    Notes: Summary This report of a 27-year-old patient describes an extensive infarction of the anterior wall due to primary dissection of the left coronary artery in the absence of the circumflex artery followed by rupture of the left ventricle. In earlier reports an aortocoronary bypass operation was usually performed in similar situations. Although the final outcome was lethal, this case report shows recanalization by methods of “interventional cardiology” to be a potentially successful alternative which may be of value when bypass operation is not available or contraindicated, as in developing cardiogenic shock. This case report demonstrates an initially successful treatment, which after a stable interval was followed by a lethal complication, namely, rupture of the ventricle due to hemorrhagic infarction.

    Notes: Summary It has been reported that during chronic treatment with digitalis, the number of digitalis binding sites is increased in human erythrocytes [22]. From this finding a tachyphylaxis for cardiac glycosides has been postulated. We reinvestigated this problem in several groups of patients. The number of3H-ouabain binding sites per erythrocyte in control persons (group I) was 214±60,n=43 (x±SD). The dissociation constant (KD) was 1.8±0.5 nM. Thirteen patients (group II) taking cardiac glycosides only, for at least 6 months, had 281±99 (p〈0.05) ouabain binding sites per single red cell, KD=1.8±0.7 nM. Group III (34 patients) took digitalis for more than 6 months and diuretics for at least 3 months (352±126 (p〈0.001), KD=1.6±0.6). Twenty-three of these (group IV) were taking a combination with “K+-saving” diuretics (336±194 (p〈0.01), KD=1.6±0.5) and (group V, 11 patients) a combination with “K+-losing” diuretics (462±133 (p〈0.001), KD=1.4±0.4). Nine patients (group VI) had a chronic hypokalemia, mainly due to taking furosemide (437±98 (p〈0.001), KD=1.5±0.4). Four control persons took 50 mg hydrochlorothiazide daily for more than 4 months without measurable K+-losses and without changes in ouabain binding sites. It is concluded from these findings that diuretic treatment with chronic hypokalemia in addition to digitalis is accompanied by a significant increase in ouabain binding sites in human red cells. Although the difference between control persons and those taking cardiac glycosides only, is statistically significant (p〈0.05), the biological relevance is questionable because of considerable overlap of the values. Receptor affinity was unchanged under all circumstances. A change in the number of ouabain binding sites — if occurring also in the heart — may go along with an altered digitalis sensitivity.

    Notes: Summary On intact human lymphocytes a specific binding site (BS) for125I-Cyanopindolol (125I-CYP), a derivative of the β-blocking drug pindolol, was characterized. Inhibition of binding for catecholamines in the following order of potency: l-isoprenaline 〉 l-adrenaline 〉 l-noradrenaline proves the BS as a β2-receptor subtype. In 77 healthy persons (36 females, 41 males) the number of BS amounted to 2,639±125 BS/cell without any significant correlation to age (17–86 years) or sex. The dissociation constant (KD) indicating the affinity of iodocyanopindolol to the BS on intact lymphocytes was K d =1.9±1.1×10−10 M. A change of the number of β-adrenergic receptors on intact human lymphocytes has been measured previously in asthmatics and in the myocardium of patients with congestive heart failure. We investigated a possible change in the β-receptors on lymphocytes by physical and mental activity (“stress”) in physicians going about their daily routine work. Persons left alone in a hospital room reading or sleeping were defined as “inactive controls”. The number of BS on intact lymphocytes was significantly higher in inactive persons at 8 a.m. (2,230±482 BS) compared to active persons (1,743±285 BS;P〈0.05) and at 1 p.m. (2,394±253 BS vs 1,733±556;P〈0.05) but not different at 6 p.m. (1,634±578 BS vs 1,768±588 BS;P〈0.1). The K d remained unchanged under all conditions. The serum noradrenaline and adrenaline levels were also measured during the day. The serum adrenaline levels were higher in the active group than in the inactive group at 8 a.m. (46±11 pg/ml vs 22±8 pg/ml;P〈0.01) and at 1 p.m. (36±13 pg/ml vs 13±5 pg/ml;P〈0.01) but not at 6 p.m. (37±28 pg/ml vs 13±6 pg/ml;P〈0.1). Our data clearly show higher serum adrenaline levels but fewer BS on intact human lymphocytes in active persons than in inactive persons at 8 a.m. and 1 p.m. The high catecholamine serum levels may cause a down-regulation of the number of β-receptors in the active persons.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Es wird über Erfahrungen berichtet, die in 5 Jahren an Hanford-Miniaturschweinen gesammelt wurden. Den Schwerpunkt der beschriebenen operativen Techniken bilden chronische Katheterimplantationen zur streßfreien Injektion oder Infusion und Materialentnahme (Blut, Magensaft, Urin) am wachen Tier. Unter anderem wird eine Methode zur simultanen Katheterisierung einer Mesenterialvene und der Pfortader beschrieben, die neben den oben erwähnten Möglichkeiten Pfortaderdruck- und Pfortaderflowmessungen erlaubt. Daneben werden physiologische Größen, die an einer größeren Zahl von Hanford-Miniaturschweinen gewonnen wurden, mitgeteilt.
    Notes: Summary Hanford miniature pigs have been used as experimental animals in our laboratory for 5 years. Main object of the operative procedures, developped during this time, was the chronic implantation of catheters for injection and infusion or withdrawal of body fluids (blood, gastric juice, urine) without stress in unaesthetized animals. Thus a method for simultaneous catheterisation of a mesenteric vein and vena portae is described which allows besides the already mentioned possibilities the measuring of portal venous pressure and portal blood flow. Physiological data observed in these animals are reported.

    Notes: Summary Stereospecific binding sites for (−) [3H]-alprenolol, a β-adrenergic antagonist, have been identified in guinea-pig myocardial broken cell preparations. The concentration of the sites was 0.3 pmoles per mg of protein and the dissociation constant (at 37°C) 10−8 M. A close correlation between the ability of various β-adrenergic antagonists to compete with tracer alprenolol binding and to block the response of isoprenaline-stimulated myocardial adenylate cyclase has been found. Low affinity sites for the labelled β-adrenergic antagonist in contrast to stereospecific sites are heat stable and do not discriminate between the (−) and the (+) forms of the β-adrenergic antagonists. Adenylate cyclase in guineapig myocardial tissue is poorly stimulated by isoprenaline or 5′-guanylylimidodiphosphate. This is attributed to a high basal activity which could be lowered by a preincubation at 37°C.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die in letzter Zeit mehrfach berichteten direkten myokardialen Wirkungen der antikaliuretischen Diuretika Kanrenoat-Kalium und Triamteren wurden an herzkranken Patienten der Intensivstation überprüft. Außerdem wurden die Membraneffekte dieser Pharmaka auf die [3H]g-Strophanthinbindung an den Herzglykosidrezeptor und die (Na++K+)-ATPase-Aktivität isolierter menschlicher Herzmuskelzellmembranen gemessen, um die ihren Wirkungen zugrunde liegenden biochemischen Vorgänge aufzuklären. Mit Hilfe von Einschwemmkathetern (Swan-Ganz) in die A. pulmonalis und der Thermodilutionsmethode wurde das Herzminutenvolumen bei 16 Patienten gemessen. Triamteren (100–2000 mg p.o.) sowie Kanrenoat-Kalium in einer Dosierung von 200–1000 mg i.v. riefen keine signifikanten Änderungen der Meßwerte hervor. Nur nach der wiederholten intravenösen Applikation von Kanrenoat-Kalium (200 mg und nach 60 min 400 mg) konnte bei 7 Patienten ein Anstieg des Herzminutenvolumens um 11% (p〈0,05) gemessen werden. Bei 14 Patienten mit ventrikulärer Extrasystolie in Koinzidenz mit Digoxinkonzentrationen im Serum von 1,6–4,4 ng/ml war lediglich in 2 Fällen ein antiarrhythmischer Effekt durch Gabe von Kanrenoat-Kalium (200–400 mg i.v.) zu verzeichnen. Wegen seiner strukturellen Ähnlichkeit mit Herzglykosiden und seiner positiv inotropen Wirksamkeit liegt es nahe anzunehmen, daß Kanrenoat-Kalium wie Herzglykoside eine Bindung mit dem Herzglykosidrezeptor eingeht und wie diese die (Na++K+)-ATPase hemmt. Tatsächlich verdrängt Kanrenon, der Metabolit des Kanrenoat-Kalium, radioaktiv markiertes g-Strophanthin aus der Rezeptorbindung und hemmt die (Na++K+)-ATPase in den Konzentrationen, die auch in vivo nach therapeutischer Applikation gemessen worden sind. Bei Triamteren treten diese Wirkungen erst bei extrem hohen Konzentrationen auf, was auf unspezifische Effekte schließen läßt. Da Kanrenon an der Zellmembran Herzglykosidähnliche Eigenschaften hat, sind Digitalis-antagonistische (antiarrhythmische) Wirkungen nicht zu erwarten, während der positiv inotrope Effekt erklärlich ist.
    Notes: Summary Recently direct myocardial effects of antikaliuretic diuretics with respect to contractility parameters and prevention of digitalis-induced arrhythmias were published. In order to test the value of these reports we measured the effect of potassium-canrenoate and triamterene on cardiac output and on digitalis-induced arrhythmias in patients during diagnostic and therapeutic flow directed right heart catheterization (Swan-Ganz) in our intensive care unit. In addition the influence of these drugs on (Na++K+)-ATPase and on [3H]g-strophanthin binding to human cardiac cell membranes was investigated to gain information on the mechanism of their action. Triamterene (100–200 mg p.o.) was without any effect on cardiac output, the same was found true for potassium-canrenoate given in a single dose (200–1000 mg intravenously). However, when applied in two doses (200 mg i.v. and 60 min later 400 mg i.v.), potassium-canrenoate increased cardiac output by 11 per cent (p〈0.05). Only in 2 out of 14 patients potassium-canrenoate (200–400 mg i.v.) suppressed digitalis-induced ventricular ectopic beats. Canrenone, the active metabolite of potassium-canrenoate displaces [3H]g-strophanthin from its binding sites in human cardiac cell membranes and inhibits (Na++K+)-ATPase activity. These in vitro effects were measured at the same concentrations as found in vivo after “therapeutical” doses. The effects of triamterene in this respect were found only in extremely high concentrations. Our results imply that canrenone has cardiac glycoside-like effects in human cardiac cell membranes.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Es wurde der Einfluß des positiv inotropen Spurenelementes Vanadium (verwendet als Na3VO4) auf die β-Rezeptor-gekoppelte Adenylatzyklaseaktivität aus menschlichem Herzmuskelgewebe untersucht. Na3VO4 (10−4 M) stimuliert 1,5–2,4fach sowohl die Basalaktivität als auch die durch Isoprenalin (10 μM) und durch Mg2+ (20 mM) aktivierte Enzymaktivität. Im Gegensatz dazu kann die durch Gpp(NH)p (10 μm) maximal aktivierte Adenylatzyklaseaktivität durch Vanadat nicht weiter gesteigert werden. Die experimentellen Befunde bestärken die Annahme (5), daß Vanadat die Adenylatzyklase über eine Wechselwirkung mit der Nukleotidbindungsstelle des Enzyms stimuliert.
    Notes: Summary Experiments have been carried out to characterize the influence of the positive inotropic trace element vanadium (used as Na3VO4) on β-adrenergic receptor coupled adenylate cyclase activity from human myocardium. Na3VO4 (10−4 M) stimulates basal activity as well as isoprenaline (10 μM)- and Mg2+ (20 mM)-activated enzyme activity 1.5–2.4-fold. In contrast, adenylate cyclase activity in the presence of maximally activating concentrations of Gpp(NH)p (10 μM) cannot be further increased by Na3VO4. The results confirm the assumption (5) that vanadate stimulates adenylate cyclase by interacting with the nucleotide-binding site of this enzyme.
