.g., increased heart rate and respiration) that occur concomitantly with the gastrointestinal motor correlates of vomiting have been considered autonomic indices of nausea in animals, but this has not been proven. Regardless, the gastrointestinal motor correlates of vomiting do not cause the prodromata. The emetic central pattern generator may be organized in parallel with respect to its individual autonomic correlates, but as groups of responses, the autonomic and somatomotor correlates may be organized in series. 相似文献

Indian red scorpion (Mesobuthus tamulus; MBT) envenomation produces various cardio-respiratory abnormalities including cardiac dysrhythmias. The underlying cell signaling pathways for the cardiac dysrhythmias produced by MBT venom are not known. The present study was therefore conducted to delineate the second messenger signaling pathways involved in MBT venom-induced atrial rhythm changes. The effects of venom and various antagonists were examined on spontaneously beating rat right atrial preparations in vitro. The MBT-venom produced an increase (35%), a decrease (45%) and again an increase (50%) in rate at 0.03, 0.3 and 3.0 microg/ml of venom, respectively. On the other hand, force of contraction exhibited a concentration-dependent rise (up to 40%) at all concentrations of venom. Pretreatment with atropine (0.3 microM) blocked the decrease in atrial rate at 0.3 microg/ml concentration of venom while no such blockade was seen in force of contraction. Submaximal concentration of ACh (0.1 nM) decreased the atrial rate by 25%. In the presence of MBT venom (0.3 microg/ml), ACh-induced fall in atrial rate was enhanced. The venom-induced fall in atrial rate and augmentation of ACh response were blocked by pertussis toxin (PTx; a Gi-inhibitor) or methylene blue (a G-cyclase inhibitor). The results indicate that the decrease in atrial rate produced by venom is mediated muscarinic by receptors via Gi-guanylyl cyclase mediated cell signaling pathways. 相似文献

The presence of different receptor populations within a given brain area can be effectively evaluated via the local injections of defined receptor agonists and antagonists. Using this approach, it has become evident that the nucleus basalis - cortical cholinergic pathway possesses an inhibitory GABAergic input to the nucleus basalis from the nucleus accumbens as well as a positive glutamatergic feedback from the cortex. The septal-hippocampal cholinergic pathway also possesses an inhibitory GABAergic regulation which consists of a large GABAergic interneuron population in the septum. A glutamatergic feedback from the hippocampus is also present. These regulatory inputs to cholinergic cells are not tonically active but appear to function as phasic modulators of cholinergic transmission in both pathways. 相似文献

Cholecystokinin (CCK) and the structurally related peptide, gastrin, have numerous effects on tissues in the central nervous system and gastrointestinal tract. Recent studies show these effect are mediated by a CCKA and CCKB receptor. Knowledge of the physiological role and role of CCKB receptors in pathologic processes has been particularly limited by the availability of selective, potent receptor antagonists. Recently, new members of five different classes of non-peptide CCKB receptor antagonists are reported and are reviewed briefly. these include compounds isolated from Streptomyces (tetronothiodin, virginiamycin analogues), ureido-acetamide analogues (RP 69758, RP 72540, RP 73870), newer benzodiazepine analogues (L-368,935, L-740,093, YM022), pyrazolidimine analogues (LY 262,691) and glutamic acid analogues (CR2194). Many of these compounds have greater than 1000-fold selectivity for the CCKB over the CCKA receptor and some have greater than 10,000-fold selectivity. The pharmacology and effects of CCKB receptor antagonists on gastric acid secretion is briefly reviewed. Furthermore, the possible clinical usefulness of CCKB receptor antagonists in treating disorders of gastric acid secretion, in inhibiting the trophic effects of gastrin and in other clinical conditions is briefly discussed. 相似文献

The last two decades have provided a large weight of preclinical data implicating the neurokinin-1 receptor (NK1) and its cognate ligand substance P (SP) in a broad range of both central and peripheral disease conditions. However, to date, only the NK1 receptor antagonist aprepitant has been approved as a therapeutic and this is to prevent chemotherapy-induced nausea & vomiting (CINV). The belief remained that the full therapeutic potential of NK1 receptor antagonists had yet to be realized; therefore clinical evidence that NK1 receptor antagonists may be effective in major depression disorder, resulted in a significant further investment in discovering novel CNS penetrant druggable NK1 receptor antagonists to address this condition. At GlaxoSmithKline after the discovery of casopitant, that went on to demonstrate efficacy as a novel antidepressant in the clinic, additional novel analogues of this NK1 receptor antagonist were designed to further enhance its drug developability characteristics. Herein, we therefore describe the discovery process and the vivo pharmacological and pharmacokinetic profile of the new NK1 receptor antagonist 3a (also called orvepitant), selected as clinical candidate and further progressed into clinical studies for major depressive disorder. Moreover, molecular modeling studies enabled us to improve the pharmacophore model of the NK1 receptor antagonists with the identification of a region able to accommodate a variety of heterocycle moieties. 相似文献

Although acupuncture has a significant clinical benefit, the mechanism of acupuncture remains unclear. Vasopressin, a posterior pituitary hormone, is involved in nausea and vomiting in humans and dogs. To investigate the antiemetic effects of acupuncture on vasopressin-induced emesis, gastroduodenal motor activity and the frequency of retching and vomiting were simultaneously recorded in conscious dogs. In seven dogs, four force transducers were implanted on the serosal surfaces of the gastric body, antrum, pylorus, and duodenum. Gastroduodenal motility was continuously monitored throughout the experiment. Vasopressin was intravenously infused at a dose of 0.1 U x kg(-1) x min(-1) for 20 min. Electroacupuncture (EA, 1-30 Hz) at pericardium-6 (PC6), bladder-21 (BL21), or stomach-36 (ST36) was performed before, during, and after the vasopressin infusion. To investigate whether the opioid pathway is involved in EA-induced antiemetic effects, naloxone (a central and peripheral opioid receptor antagonist) or naloxone methiodide (a peripheral opioid receptor antagonist) was administered before, during, and after EA and vasopressin infusion. Intravenous infusion of vasopressin induced retching and vomiting in all dogs tested. Retrograde peristaltic contractions occurred before the onset of retching and vomiting. EA (10 Hz) at PC6 significantly reduced the number of episodes of retching and vomiting. EA at PC6 also suppressed retrograde peristaltic contractions. In contrast, EA at BL21 or ST36 had no antiemetic effects. The antiemetic effect of EA was abolished by pretreatment with naloxone but not naloxone methiodide. It is suggested that the antiemetic effect of acupuncture is mediated via the central opioid pathway. 相似文献

Approximately one half of cancer patients experience nausea or vomiting during chemotherapy containing high-dose cisplatin, despite the use of a corticosteroid and 5-hydroxytryptamine(3) (5-HT(3)) receptor antagonists. The addition of aprepitant, a neurokinin 1 receptor antagonist, improves control of emesis by a further 15-20%, and improves late phase symptoms (>24 h after chemotherapy). The cornerstone of standard first line lung cancer chemotherapy is high-dose cisplatin. Our experience with aprepitant in the chemotherapy of 10 lung cancer patients is described, who reported more than one episode of vomiting caused by chemotherapy despite the use of ondansetron previously. Aprepitant prevented acute and late phase oncoming vomiting in all 10 patients and acute and late phase nausea in 9 of the 10 patients. According to our experience on a limited number of patients, aprepitant may be of clinical benefit in the supportive treatment of lung cancer, in achieving better quality of life during chemotherapeutic cycles in these patients. 相似文献

Antisecretory effects of galanin and its putative antagonists M15, M35 and C7 in the rat stomach. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The neuropeptide galanin has been reported to have a wide range of biological actions both in the central nervous system and in the gastrointestinal tract. Recent works led to the discovery of selective galanin receptor antagonists including M15 (galanin(1-12)-Pro-substanceP(5-11)-amide), M35 (galanin(1-12)-Pro-bradykinin(2-9)-amide) and C7 (galanin(1-12)-Pro-spantide-amide). These antagonists were shown to competitively inhibit actions of galanin in the central nervous system. The present study was designed to investigate the effect of galanin, M15, M35 and C7 on gastric acid secretion and gastric emptying. Pentagastrin-stimulated gastric acid secretion was inhibited by galanin (0.1-9 nmol x kg(-1) x h(-1), i.v.) in a dose-dependent manner (ID50 = 1.8 +/- 0.3 nmol x kg(-1) x h(-1)). When 9 nmol x kg(-1) x h(-1) galanin infusion was given, inhibition became almost complete. M15, M35 and C7 (1-9 nmol x kg(-1) x h(-1)) did not modify responses of the stomach to galanin, but acted as agonists of galanin on acid secretion. Neither galanin nor its putative antagonists affected the emptying of non-caloric liquids from the stomach. In conclusion, galanin may play an antisecretory role in the regulation of gastric acid secretion but not in the control of gastric emptying of liquids in rats. Its antisecretory action on the stomach is mediated by galanin receptors that are distinct from those in the central nervous system. 相似文献

The serotonin, norepinephrine, dopamine, and endocannabinoid systems, as well as a host of other systems, mediate hunger and satiety signals. Weight loss agents that modulate appetite through pure central nervous system pathways (e.g., APD356, a selective serotonin receptor agonist) and peripheral signals to central nervous system pathways (e.g., cholecystokinin receptor agonists and ghrelin receptor antagonists) are in preclinical or early phase studies. Both devices and pharmacological compounds that facilitate weight loss and/or target multiple components of metabolic risk also are in development. One of the medications that has completed extensive phase III clinical trials and may become available in the foreseeable future is rimonabant, a selective cannabinoid 1-receptor antagonist. Drugs that improve adipose tissue function or fatty acid metabolism (e.g., AOD9604) also are in clinical trials. Some currently available medications may reduce metabolic complications without treating obesity per se (e.g., acipimox, pioglitazone). Surgically implanted gastric pacemaker systems that modulate vagus nerve activity and delay gastric emptying are under study. 相似文献

在过去的几十年里,随着各种手术技术的不断提高和完善,已使外科手术的死亡率大幅降低,这使医生的注意力逐渐转向手术后的并发症和患者的满意程度上,如手术后恶心呕吐。恶心呕吐是术后严重的并发症之一,尽管术后恶心呕吐(Postoperativenausea and vomiting,PONV)是非致命性的并发症,但是PONV可导致严重的后果,并且增加了医疗费用,极大的影响了患者的满意程度。PONV高发率一直困扰着临床医生和患者。所以,探讨其发生及其风险因素是十分必要的。但是,术后恶心呕吐的病理生理学机制还不是十分清楚,本文总结了目前关于术后恶心呕吐发生机制的一些观点以及术后恶心呕吐的风险因素。虽然以往大量的文献报道了如何预防和治疗术后恶心呕吐,但迄今为止,5-HT3受体拮抗剂仍然是临床上使用的最主要的止吐药。目前,一些新药物,如NK-1受体拮抗剂、更加长效的5-HT3受体拮抗剂以及对于PONV高风险的病人实行的多模式管理和新技术的应用,正变得越来越突出。本文综述了现今手术后恶心呕吐的防治方法的最新进展。 相似文献

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is present in both extrinsic sympathetic adrenergic nerve terminals and intrinsic nerves of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Based on this localization a number of functions have been attributed to GI NPY including regulation of blood flow, intestinal fluid and electrolyte transport, and motility. There is nothing currently known, however, about the regulation of its secretion from GI nerves. The effect of cholinergic agonists and antagonists on secretion of NPY immunoreactivity (NPY-IR) from the isolated perfused rat stomach was investigated in the present study. Perfusate samples were extracted and concentrated on SepPak cartridges. Basal levels of NPY-IR varied between 98 and 147 fmol/min. Release was stimulated by high potassium concentrations (50 mM) and acetylcholine (ACh; 1 microM). ACh-induced secretion was unaffected by atropine, but inhibited by hexamethonium. Further evidence for a nicotinic component in the regulation of NPY-IR secretion was obtained by the finding of hexamethonium-induced reduction in basal secretion and stimulation of secretion by 1,1-dimethyl-4-phenyl-piperazinium (DMPP). In conclusion, cholinergic agonists and antagonists can modulate gastric NPY-IR secretion, and the cholinergic stimulatory effects are probably mediated via nicotinic receptor stimulation at the level of the intrinsic ganglia. 相似文献
