    Notes: 1. In chloralose anaesthetized rats, intravenous administration of captopril, SQ 20881, SA 446 or MK 421 (0.5 mg/kg) potentiated the depressor responses to arachidonic acid 3 mg/kg given intravenously.2. Same doses of the above angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors caused an approximately 100-fold decrease in sensitivity to the pressor effects of angiotensin I, with a concomitant similar increase in sensitivity to the depressor effects of bradykinin.3. Depressor responses to arachidonic acid, both before and after administering the converting enzyme inhibitors, were abolished by intravenous indomethacin (5 mg/kg).4. These results suggest that increased synthesis of prostaglandins in the circulation may contribute to the hypotensive effect of the angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, a group of newly developed antihypertensive agents.

    Notes: 1. Captopril (1–5 mg/kg, i.v.) did not affect the vasodepressor responses to substance P (1–30 μg/kg, i.v.) in anaesthetized rats.2. Substance P (100 μg/kg, s.c.) produced significant algesia in mice; this was not potentiated by the smaller doses of captopril (1–2 mg/kg, i.p.), but was instead antagonized by the high dose (5 mg/kg, i.p.).3. It is concluded that captopril does not have any influence on substance P degradation in vivo since the pharmacological actions of the undecapeptide are not enhanced after captopril treatment.

    Notes: 1. The mechanisms underlying potentiation by captopril of the depressor responses to arachidonic acid were studied in chloralose-anaesthetized rats.2. Captopril, in a dose (0.5 mg/kg, i.v.) which inhibited the pressor responses to angiotensin I (0.03-1 μg/kg, i.v.), enhanced the depressor responses to bradykinin (3-300 μg/kg, i.v.) and potentiated the hypotensive action of arachidonic acid (3 mg/kg, intravenously). This phenomenon was observed not only when captopril and arachidonic acid were administered intravenously, but also when these compounds were injected directly into the aortic arch.3. The enhancement of arachidonic acid-induced hypotension by captopril was not significantly affected by pretreatment with a low dose of aprotinin (3 mg/kg, i.v.), but was abolished by bilateral nephrectomy or by pretreatment with a higher dose of aprotinin (6 mg/kg, i.v.).4. It is suggested that captopril augments the depressor responses to arachidonic acid by inhibiting angiotensin converting enzyme. This results in accumulation of bradykinin which in turn increases release of vasodilator prostaglandins, originating most probably, from the kidneys. The possibility that blockade of angiotensin II formation by captopril may leave the vasodilator action of prostaglandin unopposed cannot be excluded.

    Notes: 1. The changes in plasma levels of thromboxane-B2 (TXB2) and 6-keto-prostaglandin-F1α(6-keto-PGF1α) were examined in rats given 5, 25, 50 or 100 μg/mL nicotine in drinking water for 10 days.2. The effect of nicotine on prostacyclin (PGI2) synthesis from endogenous arachidonic acid by cultured rabbit aortic smooth muscle cells was also studied.3. Plasma levels of TXB2 were increased dose-dependently by treatment for 10 days with nicotine.4. 6-Keto-PGF1α values were lowered dose-dependently, both in the plasma of nicotine-treated rats and in rabbit aortic smooth muscle cells incubated with the alkaloid.5. The results suggest that endogenous synthesis of thromboxane-A2 and PGI2, as reflected by TXB2 and 6-keto-PGF1α levels, respectively, is influenced by nicotine treatment. These findings may be related to cardiovascular diseases associated with cigarette smoking, but further studies are needed.

    Notes: [Auszug] Oxytocic activity in plasma has now been measured in rats, some of which were exposed and some not exposed to 150 c/s, and also it has been measured 30 and 60 min after subcutaneous administration of oxytocin (4 and 20 mil/animal). Water loading and auditory excitation were carried out as before1. ...

    Notes: Summary Stress-induced gastric glandular ulcers in rats appeared less severe than those evoked by reserpine, although glandular mucosal mast cell counts were equally decreased. Prior depletion of the glandular mucosal mast cell population confirmed the hypothesis that an additional mechanism contributes to reserpine ulceration.

    Notes: Abstract Ten-day treatment with nicotine, (5, 25 or 50 μg/ml drinking water) dose-dependently intensified gastric ulceration induced by cold-restraint, and emptying rate. Stomach contractions produced by graded doses of bethanechol i.v. were elevated further by nicotine treatment. It is suggested that chronic nicotine administration produces hypersensitivity of the gastric muscarinic receptors; stomach hypermotility contributes to the ulcer-worsening action of the alkaloid

    Notes: Abstract Treatment 20 min beforehand with an inhibitor of nitric oxide (NO) synthesis, NW-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) (12.5, 25, 50 or 100 mg/kg, s.c.), dose-dependently intensified gastric glandular mucosal ulceration produced by cold-restraint stress. Hexamethonium (20 mg/kg) or atropine (1 mg/kg) pretreatment s.c. 20 min before stress strongly antagonised stress-evoked ulceration, as well as the ulcer-potentiating effects of L-NAME when either cholinoceptor antagonist was given concurrently with the NO inhibitor. Stress-induced mast cell degranulation was not worsened by L-NAME pretreatment. The findings suggest that NO could confer partial protection against stress-induced gastric ulcer formation; its activity is triggered off by the ulcerogenic mechanism of stress.

    Notes: Summary Nicotine, in concentrations of 5 and 25 μg/ml drinking water, given ad libitum for 10 days, dose-dependently increased lesion formation and worsened ethanol-induced ulceration in rat stomachs. Daily fluid intake and b.wt gain were not adversely affected by nicotine pretreatment.

    Notes: Summary N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) 10 or 25 mg/kg b.wt, given s.c. 20 min beforehand, dose-dependently and significantly antagonizes the severity of gastric glandular ulcers produced by restraint at 4°C (stress) for 2 h. These findings suggest that reduced activity of endogenous nonprotein sulfhydryl substances in gastric tissue does not worsen stress-induced ulceration in rat stomachs, unlike the deleterious effect its depletion is claimed to have on ethanol-evoked gastric mucosal damage. Thus, decreased SH activity appears not to play a role in the aetiology of mucosal ulcers due to stress.
