Abstract: | Concentrations of droperidol which caused a shift to the rightof the dose-response curve to nor-adrenaline in the pulmonaryartery and the saphenous vein of the dog did not affect myogenicactivation by K+; they did not inhibit spontaneous activityof portal-mesenteric veins. Droperidol inhibited the contractileresponse to nerve stimulation, but did not affect the evokedrelease of 3H-noradrenaline. These experiments indicate thatthe vasodilator properties of smaller doses of droperidol area result of its ability to block alpha-adrenergic receptors. *Present address: Department of Anesthesiology, Mayo Clinic,Rochester, Minnesota, U.S.A. |
