1. Antagonistic properties of OPC-28326 ([4-(N-methyl-2-phenylethylamino)-1-(3,5-dimethyl-4-propionyl-aminobenzoyl)] piperidine hydrochloride monohydrate), a selective peripheral vasodilator, were investigated by analysing the data from functional studies in various tissues from the rat and binding studies of the drug to alpha(2)-adrenoceptor subtypes. 2. Using a

In a dialysis procedure not requiring perfusate addition of acetylcholinesterase inhibitors to "boost" basal levels of acetylcholine (ACh), the influence of the antiparkinson agent piribedil upon levels of ACh in frontal cortex and dorsal hippocampus of freely moving rats was
Two experiments were performed to evaluate the effects of sildenafil on spontaneous or dopamine agonist-induced behaviour in male rats. Data obtained in experiment 1 show that oral administration of the drug, at 1 mg/kg, significantly increased the occurrence of penile
Among the various neurotransmitter systems implicated in the mechanism of action of ascorbic acid (vitamin C), the relationship between the dopaminergic system and ascorbic acid is not particularly clear. Ascorbic acid is speculated to have an antagonistic effect on dopaminergic

The effect of alpha2-selective adrenoreceptor activation on nasal cavity dimension in an experimental model of congestion has not been defined. Presently, we used acoustic rhinometry to evaluate the decongestant activity of BHT-920, a selective alpha2-adrenergic agonist against nasal congestion produced
