| hemodynamic effects of aerosol propellants. ii. pulmonary circulation in the dog. | the inhalation of trichlorofluoromethane (fc11), dichlorotetrafluoroethane (fc114) and dichlorodifluoromethane (fc12) caused a reduction in mean aortic blood pressure but only fc11 and fc114 caused a reduction in mean pulmonary arterial pressure. the primary cause of the fall is a decrease in pulmonary blood flow. when blood flow to a lobe is kept constant and the adrenergic alpha receptors are blocked by injection of phentolamine, the inhalation of fc11 caused vasodilation. in the intact circul ... | 1975 | 1873 |
| a pharmacologic analysis of preparatory mechanisms of stereotyped activity in dogs. | in dogs with elaborated rhythmic and mozaic stereotypes of secretory and motor situational conditioned reflexes specific features were revealed in the action of some neurotropic drugs (amizyl, amedine, diphacil, pediphene, chlorpromazine and sodium oxybutyrate) on preparatory (latent) conditions of excitation and inhibition, appearing in the stabilized systems of reflexes. pharmacological analysis has pointed to the predominantly cholinergic nature of preparatory and trigger mechanisms of alimen ... | 1975 | 1913 |
| serum gastrin concentration before and after parietal cell vagotomy in man and dog. | serum gastrin concentrations were measured during fasting and after feeding in duodenal ulcer patients and in dogs before and after parietal cell vagotomy (pcv). postoperatively, fasting serum gastrin concentrations increased significantly in man and insignificantly higher in dog. after feeding, serum gastrin reached higher values postoperatively in both man and dog. the percentage rise in food-stimulated serum gastrin after pcv was higher in dog than in man. | 1975 | 1957 |
| effect of bulbar acidification on basal secretion of acid and gastrin in dog. | dogs were provided with mucosal septal pouches of the stomach and of the duodenal bulb. in some dogs a drainage gastric cannula was inserted into the most dependent portion of the stomach. in dogs which were found to secrete acid spontaneously during a control period at the start of each experiment, the bulbar puches were perfused with 0.1 m hc1 for 5-120 min. bulbar acidification rapidly and profoundly reduced the basal acid output. in dogs which did not secrete acid spontaneously during the co ... | 1975 | 1971 |
| classification and biological distribution of histamine receptor sub-types. | the distribution and classification of histamine receptors in mammalian and avian tissues have been summarized in tables 1-4. it is evident that histamine receptors are present on a number of morphologically distinct cell types and the proportion of cells bearing h1- and h2-receptors varies not only with the species but also with the cell source. the pharmacological receptors mediating mepyramine-sensitive histamine responses have been defined as h1-receptors. receptors mediating mepyramine-resi ... | 1975 | 1979 |
| effect of sodium nitrate loading on electrolyte transport by the renal tubule. | effects of sodium nitrate were compared with sodium chloride loading on transport of electrolytes by the nephron. maximal levels of free water clearance/clomerular filtration rate (ch2o/gfr) averaged 8.4% with nitrate loading and 14.4% with saline loading. since ethacrynic acid and chlorothiazide exert their major natriuretic effect in the distal nephron, the increment in na ad cl reabsorbed beyond the proximal tubule. the administration of these agents resulted in an increase in fractional sodi ... | 1975 | 2016 |
| coronary vascular and myocardial responses to carotid body stimulation in the dog. | coronary vascular and myocardial responses to selective hypoxic and/or hypercapnic carotid chemoreceptor stimulation were investigated in constantly ventilated, pentobarbital or urethan-chloralose anesthetized dogs. bilaterally isolated carotid chemoreceptors were perfused with autologous blood of varying o2 and co2 tensions via an extracorporeal lung circuit. systemic gas tensions were unchanged. effects of carotid chemoreceptor stimulation on coronary vascular resistance, left ventricular dp/d ... | 1975 | 2017 |
| the influence of oxyhemoglobin affinity on tissue oxygen consumption. | in an intact animal or patient, any shift in oxyhemoglobin affinity is inevitably associated with concurrent fluctuation in numerous other determinants of oxygen delivery. for this reason, the influence of hemoglobin affinity for oxygen on tissue oxygen consumption has been incompletely evaluated. the purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of oxyhemoglobin affinity as the sole variable of oxygen delivery in an isolated perfused canine hindlimb. a membrane lung system which allowe ... | 1976 | 2111 |
| comparative evaluation of a new disposable rotating membrane oxygenator with bubble oxygenator. | the comparative in vivo performance of adult-size bubble and rotating membrane oxygenators was evaluated during closed-chest cardiopulmonary bypass for six hours in two groups of dogs. the results show that the rotating membrane oxygenator is efficient in oxygen and carbon dioxide transfer with minimal trauma to blood, while platelet destruction and hemolysis were marked with the bubble oxygenator. cerebral, cardiac, and respiratory complications were frequent with the bubble oxygenator and abse ... | 1976 | 2114 |
| effects of isoprenaline and phenylephrine on plasma potassium: role of the liver. | a dog liver preparation in situ was used. intravenous infusion of isoprenaline caused a decrease of plasma potassium levels, which was preceded, in some of the animals infused with higher doses, by a rise in plasma potassium. propranolol abolished both these effects of isoprenaline, whereas phentolamine was devoided of effects. liver potassium was not affected by isoprenaline infusions. phenylephrine caused release of potassium from the liver; this effect was blocked by phentolamine, but not by ... | 1975 | 2116 |
| therapeutic implications of gentamicin accumulation in severly diseased kidneys. | we evaluated the influence of severe disease in human kidneys (12 patients) on gentamicin sulfate accumulation characteristics in such tissue and compared the results with intrarenal tissue concentration data derived from the study of healthy dogs (54 kidneys) during variation in hydration and urinary ph. our results indicate that, in the management of pyelonephritis complicating preexisting renal disease, if the minimal inhibitory gentamicin concentration for an infecting organism is greater th ... | 1976 | 2129 |
| effects of altering monoamine metabolism on the adrenocortical response to hypoxia. | anesthetized dogs, which had been prepared with lumboadrenal vein cannulae, were intravenously infused with monoamine axidase (alphaeta), tryptophan hydroxylase (pcpa) or tyrosine hydroxylase (alphamt) inhibitors 30 min prior to exposure to 10% oxygen at ground level. these studies were designed to ascertain the role of the neurotransmitters, serotonin and norepinephrine, in the adrenocortical response to hypoxia. in normoxic animals, alphaeta decreased basal cortisol secretion and increased sys ... | 1975 | 2152 |
