    Notes: Summary Isolated pancreatic islets of normoglycemic sand rats do not respond to 2.5 mM glucose with an enhanced glucagon secretion, which could be observed in normal Wistar rats. Arginine stimulates glucagon release in the presence of 2.5 mM glucose in Wistar rats as well as in sand rats. The secretion pattern is not caused by insulin deficiency since sand rat islets are characterized by an increased insulin secretion rate in vitro. This paradoxical glucagon secretion is not caused by a changed glucagon content but might be related to this species which is able to develop a diabetic syndrome spontaneously.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Am isolierten Meerschweinchenvorhof sowie an narkotisierten Katzen und Hunden wurde die Wirkung des Bencyclans auf Herz und Blutdruck untersucht. Es fanden sich folgende Ergebnisse: 1.) Bencyclan senkt dosisabhängig Kontraktionskraft, maximale Kontraktionsgeschwindigkeit und die Kontraktionsfrequenz am Meerschweinchenvorhof; dabei wird die funktionelle Refraktärzeit verlängert. 2.) Die negativ inotrope Wirkung des Bencyclans ist am Meerschweinchenvorhof durch Steigerung der Ca++-Konzentration aufhebbar. 3.) Bei gleichzeitiger Bencyclaneinwirkung bleibt die Orciprenalinwirkung am linken Vorhof unbeeinflußt, während die Serotoninwirkung abgeschwächt ist. 4.) 5mg/kg Bencyclan bewirken an der narkotisierten Katze einen signifikanten Abfall von Blutdruck und Kontraktilität des Herzens. Während der Blutdruck innerhalb weniger Minuten wieder den Vorwert erreicht, hält die Kontraktilitätsminderung länger an. 5.) 2 von 10 Katzen und 2 von 3 Hunden starben innerhalb weniger Minuten nachdem 5 mg/kg Bencyclan und 1 mg/kg Propranolol im Abstand von 15 min. injiziert wurden. 6.) Eine Vorbehandlung mit 20 mg/kg Propranolol i.m. steigert bei Mäusen die akute i.v.-Bencyclantoxizität nicht signifikant.
    Notes: Summary In the isolated guinea pigs atria as well as in anaesthetized cats and dogs we studied the cardiovascular effects of bencyclan. The following results were found: 1.) Bencyclan causes a dose-dependent diminution of the force of contraction, the maximal rate of rise of contraction, and the frequency of the isolated atria, while the functional refractory period is prolonged. 2.) The negative inotropic effect of bencyclan can be antagonized in the isolated atria by increasing Ca++-concentrations. 3.) In the isolated left atria the effect of orciprenaline is unchanged while the effect of serotonin is diminished by bencyclan. 4.) In the anaesthetized cat 5 mg/kg of bencyclan cause a significant decrease of blood-pressure and contractility. While the fall of blood-pressure is reversed within a few minutes, the contractility is diminished for a longer time. 5.) 2 of 10 cats and 2 of 3 dogs died within a few minutes when 5 mg/kg bencyclan and 1 mg/kg propranolol were injected within an interval of 15 minutes. 6.) Pretreatment with 20 mg/kg propranolol i.m. does not increase the acute toxicity of bencyclan in mice significantly.
