MYOCARDIAL DEPRESSANT ACTIVITY OF A NEWLY SYNTHESISED DIHYDROPYRIMIDINE DERIVATIVE 5-ACYL-6-METHYL-4-PHENYL-2-S-ETHYL-1, 4-DIHYDROPYRIMIDINE (BK-vi) IN COMPARISON WITH NIFEDIPINE
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical and Clinical Research - Year 2012, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Objective- To investigate the myocardial depressant activity of a newly synthesised dihydropyrimidine derivative 5-acyl-6-methyl-4-phenyl-2 -S-ethyl-1,4-dihydropyrimidine (BK - vi) and comparing with nifedipine on Isolated perfused rabbit heart. Material and Methods- Effects of the test compound BK-vi on the amplitude,heart rate and coronary flow on isolated perfused rabbit heart was compared with nifedipine.Observations were made with increasing concentrations of BK-vi and Nifedipine with dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) as the solvent.Six preparations were used for each dose of BK-vi and nifedipine.Heart rate ,amplitude and coronary flow were noted down every minute for five minutes after injection of each drug and control. Results- On comparing the effects of BK-vi and nifedipine, it was found that both had a negative inotropic and negative chronotropic effect. Compound BK -vi did not produce significant effect on heart rate at all the four doses. In comparison, nifedipine produced a significant to highly significant decrease in heart rate.Significant decrease in amplitude with BK-vi was seen at dose of 7.29 X 10-4M and 14.5 X 10-4M by 42% and 56.98% respectively and in coronary flow by 39.95% at dose of 14.5 X 10-4M .Nifedipine significantly decreased heart rate and amplitude at all doses with cardiac arrest at 4.6 X 10-5M.A significant increase in coronary flow was seen with nifedipine by 9.4% and 13% at doses of 0.5 X 10-5M and 1.15 X 10-5M respectively though this property was lost at higher doses.On comparison, BK-vi produced significant myocardial depression at much higher dose than nifedipine. Conclusion- BK-vi has calcium channel blocking activity like nifedipine and produced less potent myocardial depression in comparison with nifedipine.
