Effects of glibenclamide on negative cardiac responses to cholinergic and purinergic stimuli and cromakalim in the isolated dog heart.
Japanese Journal of Pharmacology(1994)
摘要
We investigated the effects of an ATP-sensitive K+ channel blocker, glibenclamide, on the negative chronotropic and inotropic responses to intracardiac parasympathetic nerve stimulation, acetylcholine (ACh, a muscarinic receptor agonist), ATP (a P2-purinergic receptor agonist), adenosine (a P1-purinergic receptor agonist) and cromakalim (a potassium channel opener) in the isolated, blood-perfused canine right atrium or left ventricle. A high dose of glibenclamide (3 μmol) did not affect the negative chronotropic and inotropic responses to parasympathetic stimulation (frequencies of 1-30 Hz), although it slightly but significantly attenuated the negative cardiac responses to exogenous ACh (0.3-10 nmol). Furthermore, adenosine (0.03-0.3 μmol)-induced negative chronotropic and inotropic responses were significantly inhibited by glibenclamide (3 μmol), but ATP (0.01-1 μmol)-induced negative cardiac responses were not affected. A cumulative administration of cromakalim (0.01-1 μmol) dose-dependently caused much greater decreases in the contractile force of atrial and ventricular muscles than in sinus rate. Glibenclamide (0.3-3 μmol) similarly blocked the negative chronotropic and inotropic responses to cromakalim in a dose-dependent manner. These results suggest that glibenclamide modifies the negative cardiac responses to parasympathetic activation both in pre- and postjunctional sites and the responses to adenosine but not to ATP at K+ channels in the dog heart, although the modifications are minor under physiological conditions.
