| Abstract | 1. Local modulation of adrenergic responses was examined in the hindlimb vasculature of chronically instrumented intact conscious rats. Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 22) were instrumented with a Doppler flow probe around the right common iliac artery, a polyethylene catheter inserted just distal to the flow probe and a left carotid arterial catheter. 2. The effects of various concentrations of the alpha 1-adrenergic receptor agonist phenylephrine (0.005-0.075 microgram kg-1), the alpha 2-adrenergic receptor agonist clonidine (0.1-0.7 microgram kg-1), and the endogenous adrenergic receptor agonist adrenaline (0.02-0.08 microgram kg-1), were investigated under control conditions, and in the presence of the nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor N omega-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester hydrochoride (L-NAME) (NO-X, 0.2 mg kg-1) and the cyclo-oxygenase inhibitor indomethacin (CO-X, 10 mg kg-1). Results were presented as dose-response curves. 3. Heart rate and arterial pressure were not altered by any of the agents because all were locally injected into the hindlimb vasculature and the selected doses were lower than those which elicited systemic responses. 4. Maximal vasoconstrictor responses to phenylephrine were enhanced in the presence of NO-X (50 +/- 6%) and CO-X (70 +/- 9%). Maximal vasoconstrictor responses to clonidine were also enhanced in the presence of NO-X (75.3 +/- 4.8%) and CO-X (50.6 +/- 5.7%). 5. The responses to adrenaline were biphasic; NO-X significantly attenuated the vasodilator response (87 +/- 6%), and enhanced the vasoconstrictor response (51 +/- 7%). CO-X attenuated the vasoconstrictor response (71 +/- 6%). 6. These results demonstrate local modulation of responses to alpha 1- and beta-adrenergic receptor agonists by receptor-mediated dose-dependent release of NO and prostaglandins. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
