چکیده

The effects of dopamine and isoprenaline on the pulmonary vasoconstrictor response to alveolar hypoxia were assessed by measuring the redistribution of blood flow between the lungs in response to unilateral hypoxia. Dose rates of dopamine 25 micrograms kg-1 min-1 and isoprenaline 0.25 micrograms kg-1 min-1 (which produced equal increments in thecontractile force of the heart in dogs) produced a similar degree of depression of they hypoxic vasoconstrictor response, whereas dopamine 2.5 micrograms kg-1 min-1 had little effect on the response PaO2 during unilateral hypoxia was inversely related to the blood flow through the hypoxic lung.

Sustained Hypoxic Pulmonary Vasoconstriction in the Isolated Perfused Rat Lung: Effect of α1-adrenergic Receptor Agonist

Background: Alveolar hypoxia induces monophasic pulmonary vasoconstriction in vivo, biphasic vasoconstriction in the isolated pulmonary artery, and controversial responses in the isolated perfused lung. Pulmonary vascular responses to sustained alveolar hypoxia have not been addressed in the isolated perfused rat lung. In this study, we investigated the effect of sustained hypoxic ventilation o...

The Interaction between Trolox and 4,4’-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2’-disulfonic Acid on Hypoxic Pulmonary Vasoconstriction in the Isolated Rabbit Lung

Background: The mechanism of hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) is still debatable. It has been proposed that reactive oxygen species (ROS) might be involved in HPV. However, there is no special transporter for superoxide anion in the cell membrane and it may release from the cells via anion exchanger. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the interaction of ROS and anion ex...

Background: Some respiratory diseases may induce alveolar hypoxia thereby hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV). However, the mechanisms of this physiologic phenomenon are not fully understood. This study was the first to investigate the role of anion exchanger in sustained HPV.Methods: Experiments were performed in the isolated perfused rabbit lung. After preparation, the lungs were divided...

Reduction of hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction during diethyl ether anaesthesia in the dog.

The activity of the pulmonary vasoconstrictor response to alveolar hypoxia was assessed by measuring the redistribution of pulmonary blood flow in response to the ventilation of one lung with nitrogen. The vasoconstrictor response was depressed during the administration of 5% diethyl ether but returned when the ether was withdrawn. It is suggested that depression of the hypoxic vasoconstrictor ...

The Effect of Chronic Inflammation on Knee Joint Vascular β-adrenoceptors in Rabbit

It has been shown that inflammation reduces the effectiveness of sympathetic nerves in the regulation of knee joint blood flow, and the joint vascular- ß adrenoceptors are changed due to acute inflammation from a majority of ß-1 to an equality of ß-1 and ß-2 receptors.. To investigate the role of sympathetic nerves in nerve induced vasoconstriction and changes in joint vascular ß-adrenoceptors ...
