The purpose of this study was to assess the vascular changes after thermophysical therapies using ice pack and ultrasound, investgate the mechanism of peripheral vasodilation by sympathetic nerve, and to observe the effects of the ergotamine to the thermophysical therapy. The author had used 16 healthy rabbits which were divided into 2 groups : with and without administration of ergotamine. Experimental animals were sacrificed 5, 10, 20 minutes after experiment, and were examined with gross and stereoscope of resin casting blood vessel models. The results were as follows : 1. Vasodilation was not remarkably found in the group with administration of egrotamine after thermophysical therapy. 2. Vasodilation was remarkably found in the group without administration of ergotamine after thermophysical therapy. 3. Vasodilation was increased in the group without administration of ergotamine, but not remarkably found in the group with administration of ergotamine in lapse of time 4. Thermophysical therapy was most effective to arterioles. Our data suggest that the dilation of peripheral blood vessels from thermophysical therapy was controlled by sympathetic nerve, because the blood vessels did not changed after administration of ergotamines which was a sympathetic nerve blocker.

Adrenergic receptors are now classified into alpha type and beta type These adrenergic receptors are distributed in various tissue in different patterns. Therefore, the adrenergic response of a certain tissue may be different from those of the other tissues, and such differences may exist among various species of animals. In this paper, the authors attempt to reevaluate the effect of epinephrine on the isolated atria, aortic strips, and vas deferenses of rabbits preincubated with alpha receptor blockades (ergotamine and dibenamine) and beta receptor blockades (propranolol and dichloroisoproterenol) in Locke-Ringer bathing medium. The results obtained were summarized as follows; 1) The dose dependent responses of isolated atria to epinephrine were significantly inhibited by propranolol and dichloroisoproterenol, and slightly inhibited by dibenamine, but not affected by ergotamine. 2) The dose dependent responses of excised aortic strips to epinephrine were significantly inhibited by ergotamine and dibenamine, but the responses were slightly potentiated by propranolol, and significantly by dichloroisoproterenol. 3) The dose dependent responses of isolated vas deferenses to epinephrine were significantly inhibited by ergotamine and dibenamine, but slightly potentiated by propranolol and dichloroisoproterenol.

Recent findings that agroclavine strongly inhibits: lactation and that ergocornine and ergonovine induce regression or inhibition of pituitary tumor growth in rats revealed new pharmacological activities in addition to the well-known activities of ergot alkaloids. Clavicipitic acid, isochanoclavine (I) and chanoclavine (II) are newly isolated alkaloids. It was already established that tryptophan, mevalonic acid and methionine are biosynthetic precursors of ergoline, a basic structure of the alkaloids, which is formed via $4-({\gamma},{\gamma}-dimethylallyl)-tryptophan$, mediated by dimethylallylpyrophosphate: tryptophan dimethylallyl transferase. Chanoclavine-I appears to be an intermediate to agroclavine which is converted to elymoclavine. Agroclavine and elymoclavine were also found to be hydroxylated by peroxidase to setoclavine and penniclavine, respectively. Elymoclavine is converted to ergotamine and lysergic acid ${\alpha}-hydroxyethylamide$, respectively. Pyruvate and alanine were found to be incorporated into the two-carbon unit of the ${\alpha}-hydroxyethyl$ moiety of the latter. Lysergylalanine is converted to ergometrine, but not to lysergic acid ${\alpha}-hydroxyethylamide$.

A 39-year-old male presented with severe pain in right posterior mandibular teeth and temporal area. Initially, the pain in the mandibular teeth was moderate, but the concomitant headache was unbearably severe. His medical history was non-contributory. The clinical and radiographic examination failed to reveal any pathology in the region. There was no tenderness to palpation in the temporalis and masseter muscles or temporomandibular joints. The clinical impression was migraine. The pain in the teeth and headache were aborted using ergotamine tartrate and sumatriptan succinate. Atenolol prevented further pain, while amitriptyline and imipramine had no effect. Migraine can present as non-odontogenic pain in the mandibular teeth, although not as frequently as in the maxillary teeth. A correct diagnosis is essential to avoid unnecessary dental treatments and to manage pain effectively. Clinicians should be able to identify migraine with non-odontogenic dental pain and establish a proper diagnosis through a comprehensive evaluation.

To evaluate the adrenergic receptors for glycogenolytic responses to catecholamine, the blood glucose level, liver glycogen content and muscle glycogen level in rats were studied with treatment of epinephrine, norepinephrine and isoproterenol. In addition, to study the possibility of interconversion of adrenergic receptors, the effects of catecholamines in feeding animal were compared with those in fasting animal. The results are summarized as follow; 1) Epinephrine and norepinephine showed dose dependent increase of blood glucose level but the effect of isproterenol was not significant. 2) The prandial states of animal did not influence on effects of catecholamines on blood glucose level. 3) Liver glycogen contents were lowered by epinephrine or by norepinephrins but effect of isoproterenol was not significant. 4) Glycogen content of skeletal muscle was significantly lowered by isoproterenol and. epinephrine shifted the dose-response curve to right, but the effect of norepinephrine was not significant. 5) The effects of epinephrine and norepinephrine on blood glucose were significantly blocked by ergotamine but not by propranolol. These results indicate that the glycogenolytic response to adrenergic agents in rat is mediated by an alpha-receptor in liver and by a beta-receptor in skeletal muscle.

1. In the tortoise, Amyda japonica, a cold-blooded animal readily available in this country, the role of catecholamines in the regulation of free fatty acids(FFA) metabolism was investigated in both in vivo and in vitro studies. 2. Norepinephrine elevated both FFA and glucose levels in plasma. 3. When $50{\mu}g/kg$ of Epinephrine, Norepinephrine and Isopropylarterenol were administered intravenously, the relative effectiveness of mobilizing FFA was in the descending order of potency-Epinephrine, Norepinephrine and Isopropylarterenol. 4. In order to exclude the 'tonic influence of the endogenous catecholamines', reserpine was given to some animals. Two days after the reserpine-treatment, glucose showed a significant increase over the solely vehicle treated controls, FFA but an insignificant one. Excised auricles from those animals showed a diminished response to tyramine. Seven days after the treatment, however, when the depletion of catecholamines from the tissue stores seemed to be complete, judged from the absence of the response of isolated auricles to tyramine, both FFA and glucose levels were definitely lowered. 5. In in vitro experiments Epinephrine enhanced the FFA-release from the adipose tissue. The effect increased proportionately with the concentration until a maximal effect was attained at a concentration of 1x $10^5$ g/ml. 6. The order of potency in releasing FFA from adipose tissue in vitro was the same as in vitro, i.e., Epinephrine, Norepinephrine and Isopropylarterenol, but the differences were much less marked. 7. Ergotamine exerted no lipolytic action, but inhibited the lipolytic effect ef Epinephrine significantly. 8. Nethalide showed a slight lipolytic effect per se but inhibited the Epinephrine-induced lipolysis significantly. 9. Catecholamines play an important role in regulating FFA metabolism in the cold-blooded animal, just as in the warm-blooded animals, and the tortoise, Amyda japonica, may be used in the studies of fat metabolism as well as the rat.

두통은 인류의 가장 흔한 호소 중의 하나로 임상에서 흔히 보는 장애이다. 두통은 뇌막염, 뇌출혈, 또는 뇌종양과 같은 다른 질환의 증상일수 있으나, 또한 편두통이나 군발두통 등과 같은 질병 자체로 표현된다. 일차적으로 두통 장애의 역학이나 국제 두통학회의 진단기준을 이해하고 흔치 않으나 심각한 이차적인 두통장애와 감별에 관심을 둬야 한다. 환자가 일차 두통장애의 기준에 맞으면 신경학적 진단검사의 보충이 없어도 치료를 시작한다. 두통 유형, 표현 양상, 동통기간과 강도 등에 따라 진통소염제나 혼합진통제, 혈관작용의 항편두통 약물 또는 신경이완제나 corticosteroid등을 선택한다. 편두통의 빈도와 강도에 따라 예방치료가 보통 4~6개월간 조절한다. 긴장형 두통은 발작성과 만성두통으로 구분되나 치료적으로는 급성완화와 예방치료로 시도된다. 많은 만성매일두통 환자들이 진통제나 ergotamine을 과용하고 있으며 그들의 의존성과 내재된 갈등조절, 수면장애, 우울등으로 과용된 약물의 제한이 쉽지 않다. 치료의 첫단계는 약물을 끊고 조심스럽게 대치요법을 시행한다.
