Abstract
Ear arteries from rabbits were preincubated with 3H-noradrenaline and then perfused. 2-[2-(1,4-Benzodioxanyl)]-2-imidazoline (RX 781094) 0.1 or 1 microM reduced the overflow of 3H-noradrenaline and total tritium elicited by 13 electrical pulses at 0.25 Hz or 26 Pulses at 0.5 Hz. RX 781 094 1 microM increased the overflow elicited by 52 pulses at 1 Hz. The inhibitory effects were blocked by yohimbine 10 microM but not by prazosin 1 microM. The alleged antagonist RX 781 094 possesses intrinsic activity at the presynaptic alpha 2-autoreceptors of the ear artery.Entities:
