The inhibitory effect of 6-keto-prostaglandin E1 (pGE1) on the growth and survival of ascitic hepatoma (AH-130) cells in vivo was compared with currently used chemotherapeutic agents. Three days after receiving an intraperitoneal injection of 3 X 10(6) AH-130 tumor cells, Donrhyu rats were injected intravenously or intraperitoneally with one of the following: Thromboxane B2 (TXB2) (0.5 mg/kg), 6-keto-pGE1 (0.5 mg/kg), Mitomycin C (MMC) (1.5 mg/kg), or MMC + 6-keto-pGE1 (1.5 mg/kg + 0.5 mg/kg). The mean survival time, median survival time, and increase of life survival percent (ILS%) during a 60 day period revealed that both 6-keto-pGE1 and 6-keto-pGE1 + MMC significantly inhibited AH-130 tumor cell growth, while TXB2 promoted tumor cell growth. We conclude that 6-keto-pGE1 like anti-tumor agents such as MMC, Diketocoriolin B, Carbazilquinon, Endoxan, and 5-Fluorouracil, can significantly inhibit growth of AH-130 tumor cells in vivo, particularly when administered in combination with the anti-tumor agent MMC. 相似文献

Injection of ethmozine to rats (50 mg/kg subcutaneously) and to dogs (0,5 mg/kg intravenously) produced a substantial rise in diuresis, natriuresis and kaliuresis at the expense of the increased glomerular filtration rate and renal circulation. Injection of ethmozine (0.25-1.0 mg/min for 20 min) to the renal artery of dogs had no effect on the ipsilateral side. It is assumed that alterations in renal function induced by ethmozine injection are extrarenal in nature. 相似文献

1. Prostaglandins A1, B1, E1 and F1 alpha (2-120 micrograms/kg), arachidonic acid and dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid (0.1-2 mg/kg) were injected intravenously into Channa maculata and changes in arterial blood pressure were recorded. 2. Injection of PGF1 alpha had no significant effect on arterial blood pressure. Injection of PGA1 and PGE1 was followed by dose-dependent hypotension whereas injection of PGB1 elicited significant dose-dependent increase in arterial blood pressure. 3. Both dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid and arachidonic acid were also depressor agents but dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid was more potent. 4. A single bolus intravenous injection of indomethacin (5 mg/kg) or 4 daily intraperitoneal injections (4 x 10 mg/kg) significantly lowered arterial blood pressure. One hour after pre-treatment of indomethacin, the vascular effects of both prostaglandin precursors were abolished. 5. It appears that the vascular effects of prostaglandins in Channa maculata are qualitatively different from those reported for mammals. 相似文献

In experiments on (CBA X C57Bl)F1 mice irradiated with doses of 8-12 Gy a study was made of the effect of a mixture of polyI-polyC (2.5 mg/kg, 2 days before irradiation) and mexamine (30 mg/kg, 5 min before irradiation) on the survival rate of animals and the times of their death. It was shown that polyI-polyC potentiates the protective effect of mexamine not increasing its toxicity. The protective agents used in a combination decrease the "intestinal" death of irradiated animals while used separately fail to produce this effect. 相似文献

The comparative effects of propofol, thiopental, and diazepam, administered intravenously, on pentylenetetrazol seizure threshold in the rabbit. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The anticonvulsant effects of propofol, thiopental, and diazepam, administered intravenously, on pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) seizure threshold were studied and compared in the rabbit. The PTZ seizure threshold determined in various rabbit groups during the control phase of conducted experiments, was found to be in the range of 10.1 +/- 2.0 to 13.5 +/- 3.7 mg/kg. Intravenous administration of comparable doses of propofol, thiopental, and diazepam resulted in marked and significant increases in PTZ seizure threshold. At all administered doses (1.25-10.0 mg/kg), propofol was found to be more effective than thiopental in increasing the PTZ threshold dose. However, the anticonvulsant effects of diazepam were more marked than those of propofol, except at a dose of 10 mg/kg where both agents exhibited equipotent activities. These data demonstrate that propofol enjoys a considerable degree of anticonvulsant activity in the rabbit. This anticonvulsant action is greater than that of thiopental at doses ranging from 2.5 to 10 mg/kg and equipotent with diazepam at the 10 mg/kg dose. 相似文献

To date, data are not available concerning the effectiveness of chemotherapy in the treatment of Spirocerca lupi-associated esophageal sarcomas. In the present study, we compared the effectiveness of 4 chemotherapeutic agents against S. lupi-associated osteosarcoma, using a xenograft murine model created in our lab. Samples of xenografted osteosarcoma were inoculated subcutaneously into 5 groups (n = 10 each) of 6-wk-old male and female NOD/SCID mice. Tumor-bearing mice were divided into treatment and control groups. The treatment groups were injected with either pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (6 mg/kg, intravenously, n = 9), doxorubicin (6 mg/kg, intravenously, n = 8), carboplatin (60 mg/kg, intraperitoneally, repeated twice at 1-wk intervals for a total of 2 doses, n = 9), or cisplatin (6 mg/kg, intraperitoneally, n = 8). The control group was injected with buffered saline (n = 9). Tumor size was determined by caliper measurements. Compared with the control group, the pegylated liposomal doxorubicin- and doxorubicin-treated groups, but not the carboplatin or cisplatin groups, showed significant inhibition of tumor growth. Our results indicate that doxorubicin-based drugs are effective against S. lupi-associated sarcomas in a mouse xenograft model. Because it is less toxic than doxorubicin, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin is likely the drug of choice for treatment of S. lupi-associated sarcomas. We suggest that combination of doxorubicin or its pegylated form with surgical excision will improve the prognosis of dogs with this disease. 相似文献

In the present study we observed that lipopolysaccharide (LPS) administration provoked a characteristic reduction in body weight gain, food consumption, saccharin (but not water) consumption and nocturnal locomotor activity. It has been previously suggested that the ability of LPS to suppress the consumption of, and preference for, a palatable solution such as saccharin without altering water consumption, may represent an anhedonic response. The results of the present study demonstrate that chronic treatment with the tricyclic antidepressant (TCA) desipramine (7.5 mg/kg; i.p.) prevented LPS-induced anorexia, loss of body weight, the antidipsogenic effect and hypoactivity. In contrast, chronic treatment with the antidepressants paroxetine (7.5 mg/kg; i.p.) and venlafaxine (10 mg/kg; i.p.) failed to alter any of the LPS-induced behavioural responses. Furthermore, chronic treatment with desipramine (and to a lesser extent paroxetine) reduced the consumption of, and preference for, saccharin suggesting that these antidepressant treatments induce an "anhedonic" response in their own right. In conclusion, chronic desipramine treatment attenuated LPS-induced depressive-like behavioural symptoms in the rat. However, chronic treatment with paroxetine and venlafaxine did not significantly alter LPS-induced behavioural responses. The results of the present study support the hypothesis that TCA's may exert part of their anti-depressive efficacy through their effects on the immune system. However, this property does not appear to be shared by newer antidepressants which possess a better side effect profile than the TCA's. The suppressive effect of TCA's on proinflammatory cytokine secretion is discussed as a mechanism by which these agents alter LPS-induced behavioural responses. 相似文献

The effect of three--structurally different--groups of compounds was compared against gastric mucosal damages induced by ethanol or prostaglandin (PG) synthesis inhibitors, as well as against carrageenan-induced inflammation. All the compounds studied--SH-compounds (cysteamine, 2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid, D,L-penicillamine), SH-blocking N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) and morphine-exerted dose-dependent inhibition on carrageenan edema test and against ethanol-induced gastric damage. Mucosal lesions induced by PG synthesis inhibitors (indomethacin 20 mg/kg, naproxen 75 mg/kg, piroxicam 60 mg/kg) were inhibited by drugs studied when the compounds were given before the damaging agents. However, when the drugs were injected 1 h after the inhibitors of PG synthesis opposite actions were observed; SH-compounds exerted protective, while NEM (2 mg/kg p.o.) and morphine (5 mg/kg p.o.) aggravating action. The results suggest that: 1. SH-compounds might have therapeutic importance in the treatment of gastric damage induced by prostaglandin synthesis inhibitors. 2. Reconsideration of the use of the term "cytoprotection" is necessary, since "cytoprotective" agents may aggravate mucosal damage in other ulcer model. 相似文献

The effect of 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP)—the precursor of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT)—and of an inhibitor,N-(dl-seryl)-N-(2,3,4-trihydroxybenzyl)hydrazine (Ro4-4602), ofl-aromatic amino acid decarboxylase on the metabolism of glucose to amino acids in brain tissue was investigated. Labeled glucose (20 Ci, 0.24 mg in 0.2 ml 0.9% saline) was injected intravenously into fed rats pretreated with Ro4-4602 (50 mg/kg intraperitoneally) either alone or in combination with 5-HTP (30 mg/kg intravenously) or with the appropriate vehicle. After the injection of Ro4-4602 plus 5-HTP, the concentrations of 5-HT and 5-HTP in brain were increased, but the increase of 5-HTP that Ro4-4602 slightly inhibits the reaction of decarboxylation in the brain, although at the dose used the drug is usually considered to act only peripherally. After administration of Ro4-4602 alone or combined with 5-HTP, the concentration of glucose in plasma was not significantly increased. However, the concentration of glucose in brain was markedly increased with such treatments. The administration of Ro4-4602 alone or combined with 5-HTP reduced the flux of14C from labeled glucose to amino acids in brain. The concentrations of amino acids in brain were little changed by these treatments. 相似文献

Two functional performance parameters (heart rate and coronary flow rate) of three groups of six isolated beating hearts obtained from rats anesthetized by inhalation of diethyl ether in air, injection intraperitoneally of sodium pentobarbital (60mg/kg) or intravenously of alphaxalone/alphadolone (15mg/kg) were compared. Differences were small, but alphaxalone-alphadolone showed lowest stable mean coronary flow rate and diethyl ether the widest variation between animals. No significant difference in function was found between ether and pentobarbital, currently the two most widely used methods. But, pentobarbital showed higher stable functional performance and least variation between animals. We conclude that pentobarbital is the most useful of these three agents for obtaining hearts for perfusion as isolated beating organs, and that alphaxalone-alphadolone is clearly less suitable. 相似文献

In anaesthetized dogs renal function was investigated in four successive 20-min periods in four experimental series. (1) In the first series following the first period (serving as control) 2.5 micrograms/kg/min of dopamine (DA) dissolved in 0.5 ml/min of Ringer's solution was infused into the left renal artery (period 2), than during periods 3 and 4. It was found that first (period 2) and second (period 3) doses of DA induced a significant decrease of about 20-30% in renal vascular resistance, and an increase of about 15-25% in renal blood flow. At the same time, systemic arterial blood pressure fell by 10%. The other investigated parameters of the left kidney (Cinulin, CPAH, sodium, potassium and water excretion) did not differ from the respective parameters of the intact right kidney. (2) In the second experimental series following the first period (prior to period 2) 1.0 mg/kg of the DA antagonist EGYT 2509 was administered intravenously. Prior to the period 3 again 1.0 mg/kg of EGYT 2509 and prior to period 4 2.0 mg/kg of EGYT 2509 was given intravenously. During periods 2 through 4 2.5 micrograms/kg/min of DA was infused into the left renal artery. It could be ascertained that EGYT 2509 abolished the renal effects of DA while not inducing any decrease in arterial blood pressure. (3) In the third experimental series, following the control period, prior to periods 2,3 and 4, 1.0 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 2.0 mg/kg chlorpromazine respectively, was administered i.v. followed by the infusion of DA into the left renal artery. After the administration of chlorpromazine arterial blood pressure and renal vascular resistance fell concomitantly and DA failed to induce any further changes in these parameters. According to our experiments chlorpromazine abolishes the effect of DA on kidney function. (4) In the fourth series, prior to DA infusion the dogs were given 0.5 mg/kg (period 2) then again 0.5 mg/kg and finally 1.0 mg/kg of haloperidol intravenously. Haloperidol decreased arterial blood pressure as well as renal vascular resistance, thus renal blood flow did not change. Renal blood flow could then be increased by DA infused into the left renal artery. It seems that haloperidol could not abolish the vascular effects of DA in the kidney. Our experiments indicate that substance EGYT 2509 possesses the most marked dopaminergic antagonistic effect, chlorpromazine had also been effective, while haloperidol had proved to be practically ineffective. 相似文献

Rats were given 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA) intravenously in a dose of 15 mg/kg on the 21st day of pregnancy; its content in the liver, placenta, and the fetus was determined by the fluorescent-spectral method. The maximal concentration was reached in 10--15 min in the liver and placenta of the pregnant rats (45 and 6.3 microgram/kg, respectively) in comparison with a slower (in one hour) elevation in the fetal tissues (2.4 microgram/kg). It took about 5 hours for all the tissues to be cleared of the carcinogen. One hour after the administration DMBA was unevenly distributed in various fetal organs--the maximal content in the liver, and the minimal--in the "carcass" in comparison with the content in other organs (the kidneys, lungs, brain, intestine). The results obtained failed to correlate with the data on the predominant origination of the tumours in the kidneys and the nervous system of rats in transplacental DMBA action. 相似文献

Beta-endorphin (0.7 and 2.8 mg/kg) and morphine (0.15 and 0.60 mg/kg) were administered intravenously to rhesus monkeys responding on an operant schedule. Beta-endorphin injections resulted in dose-dependent effects which included marked, but relatively brief disruptions in behavioral responding, decreases in systolic blood pressure, and more protracted increases in heart rate. Morphine injections were followed by much longer duration decreases in response rates and systolic blood pressure, and an irregular but largely deceleratory heart rate response. On a molar basis, beta-endorphin was approximately twice as potent as morphine. It was concluded that intravenously administered beta-endorphin exerts behavioral and physiological effects in the unanesthetized primate. 相似文献

Piracetam modifies morphine and related drug-induced elevation of serum corticosterone concentration in rats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Piracetam (2-oxo-l-pyrrolidine acetamide, UCB 6215) or physiological saline solution was injected intravenously to female rats; after 60 min the animals were decapitated and blood was collected. Piracetam in doses of 100, 300 and 600 mg/kg resulted in a progressive suppression of serum corticosterone concentration (Cpd B) as compared to the controls. Morphine (5 and 10 mg/kg), nalorphine (5 and 10 mg/kg) and naloxone (0.5 mg/kg) induced a significant rise of Cpd B 30 min after subcutaneous injection, however, this could be prevented by 300 mg/kg piracetam given intraperitoneally 60 min prior to decapitation. Piracetam was ineffective in reducing the effects of high doses of morphine (20 mg/kg) and nalorphine (20 mg/kg). The drug had no effect on either ether stress or electric footshocks induced activation of the pituitary-adrenocortical system. In vitro the drug had no effect on pituitary ACTH release following exposure to crude hypothalamic extract. It is concluded that the effect of piracetam on the pituitary-adrenocortical axis is mediated through hypothalamic or extrahypothalamic brain structures and influences one of the effects of morphine and related drugs. 相似文献

A study was made of the effect of ethacizine, a new antiarrhythmic phenothiazint derivative, on the size of experimental myocardial infarction in rabbits 7 days after ligation of the coronary artery. Ethmozine was used as reference. Ethacizine diminished the extent of necrosis by 22.8% (P less than 0.05) when injected intravenously in divided doses beginning from the 30th minute of 2-hour ligation, the total dose being 1.5 mg/kg. The six-day cycle of ethacizine treatment instituted 24 h after coronary artery ligation (daily dose 1.2 mg/kg) provoked a more considerable reduction of the myocardial infarction size (by 44.9%). The effect of ethmozine was less pronounced though statistically significant. Ethacizine increased ATP content in both the ischemic and "intact" myocardium and minimized the impairment of membrane permeability in the occlusion zone 3 h after ligation when injected according to the first above-described scheme. It is assumed that these effects may contribute to the drug protective action on the ischemic myocardium. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of prophylactic agents allopurinol, verapamil, dexamethasone and trifluoperazine on ischemic intestinal damage. STUDY DESIGN: Sixty albino Wistar rats weighing 120-150 g were used. Group 1 animals underwent sham laparotomy without ischemia-reperfusion injury. Group 2 animals underwent laparotomy and occlusion of superior mesenteric arteries for 30 minutes followed by 20 minutes of reperfusion without pretreatment. The allopurinol group received 50 mg/kg/day allopurinol intraperitoneally 2 days before ischemia-reperfusion injury. The verapamil group was given 0.3 mg/kg verapamil intravenously 5 minutes before laparotomy. The dexamethasone group was given 1.5 mg/kg dexamethasone intraperitoneally before laparotomy. The trifluoperazine group was given 10 mg/kg trifluoperazine intraperitoneally 6 hours before laparotomy. RESULTS: In the allopurinol group, generally the mucosa and villar structure were protected. In the verapamil group, shedding of cells at the tip of the villi is apparent. In the dexamethasone group, desquamation of the villar apex was seen. In the trifluoperazine group, edema and necrosis were seen in the mucosa. In statistical analysis of the MDA level, data were obtained after a respective measurement in all groups. CONCLUSION: In this study histopathologic results with agents that are effective on preventing the neutrophyle functions are mostly achieved. 相似文献

BackgroundThere is a continued need to develop effective and safe treatments for visceral leishmaniasis (VL). Preclinical studies on pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of anti-infective agents, such as anti-bacterials and anti-fungals, have provided valuable information in the development and dosing of these agents. The aim of this study was to characterise the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of the anti-leishmanial drugs AmBisome and miltefosine in a preclinical disease model of VL.Methodology / Principal findingsBALB/c mice were infected with L. donovani (MHOM/ET/67/HU3) amastigotes. Groups of mice were treated with miltefosine (orally, multi-dose regimen) or AmBisome (intravenously, single dose regimen) or left untreated as control groups. At set time points groups of mice were killed and plasma, livers and spleens harvested. For pharmacodynamics the hepatic parasite burden was determined microscopically from tissue impression smears. For pharmacokinetics drug concentrations were measured in plasma and whole tissue homogenates by LC-MS. Unbound drug concentrations were determined by rapid equilibrium dialysis. Doses exerting maximum anti-leishmanial effects were 40 mg/kg for AmBisome and 150 mg/kg (cumulatively) for miltefosine. AmBisome displayed a wider therapeutic range than miltefosine. Dose fractionation at a total dose of 2.5 mg/kg pointed towards concentration-dependent anti-leishmanial activity of AmBisome, favouring the administration of large doses infrequently. Protein binding was >99% for miltefosine and amphotericin B in plasma and tissue homogenates.Conclusion / SignificanceUsing a PK/PD approach we propose optimal dosing strategies for AmBisome. Additionally, we describe pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of miltefosine and compare our findings in a preclinical disease model to available knowledge from studies in humans. This approach also presents a strategy for improved use of animal models in the drug development process for VL. 相似文献

It is confirmed that prophylactic use of Pyracetam (500 mg/kg), Pikamilon (10 mg/kg) and new product of GABA B-44 (30 mg/kg) for 10-days in the conditions of chronic stress normalizes the activity of the key enzymes of antiradical defence and the content of lipid peroxides, warns the decrement of phospholipids and the changes in its qualitative ratio, prevents multidirectional changes in the activity of ferments-markers in the membrane of the brain and erythrocytes. It is concluded that nootropic agents give membrane stabilizing effects. 相似文献
