A new pharyngitis model using capsaicin in rats

Mutsumi Yamabe; Tomokazu Hosokawa; Teruro Taoka; Miwa Misawa

Abstract 1. 1. Application of capsaicin solution onto the rat pharyngeal mucosa caused a well-reproducible increase in vascular permeability in the pharynx. 2. 2. Capsaicin-induced pharyngeal inflammation was unaffected by a histamine H1 blocker and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, whereas dexamethasone was effective in its inhibition. 3. 3. FK224, a dual antagonist of tachykinin NK1 and NK2 receptors, and FK888, a selective antagonist of NK1 receptor, significantly inhibited capsaicin-induced plasma exudation in the pharynx. 4. 4. In capsaicinized animals, the application of capsaicin solution in the pharyngeal mucosa did not induce pharyngitis. 5. 5. These results suggest that the mechanism of the capsaicin-induced pharyngitis primarily involves tachykinins.

Abnormal modulation of cholinergic neurotransmission by opioid in hyperresponsive bronchus of rats

Miwa Misawa; Junya Sato; Yuko Furukawa; Yoshihiko Chiba; Tomokazu Hosokawa

1. The electrical field stimulation (EFS)-induced bronchoconstriction in vitro in rats challenged by DNP-Ascaris antigen was significantly greater than that in normal rats. 2. Morphine inhibited the EFS-induced bronchoconstriction in normal rats. Whereas the inhibition of EFS-induced bronchoconstriction by the opioid was little, if any, in the DNP-Ascaris-challenged rats. 3. These findings suggest that dysfunction of presynaptic inhibitory modulation through the opioid receptor may take place in the airways of DNP-Ascaris-challenged rats.

[Effects of hog pancreatic kallikrein and kallidin on regional blood flow and the heart (author's transl)].

Saizo Yanaura; Yoshikazu Yamatake; Tomokazu Hosokawa; Harumi Kitagawa

ブタ膵kallikreinの各種臓器循環に対する作用並びに心臓に対する作用を,麻酔犬において,kallidinのそれと比較しつつ検討した.Kallikrein 0.01-0.1unit/kg静脈内全身投与は各血管床の血流を用量依存的に増加させた.その効果は椎骨動脈で最も強く,次いで,大腿動脈,冠動脈および内頸動脈の順で,上腸間膜動脈,腎動脈および門脈での作用は極めて弱かった.Kallidin O.3-3.Ong/kg静注では殆んど作用は認められなかった.局所動注あるいは門脈内注射の場合,kallikrein 0.01-0.1unitは血流に全く変化のなかった門脈以外は,各血管の血流量を用量依存的に増加させた.その作用は静注時と異なり,椎骨動脈より大腿動脈に強く認められた.他の血管は静注の場合と同様の順位であった.Kallidin 0.3-3.0 ngは静注時と異なりkallikreinとほぼ同様の反応パターンをもつ血管拡張を示し,各血管における作用強度もkallikreinの示した順位と同様であった.開胸犬および心肺標本を用いて静注あるいは右心房内投与,および左心房内投与を試みたところ,kallidinは前者経路では全く作用が現れず,左心房内投与で強い作用が出現したことから,kalldinは肺で殆んど失活することが解った.Kallikreinでは両適用経路の間で反応に差は認められなかった.開胸犬および心肺標本からkallikreinは心収縮力および心拍数といった心機能に対し直接作用を有しないことが明らかにされた.今回kallikreinの示した末梢血管拡張作用は,脳循環および四肢循環障害改善といったkallikreinの臨床応用を裏付けていると思われる.

視床下部に起因した情動行動の条件づけ(その3) ―ウサギの視床下部刺激による学習行動―

Saizo Yanaura; Kazuo Funada; Youichi Abe; Tomokazu Hosokawa

視床下部刺激下の情動行動を検索するためには,情動の表出と体験という2つの要素を考慮する必要がある.従来より著者らは,視床下部の情動行動を表出の立場から薬理学的に検索してきた.また,体験の水準を明らかにするため,前報において古典的条件づけにより視床下部刺激下のconflict-induced behaviorの形成を試みるとともに,この行動modelを用いて向精神薬の作用検索を行った.そこで本実験では,さらYom..視床下部刺激の質的検討および条件反応に対する向精神薬の作用検索を行う目的で,視床下部刺激による学習行動について検討した.動物は視床下部領域に慢性電極を植込んだウサギを用い,実験装置はウサギ用に改良したshuttle boxを使用した.強化実験は,慣れが形成した動物について,条件刺激としてブザー音,無条件刺激として視床下部の電気刺激を用いて行った.その結果,回避形成群,回避から逃避形成に変化した群および逃避形成群の3群が出現した.回避を形成した群を回避行動mode1,回避から逃避形成に変化した群および逃避形成群を逃避行動modelとして分類した.さらに,これらの行動modelは,強化過程の反応潜時に対する作用あるいは消去工作の結果から,学習された行動であることが判明した.

Pharmacological studies on the cough reflex

Saizo Yanaura; Tomoo Nishimura; Tomokazu Hosokawa; Hiroaki Iwase

The artificially induced cough reflex in experimental animals should necessarily be similar to the cough which occurs naturally in humans. The curve demonstrated during a cough of each patient with respiratory disease was characteristic. Compared with the curve of a cough-like reflex (CLR) induced by DMPP, the curve of a cough induced by electrical stimulation of the tracheal mucosa was similar to that of a cough in humans. In dogs and cats anesthetized with alpha-chloralose (80 similar to 100 mg/kg i.p.), the number of CLR with DMPP was dose dependent. Tachphylaxis did not occur despite repeated administration of DMPP. DMPP (5 similar to 10 mug/kg i.v.) did not affect airway resistance. CLR with DMPP was depressed not only by morphine, codeine, oxymethebanol, picoperidamine, piclobetol and hexacol but also by hexamethonium. Thus, it appears that the mechanism of CLR with DMPP is different from that in the cough reflex. This CLR may be utilized for determining the physiology of cough reflex and the site of action of antitussives.
