| Abstract | The cardiovascular effects of the pyridazinone-derivatives pimobendan and its O-demethylmetabolite UD-CG 212 Cl (2-(4-hydroxy-phenyl)-5-(5-methyl-3-oxo-4,5-dihydro-2H-6-pyridazinyl) benzimidazole HCl) were studied in conscious pigs, employing consecutive intravenous 10 min infusions of 10, 25, 50 and 100 micrograms kg-1 min-1 and 2, 4 and 8 micrograms kg-1 min-1 respectively. Pimobendan caused dose-dependent increases in LVdP/dtmax (up to 115%) and heart rate (up to 30%), while cardiac output was slightly elevated (up to 15%) and stroke volume decreased by 12%. Left ventricular end-diastolic pressure decreased in a dose-related manner from 8.7 +/- 1.0 mmHg to 2.7 +/- 1.7 mmHg. Mean arterial blood pressure was not significantly affected because systemic vascular resistance decreased dose-dependently up to 15%. After beta-adrenoceptor blockade, the pimobendan-induced increases in heart rate and cardiac output were attenuated and the increase in LVdP/dtmax almost abolished. The responses of left ventricular end-diastolic and mean arterial blood pressure, systemic vascular resistance and stroke volume were not modified. UD-CG 212 Cl caused dose-related increases in LVdP/dtmax (up to 100%) and heart rate (up to 25%). Cardiac output was minimally elevated (up to 8%) as stroke volume decreased dose-dependently up to 15%. As systemic vascular resistance decreased up to 12%, mean arterial blood pressure was slightly reduced (5%). Left ventricular end-diastolic blood pressure decreased dose-dependently from 9.0 +/- 0.8 mmHg to 3.8 +/- 1.3 mmHg. After beta-adrenoceptor blockade, the UD-CG 212 Cl-induced increases in heart rate and LVdP/dtmax were attenuated and almost abolished and amounted up to 15% and 20%, respectively. The responses of the other systemic haemodynamic parameters were not significantly modified. We conclude that pimobendan and UD-CG 212 Cl are compounds with marked positive inotropic and venodilator properties in the conscious pig. The attenuation of the inotropic effects by pretreatment with propranolol strongly suggests that, in the conscious pig, the beta-adrenergic system is significantly involved in the positive inotropic actions. The lack of effect of beta-adrenoceptor blockade on the vasodilator responses to both compounds suggest a mechanism not related to beta-adrenergic activity. |

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.
