Abstract
On the basis of our earlier studies in a group of 7,8-disubstituted derivatives of 1,3-dimetyl-3,7-dihydropurine-2,6-dione, a series of new 8-alkylamino-1,3-dimethyl-7-(2-hydroxy-3-aminopropyl)-3,7-dihydropurine-2,6-diones (8-15) were synthesized and tested for their electrocardiographic, antiarrhythmic and hypotensive activity and for α(1)- and α(2)-adrenoreceptor affinities. Among the new derivatives, compounds with the 7-[2-hydroxy-3-(4-phenylpiperazine)-propyl] substituent (9-11) displayed prophylactic antiarrhythmic activity in epinephrine-induced arrhythmia. Analogue 10 with the 8-(2-morpholin-4-yl)-ethylamino group was the most active (ED(50) = 3.9 mg/kg and TI = 59.8), which may indicate that this substituent is preferably important for the antiarrhythmic effect. Only compound 11 with the 8-(2-diethylamino)-ethylamino group significantly decreased the systolic (20.4-28.1%) and diastolic (23.4-33.2%) pressure, but this effect lasted for only 1-5 min. The pharmacologically active compounds 9-11 with the phenylpiperazine moiety showed affinity for α(1)-receptors (K(i) = 0.143-0.383 μM), but the other compounds were almost (12-15) or completely (8) inactive at this site. Compounds 9-11 and 13-15 displayed moderate to low affinity for α(2)-receptors (K(i) = 0.36-2.7 μM).

Effect of lead exposure on memory processes in mice after cerebral oligemia.
The purpose of this study was to find out whether the effect of acute exposure to lead on memory processes in mice could be exacerbated by cerebral oligemia. Adult mice were subjected to 30 min of bilateral clamping of c...

Effects of melatonin in a place preference conditioning depend on the time of administration.
A conditioned place preference paradigm was used to assess potential rewarding properties of melatonin. The conditioning with melatonin was carried out at two periods of the 12-h light/dark cycle: in the morning (08.30-1...
