METHODS Under pentobarbital anesthesia,a proximal duodenal loop was perfused with saline,and the HCO_3 secretion was measured at pH 7.0 using a pH-stat method and by adding 10mM HCI.Nizatidine,neostigmine,carbachol or famotidine was administered i.v.as a single injection. RESULTS Intravenous administration of nizatidine(3-30 mg/kg)dose-dependently increased duodenal HCO_3^- secretion,and the effect at 10mg/kg was equivalent to that obtained by carbachol at 0.01 mg/kg.This nizatidine action was observed at the same dose range that inhibited acid secretion and enhanced gastric motility,mimicked by i.v.injection of neostigmine(0.03 mg/kg),and significantly attenuated by bilateral vagotomy and prior s.c. administration of atropine but not by indomethacin,a cyclooxygenase inhibitor,or N^G-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester,a NO synthase inhibitor.The HCO_3^- secretory response to acetylcholine(0.001 mg/kg)was significantly potentiated by the concurrent administration of nizatidine(3mg/kg,i.v.).The IC_(50)of nizatidine for AChE of rat erythrocytes was 1.4×10^(-6)M,about 12 times higher than that of neostigmine.Neither famotidine(>10^(-3)M, 30mg/kg,i.v.)nor cisapride(> 10^(-3)M, 3mg/kg,i.v.)had any influence on AChE activity or duodenal HCO_3^- secretion.Duodenal damage induced by acid perfusion(100 mM HCI for 4 h)in the presence of indomethacin was significantly prevented by nizatidine and neostigmine,at the doses that increased the HCO_3^- secretion. CONCLUSION Nizatidine stimulates duodenal HCO_3^- secretion,in both vagal-dependent and atropine-sensitive manners,and the action is associated with the anti-AChE activity of this agent.展开更多

We compared the effect between lafutidine and capsaicin, with respect to the interaction with endogenous prostaglandins （PG）, nitric oxide （NO） and the afferent neurons, including transient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 1 （TRPV1）. METHODS： Male SD rats and C57BL/6 mice, both wildtype and prostacyclin IP receptor knockout animals, were used after 18 h of fasting. Gastric lesions were induced by the po administration of HCl/ethanol （60% in 150 mmol/L HCl） in a volume of 1 mL for rats or 0.3 mL for mice. RESULTS： Both lafutidine and capsaicin （1-10 mg/kg, po） afforded dose-dependent protection against HCI/ ethanol in rats and mice. The effects were attenuated by both the ablation of CSN and pretreatment with NG-nitro- L-arginine methyl ester, yet only the effect of capsaicin was mitigated by prior administration of capsazepine, the TRPV1 antagonist, as well as indomethacin. Lafutidine protected the stomach against HCl/ethanol in IP receptor knockout mice, similar to wild-type animals, while capsaicin failed to afford protection in the animals lacking IP receptors. Neither of these agents affected the mucosal PGE2 or 6-keto PGF1α contents in rat stomachs. Capsaicin evoked an increase in [Ca^2＋]i in rat TRPV1-transfected HEK293 cells while lafutidine did not. CONCLUSION： These results suggest that although both lafutidine and capsaicin exhibit gastro-protective action mediated by CSN, the mode of their effects differs regarding the dependency on endogenous PGs/IP receptors and TRPV1. It is assumed that lafutidine interacts with CSN at yet unidentified sites other than TRPV1.展开更多

Hexametazidine possesses a concentration-dependent negative inotropic effect (IC_(50)=81.8±16.9μmol/L).The effect of hexametazidine(30.8μmol/L)was antago- nized completely by increasing the concentration of Ca^(2+)from 1.8 to 5.4mmol/L. Hexametazidine(30.8μmol/L)increased the threshold concentration of adrenaline for inducing the automaticity of the muscles from 3.95±1.80 to 6.67±4.84μmol/L (P<0.05).It prolonged the functional refractory period from 218±14 to 254±20ms (P<0.05)at the concentration of 61.6μmol/L.Hexametazidine(6.2μmol/L)antago- nized the positive inotropic effect of isoprenaline competitively and of histamine non-competitively(pA 2 and pD2′ values were 5.45 and 4.13, respectively).展开更多
