MODIFICATION OF THE EFFECTS OF GUANETHIDINE ON CARDIAC CATECHOL AMINES BY VARIOUS AGENTS.

A study has been made of the effect of injections of guanethidine in rats, in depleting catechol amines from the whole cardiac ventricles and from various subcellular fractions. Unlike reserpine, guanethidine first affected the concentration of the amines in the soluble fraction of the cell. Neither [2-(2,6-dimethylphenoxy)-propyl]trimethylammonium chloride monohydrate (beta-methyl xylocholine) nor hemicholinium affected the endogenous catechol amines or the uptake of injected noradrenaline, but each significantly reduced the action of guanethidine in depleting catechol amines. Administration of choline chloride after hemicholinium reversed its influence on guanethidine depletion. In cats, cocaine potentiated the pressor response to noradrenaline, but antagonized the response to tyramine and guanethidine, while bretylium and N-o-chlorobenzyl-N'N"-dimethylguanidine sulphate (BW392C60) potentiated the responses to noradrenaline, tyramine and guanethidine.
