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).

In vivo effects of CB(1) receptor ligands on lipid peroxidation and antioxidant defense systems in the rat brain of healthy and ethanol-treated rats.
In vivo experiments were conducted to study the effects of N-(piperidin-l-yl)-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(2,4-cochlo-rophenyl)-4-methyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxamide (SR141716A; a potent and selective CB(1)-receptor antagonist) an...
Enhancement of the anti-immobility action of antidepressants by risperidone in the forced swimming test in mice.
The aim of the present study was to examine the effect of antidepressants (ADs) belonging to different pharmacological groups and risperidone (an atypical antipsychotic drug), given separately or jointly, on immobility t...
Role of vinpocetine in cerebrovascular diseases.
A cerebrovascular accident, or stroke, is defined as the abrupt onset of a neurological deficit, which can be due to ischemia. Cerebral ischemia is caused by a reduction in blood flow that thereby decreases cerebral meta...
Effect of total and partial nephrectomy on the elimination of ciprofloxacin in humans.
Background: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common form of kidney cancer. Surgery is a standard procedure to resect the tumor during total (TN) or partial (nephron-sparing) nephrectomy (PN). Ciprofloxacin is most...
Cytoprotective effect of amifostine in the treatment of childhood neoplastic diseases - a clinical study including the pharmacoeconomic analysis.
Amifostine is an active aminothiol, which has unique properties as a radio-and chemoprotective agent. It has been reported to prevent myelosuppresion and reduce the toxic effects of intensive cancer treatment. In the stu...
