Calcium flux and binding in the aortic smooth muscle from the spontaneously hypertensive rat.

There was no significant difference in the tissue calcium content between spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) and normotensive rat aortae. 45Ca uptake was significantly greater, whereas 45Ca influx was significantly less in SHR than in control aortae. There was no difference in 45Ca efflux in SHR and control tissues. 45Ca influx in both SHR and control tissues was increased by potassium, not increased by norepinephrine and inhibited by Co++, Mn++ and La+++ (all 0.5 mM). Both SHR and control aortae were equally inhibited by Mn++ and Co++ (0.1 mM). There was no difference in the 45Ca uptake by microsome fraction from both SHR and control tissue. These data indicate some differences in the translocation of Ca++ at the cellular level in SHR and control aortae.

The digital circulation in congestive heart failure.

Congestive heart failure (CHF) is a complex clinical entity which is still little understood pathophysiologically. Unless it is in the intractable state it responds well to therapy. It has been known for many years that the peripheral circulation can be dramatically altered when CHF is progressively and rapidly developing and worsening. As compensation develops, these changes gradually return to normal. We have long been studying the digital circulation of patients with CHF and have been impressed with the changes in the behavior of the peripheral blood vessels in these patients.

Effects of digitalis on cardiopulmonary baroreflex in man.

We examined whether digitalis augments cardiopulmonary baroreflex control of forearm vascular resistance in normal young men. Cardiopulmonary baroreceptor input was reduced with lower body negative pressure (LBNP) at 10 and 20 mmHg which decreased central venous pressure (CVP) but did not alter blood pressure (BP) or heart rate (HR). Decreases in forearm blood flow and increases in forearm vascular resistance with LBNP were greater after cedilanid than before and the slope of the regression line relating changes in central venous pressure and those in forearm vascular resistance was steeper after cedilanid. Vasoconstrictor responses to a cold pressor test did not differ before and after cedilanid, which suggested that augmented responses to LBNP after cedilanid were not due to a generalized change in reflex control. These results suggest that cedilaniid augments the tonic inhibitory influence of cardiopulmonary baroreceptors in normal men.

The effects of the purinergic system on digitalis-induced epileptiform activity.

It has been suggested that endogenous chemical substances, such as adenosine, released during a seizure attack, may act as anticonvulsants in vivo. We have investigated electrophysiologically the effects of purinoceptor agonists and antagonists on the epileptiform activity induced by intracortical digitalis in anesthetized rats. Intracortical injections of 1, 2, or 4 micrograms digitalis (desacetyl lanatocid C) caused an epileptiform electrocorticogram (ECoG). The application of adenosine (25 or 100 microM) or adenosine triphosphate (ATP) (3 mM) after desacetyl lanatocid C blocked the epileptiform activity. beta, gamma-Methylene ATP (0.1-0.8 mM), a stable analog of ATP, produced inhibition and then death. The epileptogenic effect of desacetyl lanatocid C was enhanced by theophylline (1 mM); however, suramin (1 mM) changed the pattern of epilepsy. These results indicate that the purinergic system may be involved in the mechanism of action of digitalis glycosides.
