Salbutamol-Induced Desensitization and Attempts to Resensitize In Vitro

author

  • Mohammed Sultan Mohiddin Sajid
Abstract:

The study was carried out to desensitize spontaneously active isolated chick rectum with salbutamol in log doses starting from 100 nanogram and resensitize with various drugs as a result to revive the desensitized tissue and respond to Salbutamol. The tissue response after desensitization to alpha, beta adrenergic and muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonists was isotonically recorded for 10 minutes using thermostatically-controlled organ bath with aeration. The results with prazosin showed that the tissue recovered from desensitization and exhibited spontaneous motility and responded to salbutamol faster.

Induced desensitization.

Viewing of annuli modulated in color in a sawtooth fashion in time results in differential threshold elevations for the detection of color changes of inscribed disks. The elevations are of nearly the same magnitude as those resulting from viewing modulated disks. However, the differential effects on thresholds for complimentary colors are reversed. The differential effects, thus, are correlated...

Desensitization to substance P-induced vasodilation in vitro is not shared by endogenous tachykinin neurokinin A.

Two mammalian tachykinins, substance P (SP) and neurokinin A (NKA), were measured by radioimmunoassay in canine cephalic blood vessels and tested for their vasoactivity in vitro. Levels of immunoreactive SP were approximately 2-3 times greater than those of immunoreactive NKA in common carotid, basilar, and middle cerebral arteries. Both endogenous tachykinins relaxed precontracted segments of ...

Responses of Almond Genotypes to Osmotic Stress Induced In Vitro

Drought is one of the major limitations to crop production worldwide. This study was conducted to evaluate the response of five almond genotypes and peach×almond hybrid GF to drought stress in vitro, and screening drought tolerance. Explants subjected to polyethylene glycol osmotic stress ( , , and . % WV) on the MS medium. Increasing PEG level in the medium significantly reduced fresh weight a...

Salbutamol inhibits metabisulphite-induced bronchoconstriction.

The effect of salbutamol on bronchoconstriction induced by inhaled sodium metabisulphite has been studied in 12 atopic subjects. Salbutamol (200 micrograms, 3.5 x 10(-7) M) and matched placebo were administered by identical metered dose inhaler 15 min before a dose-response to sodium metabisulphite (1.25-100 mg ml-1) was performed. Geometric mean provocative dose of metabisulphite causing a 35%...

In vitro desensitization of isolated nephron segments to vasopressin.

Recent studies have demonstrated that in vivo administration of 1-deamino-8-D-arginine-vasopressin, an analog of arginine-8-vasopressin, induces homologous desensitization to vasopressin in the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle. Desensitization has been documented by a decreased physiological response to vasopressin in vivo and by a reduced cAMP accumulation in the cortical thick ascend...
