Hexametazidine possesses a concentration-dependent negative inotropic effect (IC_(50)=81.8±16.9μmol/L).The effect of hexametazidine(30.8μmol/L)was antago- nized completely by increasing the concentration of Ca^(2+)from 1.8 to 5.4mmol/L. Hexametazidine(30.8μmol/L)increased the threshold concentration of adrenaline for inducing the automaticity of the muscles from 3.95±1.80 to 6.67±4.84μmol/L (P<0.05).It prolonged the functional refractory period from 218±14 to 254±20ms (P<0.05)at the concentration of 61.6μmol/L.Hexametazidine(6.2μmol/L)antago- nized the positive inotropic effect of isoprenaline competitively and of histamine non-competitively(pA 2 and pD2′ values were 5.45 and 4.13, respectively).展开更多

Methods: c-fos oncogene immunohistochemical technique (ABC method) was employed. Results: When halothane concentration was 0.75%,1.5%or2.0%, most of the Fos-like immunore- active neurons (FLNs) appeared in telencephalon, diencephalon and brain stem, including cerebral cortex, amygaloid nucleus, accumbens nucleus, lateral keptal nucleus. bed nucleus of the stria terminalis, field CA1 of Ammon’s horn, islands of Calleja, paraventricular thalamic nucleus, central medial thalamic nucleus, reuniens thalamic nucleus, rhomboid thalamic nucleus. ventral posterolateral thalamic nucleus, paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus(ventral part). periventricular hypothalamic nucleus, median preoptic nucleus, supraoptic nucleus, suprachiasmatic nucleus. medial and lateral habenular nucleus. midbrain periaqueductal gray and Edinger-Westphal nucleus.In the present stude. we have also found that the number of FLN registered stable increase along with the increaseof the concentration of halothane. Conclusion: It has been indicated that FLNs participate in the process ofhalothane anesthesia. which should necessitate and pave the way for a further study of the patterns of linkage andthe mechanism of interaction between functional nuclei.展开更多
