New inotropic agents: milrinone analogs

Abstract

1. Two new milrinone analogs, 3-acetyl-6-phenyl-2(1H)-pyridone (SF 348) and 3-acetyl-7-methyl-7,8-dihydro-2,5(1H, 6H) quinolinone (SF 349), increase the contractile activity of spontaneously beating and electrically driven atria isolated from reserpine-treated guinea-pigs. 2. Propranolol 0.1 microM drastically inhibits the contractile effect of SF 348, whereas that of SF 349 is unaffected. Preincubation of the atria with adenosine-deaminase suppresses the cardiac activity of SF 349, but does not affect that of SF 348. 3. SF 349 competitively antagonizes the negative inotropic effect induced by N6-(R-phenylisopropyl)-adenosine (R-PIA) and displaces N6-cyclohexyl[3H]-adenosine (3H-CHA) from its binding sites to A1 receptors in the guinea-pig heart. 4. The positive inotropic effect of SF 348 is largely sustained by activation of beta-adrenoceptors, whereas SF 349 acts by displacing endogenous adenosine from its inhibitory (A1) receptors in the atria.

Adrenergic Receptors: Trafficking

Adrenergic receptor trafficking is an active physiological process where adrenergic receptors are relocated from one region of the cell to another or from one type of cell to another. Discover the latest research on adrenergic receptor trafficking here.
