| Abstract | 1. We have compared prejunctional alpha 2-adrenoceptors in rat and guinea-pig vas deferens and rat and guinea-pig atria with postjunctional alpha 2-adrenoceptors in human saphenous vein and human platelets employing the antagonists yohimbine and SK&F 104078 and other alpha 2-adrenoceptor antagonists. 2. Yohimbine was approximately 10 times more potent prejunctionally than SK&F 104078 at antagonizing the inhibition by the alpha 2-adrenoceptor agonist xylazine of stimulation-evoked contractions in rat and guinea-pig vas deferens, and at increasing stimulation-evoked release of tritium in rat and guinea-pig atria pre-incubated with [3H]-noradrenaline. 3. Yohimbine was approximately 10 times more potent postjunctionally than SK&F 104078 at antagonizing contractions to noradrenaline in human saphenous vein and at displacing [3H]-yohimbine binding in human platelet membranes. 4. For the antagonists yohimbine, SK&F 104078, prazosin, phentolamine, CH 38083 and urapidil, there was a significant correlation between prejunctional potency in rat vas deferens atrium and postjunctional potency in human platelet, although the correlation was improved by the omission of prazosin. 5. We have no evidence for differences between functional pre- and postjunctional alpha 2-adrenoceptors in the periphery, although these functional receptors may differ from the ligand binding site in the human platelet. |

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.
