    Notes: Abstract  The effects of the 5-HT4 receptor agonists BIMU 8, BIMU 1, renzapride and of the 5-HT1p receptor agonist 5-hydroxyindalpine on basal and electrically evoked outflow of tritium were studied in guinea-pig longitudinal muscle myenteric plexus preparations preincubated with [3H]choline. Muscle contractions were recorded simultaneously. BIMU 8 caused a calcium dependent and tetrodotoxin sensitive increase in basal [3H]outflow that was assumed to represent release of [3H]acetylcholine. In addition, BIMU 8 enhanced the release of [3H]acetylcholine and twitch contractions evoked by submaximal electrical stimulation. Ondansetron (1 μmol/l) did not change the effects of BIMU 8, but DAU 6285 and tropisetron (each 1 μmol/l) competitively antagonized the various facilitatory effects of BIMU 8 with pA2 values of 7.0–7.2 (DAU 6285) and 7.0–7.3 (tropisetron). The phosphodiesterase inhibitors IBMX and rolipram did not increase the effects of BIMU 8. BIMU 1 and renzapride also concentration-dependently increased basal release of acetylcholine, and release and contractions caused by submaximal stimulation. The effects of BIMU 1 and renzapride were competitively antagonized by 1 μmol/l tropisetron (pA2 6.6–7.1). The EC50 values for the increase in the evoked [3H]acetylcholine release and contractions were closely similar. 5-Hydroxyindalpine did not change basal release and slightly inhibited the evoked release of [3H]acetylcholine. Release of acetylcholine and contractions elicited by submaximal stimulation were strongly inhibited by (+)-tubocurarine which indicates that nicotinic ganglionic transmission is involved in this kind of release. The results suggest that BIMU 8, BIMU 1 and renzapride stimulate 5-HT4 receptors at cholinergic interneurones and thereby facilitate nicotinic ganglionic transmission in the myenteric plexus. Cyclic AMP is probably not involved in the 5-HT4 receptor mediated facilitation of acetylcholine release.

    Notes: Abstract Theγ-radiation from the10B(n,γ) reaction is studied using an unpolarized target. More accurate values for energies of transitions in11B could be determined. No new levels have been found. TheQ value of this reaction: 11,454.1 (2)keV, is in agreement with earlier experiments. Also a new value for the cross section could be derived: 0.29 (4) barn, which is a factor 5 more accurate than earlier experiments. The10B(n, α)7 Li reaction, leading to the 478 keV state in7Li, is studied by means of polarized10B nuclei and polarized neutrons. The resulting anisotropy in the directional distribution of the7Li particles manifests itself in the Doppler broadening of the 478 keV line. Analysis of the line shape directly yields the conclusion, that the reaction proceeds for more than 96% through theJ=7/2 channel of11B in case of destructive channel interference of theJ=5/2 channel. Constructive channel interference is only possible if the reaction proceeds for more than 99.5% through theJ=7/2 channel. It appeared that the outcomingα and7Li particles are emitted predominantly in directions perpendicular to the nuclear orientation axis.
