Abstract
1 Noradrenaline and Sgd 101/75 (4(2-imidazoline-amino)-2-methylindazol-chlorhydrate) acted as full agonists in contracting the rat anococcygeus. 2 Very low concentrations of phenoxybenzamine (0.3 nM for 2-30 min) reduced preferentially the effects of Sgd 101/75. Preparations made insensitive to Sgd 101/75 by phenoxybenzamine still contracted to noradrenaline, this contraction occurring in the presence of high concentrations (400 microM) of Sgd 101/75. 3 It is concluded therefore that the alpha 1-adrenoceptor in this preparation is not a homogeneous entity and must be subdivided into at least two subtypes.Entities:
