To investigate a possible functional interaction between 5-HT1B and 5-HT1A or 5-HT2 receptors we studied the effects of 5-HT1A selective agonists 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) and gepirone, of a 5-HT1A/5-HT2 agonist 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeODMT) and of a putative 5-HT2 agonist (+/-)1-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl)-2-amino-propane (+/- DOI) on the 5-HT1B receptor-mediated hypothermia induced by m-trifluoromethylphenylpiperazine (TFMPP) (25 mg/kg) or m-chlorophenylpiperazine (m-CPP) (20 mg/kg) in mice. 8-OH-DPAT (1.25-5 mg/kg), gepirone (1.25-5 mg/kg), 5-MeODMT (2-8 mg/kg) and (+/-)DOI (0.5-2 mg/kg) reduced dose-dependently the TFMPP- or m-CPP-induced hypothermia. At the same time 8-OH-DPAT (2.5 and 5 mg/kg, but not 1.25 mg/kg) and gepirone (1.25-5 mg/kg) themselves decreased the body temperature in mice, while 5-MeODMT (2-8 mg/kg) and (+/-)DOI (0.5-2 mg/kg) did not affect it. The present results suggest that a functional interaction exists between 5-HT1B and 5-HT1A or 5-HT2 receptors.

Isolated critical ostial stenosis of the left main coronary artery (LMCA) without narrowing in the distal parts of coronary vessels is rather rare cause of angina. It was observed in 7 our patients: 5F and 2M aged 42-55 yrs (mean 47.5). Five of them were in unstable condition. In all of them a direct surgical angioplasty of the LMCA was performed. Cardiopulmonary bypass with moderate hypothermia were used in all patients. The LMCA was approached from behind. A curved incision was made into the right lateral aortic wall toward the LMCA. Care was taken to stay away from the commissure between the noncoronary and the left coronary cusp. The posterior aspect of the LMCA was incised across the stenosis and prolonged through bifurcation. A venous onlay patch was used to enlarge not only the LMCA but also the adjacent 2 cm of aortic incision, so as to give the LMCA ostium a funnel shape, which favors a homogeneous blood flow. The mean aortic cross clamping time was 46 min. The patients were easily weaned from cardiopulmonary bypass. The early and late results are good--all patients were discharged from the hospital free of symptoms. In 6 patients a perfect patency of the left main stem was documented during control coronarography. In our opinion direct surgical angioplasty of LMCA is better then the conventional surgical treatment because normal geometry of LMCA ostium and normal blood flow can be restored using this method.

Six met-enkephalin derivatives substituted in position 4 with D-4-chlorophenylalanine or D-4-fluorophenylalanine were obtained. Their antinociceptive activity was determined after icv administration to rats by tail immersion test. Cataleptic activity and the influence of the analogs obtained on the body temperature were also estimated. All compounds exerted analgesic activity, which was decreased significantly by naloxone. Almost all compounds appeared cataleptic, some of them caused hypothermia.

Captopril, an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor, was evaluated for a potential antidepressive activity in several animal models. The drug administered in doses of 3-30 mg/kg ip neither affected the reserpine- or apomorphine-induced hypothermia in mice nor reduced the immobility time in the forces swimming test in mice and rats. Moreover, captopril administered repeatedly (10 mg/kg ip, twice daily for 14 days) neither changed the density or affinity of cortical beta-adrenoceptors nor modified the nomifensine-induced locomotor hyperactivity in rats. These results suggest that captopril has no antidepressant-like activity in animal models.

Some central effects of Ro 19-6327--a new MAO-B inhibitor--were studied in mice and rats. Given in low doses (1 or 3 mg/kg) Ro 19-6327 did not affect the locomotor activity of mice but its high dose (10 mg/kg) increased the activity. In rats Ro 19-6327 inhibited the locomotor activity but the effect was not dose dependent and not always significant. Ro 19-6327 did not change the locomotor activity in mice induced by L-DOPA (plus benserazide--an inhibitor of peripheral decarboxylase). The drug suppressed the reserpine-induced hypothermia and ptosis in mice and partly counteracted the apomorphine-induced hypothermia. It markedly enhanced (10 mg/kg) the amphetamine-induced stereotypy in rats. L-5-Hydroxytryptophan (L-5-HTP)-induced head twitch response was unchanged by Ro 19-6327. The drug given three times was inactive in forced swimming test. Repeated treatment with Ro 19-6327 (twice daily for 14 days) produced the enhancement of (+)-amphetamine- and nomifensine-induced hyperactivity in rats. Unlike a number of antidepressants, Ro 19-6327 did not potentiate the clonidine aggressiveness in mice, but--in contrast--inhibited it. The results suggest that Ro 19-6327 given repeatedly produces no changes in the responsiveness of the alpha-adrenergic system (in references to effects mediated by alpha 1-adrenoceptors). Adaptive changes in dopamine system are doubtful.

In reactions of 1-phenyl-7-methyl-4-oxo-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimido[ 4,5-d]pyrimidin e (1) with 1-(3-chloropropyl)-4-methyl(phenyl, 3-chlorophenyl, 2-pyrimidynyl, 2-thiazolyl)piperazines (5), mixtures of isomeric N- and S-substituted derivatives of compound 1 (3 and 4) were obtained. Isomers were separated by fractional crystallization. The structure of novel compounds 3 and 4 was confirmed by elemental and spectral analyses. In pharmacological screening compounds 3b and 4b displayed rather strong analgesic action, inhibited amphetamine hyperactivity and abolished apomorphine stereotypy. Compounds 3e,3d and 4e attenuated m-chlorophenylpiperazine-induced hypothermia.

The effect of combined treatment with doxepin and ethanol was tested in mice, rats and rabbits. Doxepin was given in a single dose (5 or 10 mg/kg) or chronically (10 mg/kg/d for 21 days). Doxepin did not affect ethanol toxicity and ethanol-induced impairment of rota-rod performance, but potentiated ethanol-induced hypothermia (only acutely) and prolonged ethanol-induced sleep in mice. Given acutely it potentiated the inhibitory effect of ethanol on locomotor activity in mice, while given chronically it counteracted the ethanol-induced sedation. Doxepin did not interfere with ethanol-induced EEG effects in rabbits, and prevented the development of tolerance to hypothermic, but not to hypnotic effects of ethanol in rats. In general, the interference of doxepin with ethanol was more pronounced after single doses of the drug than after chronic treatment.

The cold stress induced in rabbits by lowering their body temperature by 3 degrees C resulted in neutrophilia and a decrease in number of phagocytes and phagocytized bacteria. The stress did not affect the number of lymphocytes and the ability of forming E rosettes by T lymphocytes, but depressed the formation of EAC rosettes by B lymphocytes. This inhibition of neutrophil activity was antagonized completely by acetylsalicylic acid, and substantially by mefenamic acid and indomethacin administered, in doses inhibiting pyrogen-induced fever, either 2.5 h before or 1.5 h after the hypothermia. The drugs did not antagonize the depression of the ability of formation of EAC rosettes.

There were presented operative technique and clinical results of extracorporeal circulation (ECG) with patients lungs utilization, instead of routinely applied artificial blood oxygenators. Auto-oxygenation method was applied in 12 patients with coronary artery disease treated by coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Operative procedure differs from the traditional one in two additional cannulations of pulmonary artery and left atrium. Two peristaltic pumps and incorporated in circulation blood reservoirs. Polystan 892910 allows for temporary substitution of cardiac function without lung disconnection. Lungs functioning during surgery do not render it difficult. Hypothermia enables to decrease respiration rate and tidal volume with no effect on physiological blood oxygenation and CO2 exhalation. Method assessment was based on results comparison with those obtained in patients treated by traditional method using bubble oxygenators-Venotherm 5,000. PO2, PCO2, platelets number and hemolysis extent were assessed before, in 10, 30, 60 min of ECG and just after it. Platelets activity and influence of the method on hemostatic disorders were evaluated based on clotting time by Ivy. Additionally hemostatic disorders were assessed by thoracic blood drainage volume calculated from the moment of protamine administration to drainage tubes withdrawal in average 18 hours after surgery. Laboratory parameters characteristically changing during ECG were also estimated. It was proved, that auto-oxygenation diminished negative effects of ECG. Increased platelets number, faster normalization of clotting time and decreased postoperative drainage were stated in the auto-oxygenation group. Postoperative drainage in this group was 260 +/- 60 ml in comparison with 800 +/- 100 ml of the control group. Authors consider that pulmonary function remaining during ECG positively affects on postoperative hemostasis. This method can be helpful in surgical management of coronary artery disease, especially in patients with primary coagulation disorders.
