Abstract
The regulation of and the intracellular events following alpha 1-adrenergic receptor stimulation in the myocardium still remain to be disclosed. The effect of alpha 1-adrenergic stimulation on phosphoinositide breakdown was studied in cultured neonatal rat ventricular myocytes. Phenylephrine (30 microM) stimulated inositolphosphates formation, but only in the presence of 10 mM LiCl this could be measured. The increase was antagonized by prazosin (1 microM) but not by propranolol (1 microM). The variability in proportional distribution of the three inositolphosphates is discussed.Entities:
