Abstract: | The potentiating activity of SG-86N-(2-hydroxyethyl)nicotinamide], a denitrated metabolite of nicorandil, on the adenosine-induced vasodepression was compared with that of nicorandil in anesthetized rats. Single bolus i.v. adenosine (3-100 micrograms/kg) produced dose-dependent reductions of blood pressure, accompanied by slight decreases (except for 100 micrograms/kg) in heart rate. The adenosine-induced vasodepression was significantly enhanced during i.v. infusion of either SG-86 (100 micrograms/kg per min) as well as nicorandil (10 micrograms/kg per min). The enhancement of adenosine action by them did not occur in the presence of glibenclamide (20 mg/kg i.v.). Single bolus i.v. injections of SG-86 (0.3-30 mg/kg), except for 30 mg/kg, which caused a glibenclamide-sensitive decrease by about 5-10 mmHg in mean arterial blood pressure, had no effects on blood pressure and heart rate, whereas those of nicorandil (30-300 micrograms/kg) elicited overt reduction of blood pressure, accompanied by decreases in heart rate. The present results revealed that SG-86, like nicorandil, significantly enhanced the vasodepressor response to adenosine, probably in part through KATP channel activation, and that the activity of SG-86 was about 10 times less potent than that of nicorandil. |
