  • 시상하부 조각에서 카테콜아민의 분비에 대한 포도당의 영향을 관찰하였다. 카테콜아민의 기초분비는 포도당의 농도$(5{\sim}30mM)$에 반비례하였다. Tetrodotoxin $(10\;{\mu}M)$의 존재하에서 카테콜아민의 기초분비에 대한 포도당의 억제 작용은 대부분 유지되었으나, 도파민에 대한 30 mM 포도당의 억제 작용은 거의 봉쇄되었다. Tetrodotoxin $(10\;{\mu}M)$과 desipramine $(3\;{\mu}M)$의 존재하에서는 카테콜아민의 기초분비에 대한 포도당의 영향이 없었다. 이상의 결과는 포도당이 transsynaptic action 뿐 아니라 카테콜아민 신경세포 말단에 대한 직접 작용을 통하여 카테콜아민의 분비를 조절할 것임을 시사한다. 카테콜아민의 분비에 대한 포도당의 조절작용은 당뇨상태에서의 시상하부 카테콜아민 대사의 변화를 적어도 부분적으로는 설명할 수 있으리라 사료된다.

  • Fluorides were supposed to exert a stimulatory action on the catecholamine release. In this study, the authors attempted to investigate the action of sodium fluoride on the catecholamine release from the isolated perfused cow adrenal gland and rat heart. And also the inhibitory effect of sodium fluoride on the monoamine oxidase activity in rat heart and liver mitochondria was investigated. The monoamine oxidase activity was measured by the conversion of benzylamine to benzaldehyde. The results obtained were follows; 1. Sodium fluoride stimulated the release of catecholamine from the isolated perfused cow adrenal gland and rat heart. 2. Sodium fluoride inhibited the rat heart and liver mitochondrial monoamine oxidase activity.

  • The aim of the present study was to determine the characteristics of cytisine on the secretion of catecholamines (CA) in isolated perfused rat adrenal glands, and to clarify its mechanism of action. The release of CA evoked by the continuous infusion of cytisine ($1.5{\times}10^{-5} M$) was time-dependently reduced from 15 min following the initiation of cytisine infusion. Furthermore, upon the repeated injection of cytisine ($5{\times}10^{-5}$), at 30 min intervals into an adrenal vein, the secretion of CA was rapidly decreased following the second injection. Tachyphylaxis to the release of CA was observed by the repeated administration of cytisine. The cytisine-induced secretion of CA was markedly inhibited by pretreatment with chlorisondamine, nicardipine, TMB-8, and the perfusion of $Ca^{2+}$-free Krebs solution, while it was not affected by pirenzepine or diphenhydramine. Moreover, the secretion of CA evoked by ACh was time-dependently inhibited by the prior perfusion of cytisine ($5{\times}10^{-6} M$). Taken together, these experimental data suggest that cytisine causes secretion of catecholamines from the perfused rat adrenal glands in a calcium-dependent fashion through the activation of neuronal nicotinic ACh receptors located in adrenomedullary chromaffin cells. It also seems that the cytisine-evoked release of catecholamine is not relevant to the activation of cholinergic M$_1$-muscarinic or histaminergic receptors.

  • The present study was conducted to investigate the effects of pinacidil, a potassium channel opener, on arterial blood pressure, catecholamine release and vascular contractile responses in the normotensve rats and to establish the mechanism of action. Phenylephrine (an adrenergi $_1$-receptor agonist) and high potassium (a membrane- depolarizing agent) caused greatly contractile responses in the isolated aortic strips, respectively. These phenylephrine (10$\^$-5/ M)-induced contractile responses were dose-dependently depressed in the presence of pinacidil (25 ∼ 100 ${\mu}$M). (omitted)

  • The present study was designed to investigate the effects of green tea extract (CUMC6335) and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) on secretion of catecholamines (CA) in the isolated perfused rat adrenal gland. ill the presence of CUMC6335 (100 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL) into an adrenal vein for 60 min, CA secretory responses evoked by ACh(5.32 mM), high $K^+$ (56 mM) and Bay-K-8644 (10$\mu$M for 4 min) from the isolated perfused rat adrenal glands were greatly inhibited in a time-dependent fashion. However, EGCG (8 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL) did not affect CA release evoked by ACh, high $K^+$ and Bay-K-8644. CUMC6335 itself did fail to affect basal catecholamine output. Taken together, these results demonstrate that CUMC6335 inhibits greatly CA secretion evoked by stimulation of cholinergic nicotinic receptors as well as by the direct membrane deplarization from the isolated perfused rat adrenal gland. It is felt that this inhibitory effect of CUMC6335 may be due to blocking action of the L-type dihydropyridine calcium channels in the rat adrenal medullary chromaffin cells, which is relevant to the cholinergic nicotinic blockade. It seems that there is a big difference in mode of action between CUMC6335 and EGCG.

  • Preconditioning of a heart with small doses of catecholamines induces a tolerance against the subsequent lethal ischemia. The present study was performed to find a specific receptor pathway involved with the catecholamine preconditioning and to test if adenosine plays a role in this cardioprotective effect. Isolated rat hearts, pretreated with small doses of ${\alpha}-\;or\;{\beta}-adrenergic$ agonists/antagonists, were subjected to 20 minutes ischemia and 20 minutes reperfusion by Langendorff perfusion method. Cardiac mechanical functions, lactate dehydrogenase and adenosine release from the hearts were measured before and after the drug treatments and ischemia. In another series of experiments, adenosine $A_1\;or\;A_2$ receptor blockers were treated prior to administration of adrenergic agonists. Pretreatments of a ${\beta}-agonist,\;isoproterenol(10^{-9}{\sim}10^{-7}\;M)$ markedly improved the post-ischemic mechanical function and reduced the lactate dehydrogenase release. Similar cardioprotective effect was observed with an ?-agonist, phenylephrine pretreatment, but much higher $concentration(10^{-4}\;M)$ was needed to achieve the same degree of cardioprotection. The cardioprotective effects of isoproterenol and phenylephrine pretreatments were blocked by a ${\beta}_1-adrenergic$ receptor antagonist, atenolol, but not by an ${\alpha}_1-antagonist,$ prazosin. Adenosine release from the heart was increased by isoproterenol, and the increase was also blocked by atenolol, but not by prazosin. A selective $A_1-adenosine$ receptor antagonist, 1,3-dipropyl-8-cyclopentyl xanthine (DPCPX) blocked the cardioprotection by isoproterenol pretreatment. These results suggest that catecholamine pretreatment protects rat myocardium against ischemia and reperfusion injury by mediation of ${\beta}_1-adrenergic$ receptor pathway, and that adenosine is involved in this cardioprotective effect.

  • 흰쥐 적출관류 부신에서 선택적인 nicotine 수용체 효능약인 DMPP(1,1-dimethyl-4-phenylpiperazinium)와 acetylcholine(ACh)의 카테콜아민(CA) 분비작용에 대한 opioids의 영향을 연구하고자 시행하여 얻어진 연구결과는 다음과 같다. Methionine-enkephalin$(9.68{\times}10^{-6}\;M)$으로 전처치시 DMPP(100 uM)과 $ACh(50\;{\mu}g)$에 의한 CA 유리작용이 현저히 억제되었으며 basal CA release는 영향을 받지 않았다. Morphine$(1.73{\times}10^{-5}\;M)$으로 전처치시 DMPP 및 excess $K^+$의 CA 분비작용은 뚜렷이 약화되었다. Morphine 역시 그자체는 basal CA release에는 영향을 미치지 않았다. Opiate 수용체 길항제인 naloxone$(1.22{\times}10^{-7}\;M)$은 DMPP 및 ACh에 의한 CA 분비작용을 현저히 차단 하였으나 basal CA release에는 영향을 미치지 못하였다. 이와 같은 연구결과로 보아, 흰쥐 관류 부신에서 니코틴 수용체에 의한 CA 분비작용은 내인성 opioid peptide에 의해서 억제되며, 이는 부신에 존재하는 opiate 수용체 흥분작용에 기인되는 것으로 사료된다.

  • The present study was designed to establish comparatively the inhibitory effects of cilnidipine(CNP), nifedipine(NIF), and $\omega$-conotoxin GVIA(CTX) on the release of CA evoked by cholinergic stimulation and membrane depolarization from the isolated perfused model of the rat adrenal medulla. CNP(3 ${\mu}M$), NIF(3 ${\mu}M$), and CTX(3 ${\mu}M$) perfused into an adrenal vein for 60 min produced greatly inhibition in CA secretory responses evoked by ACh($5.32{\times}10^{-3}M$), DMPP($10^{-4}M$ for 2 min), McN-A-343($10^{-4}M$ for 2 min), high $K^+(5.6{\times}10^{-2}M)$, Bay-K-8644($10^{-5}M$), and cyclopiazonic acid($10^{-5}M$), respectively. For the CA release evoked by ACh and Bay-K-8644, the following rank order of potency was obtained: CNP>NIF>CTX. The rank order for the CA release evoked by McN-A-343 and cyclopiazonic acid was CNP>NIF>CTX. Also, the rank orders for high $K^+$ and for DMPP were NIF>CTX>CNP and NIF>CNP>CTX, respectively. Taken together, these results demonstrate that all voltage-dependent $Ca^{2+}$ channels(VDCCs) blockers of cilnidipine, nifedipine, and $\omega$-conotoxin GVIA inhibit greatly the CA release evoked by stimulation of cholinergic(both nicotinic and muscarinic) receptors and the membrane depolarization without affecting the basal release from the isolated perfused rat adrenal gland. It seems likely that the inhibitory effects of cilnidipine, nifedipine, and $\omega$-conotoxin GVIA are mediated by the blockade of both L- and N-type, L-type only, and N-type only VDCCs located on the rat adrenomedullary chromaffin cells, respectively, which are relevant to $Ca^{2+}$ mobilization. It is also suggested that N-type VDCCs play an important role in the rat adrenomedullary CA secretion, in addition to L-type VDCCs.

  • The aim of this study was to determine whether losartan, an angiotensin II (Ang II) type 1 ($AT_1$) receptor could influence the CA release from the isolated perfused model of the rat adrenal medulla. Losartan (5${\sim}$50 ${\mu}$M) perfused into an adrenal vein for 90 min produced dose- and time-dependent inhibition of the CA secretory responses evoked by ACh (5.32 mM), high $K^+$ (56 mM, a direct membrane depolarizer), DMPP (100 ${\mu}$M) and McN-A-343 (100 ${\mu}$M). Losartan failed to affect basal CA output. Furthermore, in adrenal glands loaded with losartan (15 ${\mu}$M) for 90 min, the CA secretory responses evoked by Bay-K-8644 (10 ${\mu}$M, an activator of L-type $Ca^{2+}$ channels), cyclopiazonic acid (10 ${\mu}$M, an inhibitor of cytoplasmic $Ca^{2+}$ -ATPase), veratridine (100 ${\mu}$M, an activator of $Na^+$ channels), and Ang II (100 nM) were markedly inhibited. However, at high concentrations (150${\sim}$300 ${\mu}$M), losartan rather enhanced the CA secretion evoked by ACh. Collectively, these experimental results suggest that losartan at low concentrations inhibits the CA secretion evoked by cholinergic stimulation (both nicotininc and muscarinic receptors) as well as by membrane depolarization from the rat adrenal medulla, but at high concentration it rather inhibits ACh-evoked CA secretion. It seems that losartan has a dual action, acting as both agonist and antagonist to nicotinic receptors of the rat adrenal medulla, which might be dependent on the concentration. It is also thought that this inhibitory effect of losartan may be mediated by blocking the influx of both $Na^+$ and $Ca^{2+}$ into the rat adrenomedullary chromaffin cells as well as by inhibiting the $Ca^{2+}$ release from the cytoplasmic calcium store, which is thought to be relevant to the $AT_1$ receptor blockade, in addition to its enhancement of the CA release.
