    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé L'examen en olfactomètre a porté sur les réactions face à d'autres femelles de la même espèce, de femelles vierges ou ayant copulé d'Heliothis armigera Hübner et H. zea Boddie. Le lot comprenait 8 femelles, vierges ou ayant copulé en présence d'une femelle vierge ou ayant copulé. Les 4 combinaisons possibles de femelles vierges et de femelles ayant copulé ont été examinées avec 12 répétitions pour chaque espèce. Un extrait de l'extrémité de l'abdomen de femelles vierges d'une espèce a été présenté aux femelles de l'autre espèce pour examiner les possibilités de réactions interspécifiques aux phéromones. Pour chaque espèce, les réactions interspécifiques de répulsion entre femelles ont été hautement significatives par rapport aux témoins, à l'exception toutefois des réactions de femelle ayant copulé face à des femelles ayant elles aussi copulé. Les répulsions moyennes chez H. armigera et H. zea pour les 8 femelles de chaque expérience ont été: a) vierges en présence d'une vierge: 7,33 et 7,66; b) vierges en présence d'une femelles ayant copulé: 5,76 et 5,58; c) femelles ayant copulé en présence d'une vierge: 4,67 et 4,83. Les différences sont hautement significatives entre chaque paire de moyennes et entre chaque paire et le lot témoin; 3,17; 3,17; 3,42; 4,00 pour H. armigera; 3,17; 3,50; 2,83 et 3,75 pour H. zea. Les femelles vierges des deux espèces, H. armigera et H. zea ont présenté une réaction de répulsion en présence d'un extrait de l'abdomen de l'autre espèce; les répulsions moyennes étant respectivement 5,53 et 5,33 contre 3,83 et 3,58 pour le lot trémoin. On peut en conclure que ces répulsions doivent entraîner une tendance à la répartition uniforme.
    Notes: Abstract An olfactometer was used to determine the effect of pheromones released by females of the bollworms Heliothis armigera (Hübner) and H. zea (Boddie) on females of the same species. Four combinations of virgin and mated females were tested for repellency of one to the other. Evidence is presented that females of the two bollworms were repelled by females of the same species. In addition, extracts of virgin female abdomens of each species repelled virgin females of the other species.

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary Tolamolol was administered in a “double-blind” study to fifteen hypertensive patients by dose-titration against arterial blood pressure. Mean steady-state plasma tolamolol concentrations (Css) were determined for each patient from the area under the plasma concentration — time curve during a dosage interval whilst patients were receiving optimal tolamolol doses. No significant correlation was observed between daily tolamolol dose and Css; the relationship between fall in lying mean arterial pressure and Css also failed to reach conventional levels of statistical significance, but Css was observed to be correlated with the fall in standing pressure. The results suggest that plasma concentrations in excess of 200 ng/ml may be required to achieve an effective hypotensive response with the drug.

    Once daily indapamide in the treatment of the elderly and young hypertensive (1984)

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary Nine elderly and 11 young hypertensives underwent continuous ambulatory monitoring of blood pressure (BP), assessment of cardiovascular reflexes and M-mode echocardiography as hospital in-patients prior to treatment with once-daily indapamide (2.5 mg). They were followed as out-patients for 4 months during which time casual BP was measured at monthly intervals. The patients were then readmitted to hospital and studied using the same protocol under similar standardised conditions. The results showed that indapamide reduced casual and ambulatory BP in both young and elderly although the most marked effect was seen on systolic BP. Assessment of cardiovascular reflexes indicates that at least part of the hypotensive action of indapamide is due to a diuretic effect. Treatment with indapamide has comparable results on both young and elderly.

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary The efficacy and toxicity of tolamolol and methyldopa in hypertensive patients has been compared by a dose-titrated, double-blind, cross-over study. Thirteen patients completed the trial. Within the dose ranges investigated (tolamolol — 300 mg/day — 900 mg/day; methyldopa — 750 mg/day — 2250 mg/day) both drugs produced significant falls in laying and standing, systolic and diastolic blood pressures. Although the hypotensive effects of methyldopa were more marked than tolamolol, these only achieved conventional (P〈0.05) levels of significance for lying blood pressure. There were no objective changes in haematological or biochemical indices during treatment with either drug, but patients complained of tiredness, weak limbs and mouth dryness significantly more during methyldopa treatment, than during either placebo or tolamolol therapy.

    Notes: Abstract Oncocnemis chandleri, O. cibalis, andO. mackiei were attracted to chemically baited traps in the field. In all three cases, (5E,7Z)-dodecadienyl acetate was a key component for attraction. Attraction ofO. chandleri to traps baited with the (5E,7Z)-dodecadienyl acetate was inhibited by addition of (Z)-7-dodecenyl acetate.O. cibalis required both (5E,7Z)-dodecadienyl acetate and (Z)-7-dodecenyl acetate for attraction. Electroantennogram responses for the three species are also reported.

    Plasma concentration of α-methyldopa and sulphate conjugate after oral administration of methyldopa and intravenous administration of methyldopa and methyldopa hydrochloride ethyl ester (1975)
    Springer
    European journal of clinical pharmacology 8 (1975), S. 381-386

    ISSN: 1432-1041
    Keywords: α-methyldopa ; plasma concentration ; hypertension ; sulphate conjugation
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary The plasma concentrations of free α-methyldopa and methyldopa sulphate conjugate were measured in 7 hypertensive patients with normal renal function following α-methyldopa (1 g) orally. Five of these patients subsequently received α-methyldopa ethyl ester (250 mg) (methyldopate) intravenously and two further patients received 250 mg of α-methyldopa intravenously. After oral administration a large amount of total plasma α-methyldopa was present as sulphate conjugate. There were wide interindividual differences in the ratio of free: conjugated α-methyldopa in plasma (ratio at 4 hours ranged from 3.73 – 0.83) suggesting that individual differences in the extent of sulphate conjugation may occur. There was no close correlation between the degree of conjugation and the fall in arterial pressure. At all time intervals examined, plasma concentrations were higher following intravenous α-methyldopa than α-methyldopate. The plasma concentration of α-methyldopa (free and esterified) 60 minutes after i.v. α-methyldopate was 1.7±0.3 µg/ml wile at the same time after the same dose of methyldopa by the same route the mean concentration was 5.9 µg/ml. Although small amounts of sulphate conjugate were detected after i.v. α-methyldopate, insignificant quantities of conjugate were found after i.v. α-methyldopa. The average fall in mean arterial pressure was 27 mm Hg following i.v. α-methyldopa but only 2.7 mm Hg following α-methyldopate. These results suggest that sulphate conjugation of α-methyldopa occurs in the gastrointestinal tract during absorption. Hydrolysis of α-methyldopa ethyl ester does not appear to be instantaneous and pharmacokinetic differences between the ester and free α-methyldopa have been demonstrated.

    Notes: Summary Lumbar cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentrations of the major metabolites of noradrenaline (4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl glycol, HMPG), serotonin (5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid) and dopamine (homovanillic acid) were measured before and during the administration of clonidine or alprenolol to hypertensive patients. The noradrenaline receptor stimulant clonidine significantly decreased the CSF level of HMPG, but there was no consistent change in the concentration of serotonin or dopamine metabolites. Patients on alprenolol showed no change in the levels of these metabolites in CSF.

    Relationship between the antihypertensive effect and steady-state plasma concentration of nifedipine given alone or in combination with a beta-adrenoceptor blocking agent (1980)
    Springer

    Keywords: hypertension ; nifedipine ; beta-adrenoceptor blockade ; hypotensive action ; adverse effects ; combination therapy

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary The antihypertensive effect of nifedipine (10–20 mg t.i.d.) given alone, or in combination with a beta-adrenoceptor blocking drug, was related to the observed plasma concentration during one dosage interval at steady-state (Pl-Nifss). The study was carried out as a within-patient comparison of treatment with nifedipine or placebo for 4 weeks. A highly significant reduction in blood pressure was obtained during monotherapy, as well as during combined treatment. The blood pressure reduction when nifedipine was added to beta-adrenoceptor blockade was of the same magnitude as that observed on nifedipine monotherapy. A considerable variation in Pl-Nifss was noted (range: 2–70 ng/ml). No significant correlation was found between the percentage reduction in blood pressure and Pl-Nifss in either of the two groups. There was a close relationship between Pl-Nifss and the concentration found 4 h after the morning dose. Side-effects were common during nifedipine monotherapy and were the reason for discontinuation of treatment in 4 of 18 patients. In contrast, none of the 9 patients on combined treatment dropped-out. In neither of the treatment groups was there any evidence for sodium retention and volume expansion during the first 4 weeks expressed as weight gain or signs of cardiac insufficiency. However, in 13 patients who continued on long-term treatment for 3–14 months, a definite need for concomitant diuretic therapy was found. The results indicate that nifedipine is effective in lowering blood pressure in patients with mild to moderate essential hypertension, either when given alone or in addition to beta-adrenoceptor blockade. It appears best tolerated as combination therapy. Long-term treatment requires addition of a diuretic. Pl-Nifss did not seem to be a major determinant of the magnitude of the hypotensive response.

    Prazosin depression of baroreflex function in hypertensive man (1982)

    ISSN: 1432-1041
    Keywords: prazosin ; baroreflexes ; hypertension ; reflex tachycardia ; alpha adrenergic blockade ; dopamine-beta-hydroxylase
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary Prazosin is a post synaptic alpha adrenergic blocker effective in hypertension, whose hypotensive effect is unaccompanied by reflex tachycardia or hyperreninemia, nor by other evidence of increased sympathetic activity. We studied the baroreceptor reflex arc as a potential mediator of these effects. Twenty-two essential hypertensive men were treated with prazosin alone versus placebo, and experienced a blood pressure fall (from 114.8±3.6 down to 101.1±2.5 mm Hg,p〈0.005) unaccompanied by any change in heart rate, plasma renin activity, or several other indices of sympathetic nervous system activity (plasma dopamine-β-hydroxylase activity; urinary excretion of free catecholamines and vanillyl mandelic acid; allp〉0.1). Concomitant with the blood pressure fall, there was a significant depression of baroreflex arc sensitivity, from 11.4±2.0 ms/mmHg down to 6.6±1.9 ms/mmHg (p〈0.05), without an associated change in cardiac vagal inhibition (291.2±46.2 versus 300.3±19.2 ms,p〉0.1). Baroreflex arc sensitivity depression may in part explain the lack of reflex sympathetic outflow noted during prazosin treatment of hypertension.

    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary The effects of captopril 450 mg/day for 4 weeks on blood pressure, heart rate, cardiac output and extracellular fluid volume were compared in severe, often drug-resistant hypertension (n=23), mild to moderate hypertension associated with renal artery stenosis (n=10) and mild to moderate essential hypertension (n=20). Plasma renin in the three groups was 52±19, 58±17 and 20±4 µU/ml (mean ± SEM), respectively. Blood pressure fell by 18±4%, 21±2% and 18±1%. The pressure drop was mainly due to a fall in peripheral vascular resistance. Addition of the diuretic hydrochlorothiazide (25–100 mg/day) caused a further fall in resistance. Despite the vasodilator effect of captopril, reflex cardiostimulation and reactive fluid retention were not observed. In severe hypertension, captopril alone was more effective in lowering blood pressure than combined diuretic-betablocker-vasodilator therapy. Moreover, cardiac output in these patients was higher and resistance was lower after captopril than during combined treatment. Thus, captopril was capable of normalising the abnormal haemodynamic state in patients with essential hypertension, and in hypertension associated with renal artery stenosis. Despite marked differences in pre-treatment plasma renin, the effects of captopril on systemic haemodynamics were similar in all the patients.
