Intravenous Infusion of RMP-7 Increases Ocular Uptake of Ganciclovir

Purpose. The ability of intravenous (i.v.) infusions of the bradykinin agonist, RMP-7, to permeabilize the blood-ocular barriers (BOB) to the antiviral agent ganciclovir was investigated in guinea-pigs. Methods. Different i.v. dosing regimens included pre-treatment with RMP-7 (0.2 g/kg/min for 5 min) followed by either [³H]-ganciclovir (1 Ci/0.2 ml/min) alone, and/or co-infusion with RMP-7 and [³H]-ganciclovir. At specific times the animals were sacrificed, their eyes removed, and the retina and lens epithelium dissected and analyzed for the amount of radioactivity. Results. Using the ratio of tissue vs. integrated plasma radioactivity concentration, a two-fold increase in ganciclovir steady-state levels were observed in the retina as well as lens epithelium following RMP-7 pretreatment. Peak uptake effects were achieved with a 4.5 min ganciclovir infusion. Neither longer infusions of ganciclovir alone, nor co-infusions of RMP-7 and ganciclovir further enhanced the uptake effects. Kinetic analysis indicated that RMP-7 increased the rate of ganciclovir entry (K _IN) in studied ocular tissues, while the efflux of drug (K _OUT) was not affected by this treatment. Finally, ganciclovir retina:plasma ratios elevated by RMP-7 pre-treatment, remained higher than control ratios within 60 min following cessation of 4.5 min ganciclovir infusion. Conclusions. These data offer further evidence that BOB and in particular the blood-retinal barrier can be permeabilized via bradykinin receptor stimulation. As the i.v. infusions of RMP-7 enhanced the retinal uptake of ganciclovir, it is suggested that a combination of RMP-7 and ganciclovir may provide a novel approach for treating cytomegalo-virus retinis.     

Exogenous insulin-like growth factor II enhances post-infarction regional myocardial function in swine

OBJECTIVES: Insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) promotes cardiac myocytegrowth and contractility in vitro. This study was designed toinvestigate the effect of exogenous IGF-II on regional myocardialfun ction at the area of infarct in the pig. METHODS: Myocardial infarction was induced in 12 female anoesthetizedpigs by affigel blue beads, embolizing microvessels of the leftanterior descending coronary artery distribution. In the experimentalgroup (n=6), IGF-II (0.12 µg. kg^–1 in two animalsand 0.6 µg. kg^–1 in four) was incorporated intothe beads and delivered by them to the infarct area. Myocardialfunction was followed echocardiographically, and the excisedheart was analysed immunohistochemically and histopathologically. RESULTS: Myocardial function in injured zones, inversely related to anechocardiographic segmental wall motion score (mean ±SEM), was similar between the two groups at baseline, but at4 weeks post-infarction was significantly (P=0.008) reducedin the control group (0.58± 0.38 vs 3.42 ± 0.84),in contrast to nearly baseline values in the experimental group(0.58 ± 0.33 vs 1.17 ± 0.42, P=0.41). Cardiacperformance in injured segments was sign better after myocardialinjury in the experimental group (P=0.04). Tissue samples fromboth groups (4 weeks post-infarction), stained with haematoxylinand eosin demonstrated pen-infarct myocyte hypertrophy, correspondingto regions selectively stained by an antibody for CD56, whichhighlights growing cardiac myocytes. By image analysis semi-quantification,staining for CD56 was significantly (P=0.04) higher in the peri-infarctregion of the experimental group, as compared with controls(106.5 ± 2.8 vs 92 ± 4.4 gray level units). Microvesselsstained for von-Willebrand factor were similar in nwnber inboth groups (P=0.8), as were mesenchymal cells stained for vimentin(P=0.7). CONCLUSIONS: Exogenous IGF-II, delivered to the infarct area amelioratesregional cardiac function in the pig, perhaps by inducing peri-infarctmyocyte growth.     

Propagation of impulses in the guinea-pig ureter and its blockade by calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)

The guinea-pig ureter was placed in a three-compartment organ bath to enable the application of electrical stimuli or drugs to its renal end (R site), the middle region (M-site) or the bladder end (B-site) while recording mechanical activity at the R- and B-sites. All experiments were performed in ureters pre-exposed to capsaicin (10 M for 15 min) to prevent the release of sensory neuropeptides from afferent nerves. Electrical field stimulation (EFS, 5–25 ms pulse width, 20 V) produced a phasic contraction at the site of stimulation (direct response to EFS) which propagated to the other end of the ureter. Section of the ureter at the M-site abolished the propagated response to EFS; after section, EFS applied at the M-site induced a phasic contraction at both the R-and B-sites. Likewise, the application of KCl at the M-site produced phasic contractions at both the R- and B-sites. Tetrodotoxin (1 M), nifedipine (1 M) or Bay K 8644 (1 M) applied at the M-site had no influence on the direct or propagated responses to EFS; nifedipine (10 M) applied at the M-site abolished the propagated responses without affecting the direct responses to EFS. Bay K 8644 (1 M) applied at the R-site produced a marked enhancement of the direct response (EFS applied at R-site) while having no effect on the amplitude of the propagated response to EFS. Nifedipine (1 M), applied at the R-site, produced a graded, time-dependent, inhibition of the direct response (EFS applied at R-site) and eventually suppressed it; the propagated response was unaffected until suppression of the direct response, when an allor-none blockade of the propagated response was observed. When applied at the B-site (EFS at Rsite), 1 M nifedipine produced a graded, time-dependent, inhibition of the propagated response and eventually suppressed it, without affecting the direct response to EFS. For further pharmacological analysis of drug action on the propagated activity, EFS was applied at the R-site and drugs were applied at the M-site. Human CGRP (CGRP, 0.1 M) or cromakalim (1-3 M) were applied in superfusion at the M-site in the absence or presence of glibenclamide (1 M). Neither drug affected the direct response to EFS; both CGRP and cromakalim produced a reversible suppression of the propagated response. Glibenclamide suppressed the inhibitory activity of 1 M cromakalim and partly antagonized the effect of CGRP; the blockade by glibenclamide was partly overcome by 3 M cromakalim. The present findings are consistent with the idea that propagation of excitation occurs because of the spread of electrical activity between smooth muscle cells of the ureter and that conduction of impulses is independent of local changes in contractility. The present results also demonstrate that CGRP induced a conduction block along the ureter and that this effect involves activation of glibenclamide-sensitive K channels. Therefore, a local release of CGRP in response to pathophysiological stimuli is, in principle, capable of suppressing ureteral peristalsis and antiperistalsis.
