    Notes: Abstract The effects of disrupting the muscarinic or nicotinic systems on short-term spatial memory were investigated using a delayed matching to position (DMTP) procedure. Rats were trained on the DMTP until stability and then divided into two groups: one group was implanted with an indwelling cannula aimed at the lateral ventricle. The cannulated group received injections of selective muscarinic antagonists (pirenzepine, M1; AFDX 116, M2; UH-AH 37, M1/M3) or hemicholinium-3 (a choline uptake inhibitor). The remaining animals were treated with conventional muscarinic antagonists (scopolamine, methyl scopolamine) or nicotinic channel blockers (mecamylamine, hexamethonium). Scopolamine, methyl scopolamine and UH-AH 37 disrupted all performance parameters in a non-specific but dose related manner. Pirenzepine disrupted accuracy in a delay, but not dose dependent manner, and exerted no other negative effects on performance. Hemicholinium-3-induced performance deficits showed some elements of effects seen following pirenzepine and scopolamine (delay dependent effects on accuracy, some negative effects on other motoric aspects of performance). AFDX 116 and hexamethonium had no significant effects on performance with respect to control. Mecamylamine reduced accuracy and increased response latencies at the highest dose tested. These data indicate that muscarinic antagonists are more effective at disrupting mnemonic performance than nicotinic blockers, and moreover, that distinct muscarinic receptors may have differential effects on cognitive performance.

    Notes: Summary The effects of single dose (20 mg) and short-term (20 mg/day for 8 days) oral treatment with omeprazole on the pharmacokinetics and effects of oral nifedipine (10 mg capsule) and on gastric pH have been investigated in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled cross-over study in 10 non-smoking healthy male subjects. The single dose of omeprazole had no significant effect on any pharmacokinetic parameter of nifedipine, nor on gastric pH, or blood pressure or heart rate. Short-term omeprazole treatment increased the AUC of nifedipine by 26% (95% confidence interval 9–46%), but all other pharmacokinetic parameters of nifedipine, including elimination half-life, Cmax, tmax, and recovery of the main urinary metabolite, were not significantly changed. The median gastric pH during the absorption phase of nifedipine was increased by short-term omeprazole (pH 4.2) compared to placebo treatment (pH 1.4). Blood pressure and heart rate did not differ between treatments. The interaction between nifedipine and omeprazole is not likely to be of major clinical relevance.

    Notes: Abstract Tetrahydroaminoacridine (THA: Tacrine) has previously been shown to reverse deficits in spatial discrimination learning induced by hemicholinium-3 (HC-3). In the present experiments the effects of prior depletion of serotonin (5-HT) or noradrenaline (NA) on this reversal were examined. In the first experiment 5-HT lesions were made by injecting 5,7-DHT (2×50 µg/5 µl) into the lateral ventricles of rats pretreated with desmethylimipramine (DMI 25 mg/kg IP). A permanently indwelling guide tube was then implanted over the right lateral ventricle. Subsequent testing, under drug-free conditions, revealed no effect of the lesion on the number of trials needed to attain criterion (nine consecutive correct choices) in two-platform spatial discrimination learning in a watermaze. Using a latin square design rats were then tested for the effects of HC-3 and THA. HC-3 (5 µg/5 µl ICV) or placebo (CSF) were injected 60 min before the start of a 30-trial training session. THA (4.6, 10 mg/kg SC) or placebo were then injected 15 min before training. Choice accuracy but not choice latency was significantly impaired by HC-3 and the effect was reversed by THA in both sham operated and 5-HT lesioned rats. In the second experiment two injections of DSP-4 (50 mg/kg IP) were given, following cannulation, to deplete forebrain NA. The lesion had no effect on spatial learning under drug-free conditions and failed to block the THA-induced reversal of spatial discrimination learning deficits following HC-3. These results confirm that forebrain Ach depletion by HC-3 impairs spatial discrimination learning and that the deficit is reversed by THA. However, concommitant depletion of forebrain 5-HT or NA does not block the ameliorative effect of THA.

    Notes: Abstract This study was undertaken to determine whether the synthetic prostaglandin E2 analog enprostil is able to inhibit basal and postprandial hypergastrinemia induced by omeprazole. We also studied the effect of omeprazole, enprostil, and the combination of both drugs on serum pepsinogen A and C levels. Eight normal subjects received in random order five-day courses of 40 mg omeprazole once a day, 35 µg enprostil three times a day, the combination of both drugs, and placebo. Omeprazole induced significant increases in basal and postprandial serum gastrin and in pepsinogen A and C levels. These increments persisted on the day after stopping treatment. Coadministration of enprostil inhibited omeprazole-induced basal hypergastrinemia and postprandial integrated serum gastrin, but not basal serum pepsinogen A and C, while the inhibition on the day after the treatment courses only reached statistical significance for the postprandial integrated serum gastrin concentration. It is concluded that enprostil inhibits omeprazole-induced basal and postprandial hypergastrinemia, with a tendency to protracted inhibition after stopping the drugs, and that enprostil does not significantly influence omeprazole-induced increases in pepsinogen A and C level. Coadministration of enprostil may be helpful in preventing pronounced hypergastrinemia in the few patients who show large serum gastrin increases during treatment with omeprazole.
