The rats were given i.g. Sim (1.8 and 3.6 mg.kg-1.d-1) for 8 wk. Three days after operation, left ventricular function was measured. Then the left ventricle (LV) + septum and the right ventricle (RV) were weighed. Hydroxyproline content of LV was measured.Results: Eight weeks later, in the LVH group, LV weight (LVW), LVW/body weight (BW), LVW/RV weight (RVW), LV ending diastolic pressure (LVEDP), and hydroxyproline content increased by 36%, 51%, 28%, 92%, and 23%, respectively (all P < 0.01) compared with the sham group.

The former consisted of 17 short-latency abrupt (SLA) neurons, 11 short-latency sustained (SLS) neurons, 9 long-latency (LL) neurons. The 15 inhibited (Inh) neurons were recorded. 2) Microelectrophoretic administration of NMDA, quisqualic acid (QA), and kainic acid (KA) activated 67.6%, 78.4%, and 59.5% of the colorectal distension-excited neurons tested. Also, 60%, 86.7%, and 53.3% of Inh neurons were activated by these 3 amino acids. 3) Colorectal distension-induced excitatory responses were reduced by 35% +/- 10% and 65% +/- 14% by a selective NMDA receptor antagonist d,l-2-amino-5-phosphonovalerate (APV) and a selective non-NMDA receptor antagonist 6,7-dinitro-quinoxaline-2,3-dione (DNQX), respectively. Such DNQX-induced inhibition was significantly more potent than that by APV (P < 0.05). Colorectal distension-induced inhibitory responses were partially relieved by 30%-50% in 3/7 Inh neurons by DNQX, but not APV.Conclusion: Both NMDA and non-NMDA receptors are involved in transmission and/or modulation of spinal visceral nociceptive information and non-NMDA receptors may play more important role than NMDA receptors.","PeriodicalId":24002,"journal":{"name":"Zhongguo yao li xue bao = Acta pharmacologica Sinica","volume":"20 4","pages":"308-12"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21316346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Effects of NO on rabbit platelets were tested by cultured bovine endothelial cells (BAEC).Results: BAEC (0.1-1 x 10(9).L-1) inhibited thrombin (100 U.L-1)-induced platelet aggregation in a concentration-dependent manner. This inhibiting effect was abolished by preincubating BAEC with NG-nitro-L-arginine 1 mmol.L-1. When the [Ca2+]i store was depleted with ionomycin in the presence of egtazic acid (EGTA), the increase in pHi induced by thrombin was inhibited. Refilling intracellular Ca2+ store partially reversed this effect. BAEC 2 x 10(8).L-1 inhibited thrombin (100 U.L-1)-induced elevation of pHi and mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ store (P < 0.01). No direct effect of endothelial cells on unstimulated rabbit platelets was observed.Conclusion: NO derived from endothelial cells inhibited thrombin-induced rabbit platelet activation by inhibiting thrombin-induced [Ca2+]i mobilization and then inhibiting the consequent Na+/H+ exchange in rabbit platelets.","PeriodicalId":24002,"journal":{"name":"Zhongguo yao li xue bao = Acta pharmacologica Sinica","volume":"20 4","pages":"333-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21316422","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry.Results: Exposing tumor cell lines tested to salvicine for 72 h, in comparison with reference drugs vincristine (VCR) and etoposide (VP-16), salvicine was as cytotoxic as VP-16 and weaker than VCR in 3 leukemia cell lines. For 12 solid tumor cell lines, salvicine exhibited cytotoxic activities and was over 5.41- and 4.15-fold stronger than VCR and VP-16, respectively. Salvicine presented better activities especially against gastric and lung carcinoma cell lines. Exposing K562 leukemia cells to 9 graded concentrations of salvicine (from 0.39 to 100 mumol.L-1) for 24 h and to salvicine 10 mumol.L-1 for 7 different periods (from 1 to 48 h), the growth inhibition of cells was enhanced along with increased concentration or prolonged exposure. Cell cycle analysis demonstrated that salvicine arrested K562 cells in G1 phase and this effect was also heightened with increased concentration or extended exposure.Conclusion: Salvicine exhibited potent cytotoxic activities against various human tumor cell lines, and blocked K562 leukemia cells in G1 phase of cell cycle.","PeriodicalId":24002,"journal":{"name":"Zhongguo yao li xue bao = Acta pharmacologica Sinica","volume":"20 4","pages":"297-302"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21316343","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
