| Abstract | The effects of potassium channel blockers, 3,4-diaminopyridine (DAP) and tetraethylammonium (TEA) were studied on the pre- and post-junctional alpha 2-adrenoceptor mediated effects of noradrenaline in the guinea-pig proximal ileum. Both DAP (4 to 500 mumol l-1) and TEA (0.3 to 3 mmol l-1) transiently increased the basal tension of the ileum. However, DAP also increased the amplitude of the smooth muscle twitches evoked by transmural nerve stimulation, whereas TEA marginally depressed them. Atropine (2 mumol l-1) antagonized the contractions induced by DAP but did not affect the similar effects of TEA. On the other hand, DAP restored the smooth muscle twitches depressed by atropine, while TEA did not. DAP, in a concentration-dependent manner, reduced or abolished the prejunctional inhibitory alpha 2-adrenoceptor mediated effect of noradrenaline, whereas TEA (up to 3 mmol l-1) was almost ineffective. The postjunctional inhibitory alpha 2-adrenoceptor mediated effect of noradrenaline was attenuated even at the smallest TEA concentration used (0.3 mmol l-1) and its postjunctional stimulatory alpha 1-adrenoceptor mediated effect was unmasked. However, DAP, was only marginally effective, even at the highest concentrations used (100 and 500 mumol l-1). From these results it would appear that in both the pre- and post-junctional inhibitory alpha 2-adrenoceptor mediated actions of noradrenaline in the guinea-pig ileum the primary step might be an increased potassium conductance. However, the potassium channels on the neuronal and the smooth muscle membrane have different sensitivities to DAP and TEA. |

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.
