마취가토에서 혈압유지에 중요한 역할을 하고 있는 교감신경계, renin-angiotensin계, vasopressin계를 차단하였을때의 혈압자체의 변동과 norepinephrine (NE), angiotensin II (AII) 및 vasopressin (VP)의 승압효과의 변동을 조사하였다. 교감신경계와 renin-angiotensin계의 차단에는 각각 교감신경절 차단약인 chlorisondamine (CS)과 pirenzepine (PZ), angiotensin 변환효소억제약인 enalapril (ENAL)를 사용하였다. VP계의 차단에는 혈장 VP농도를 하강시킴이 알려져 있는 kappa opioid 수용체의 작용약인 bremazocine (BREM)을 사용하였다. CS (0.4mg/kg), ENAL (2mg/kg), BREM (0.25mg/kg)은 각각 비슷한 정도의 저혈압상태를 일으켰다. BREM에 의한 저혈압은 VP와 같은 효과를 가진 합성약인 desmopressin으로 유의하게 길항되었으며 BREM에 의한 저혈압이 적어도 일부 혈장 VP농도의 하강과 관계있음을 시사하였다. CS는 ENAL 또는 BREM으로 하강된 혈압을, ENAL은 CS 또는 BREM으로 하강된 혈압을, BREM은 CS 또는 ENAL로 하강된 혈압을, 더욱 하강시켰다. CS, PZ 그리고 ENAL 또는 CS, PZ 그리고 BREM에 의한 저혈압은 CS이외의 세약물에 의한 저혈압보다 심하였다. CS는 NE에 의한 승압효과 뿐만아니라 AII와 VP의 승압효과도 강화시켰다. AII의 승압효과는 또 ENAL과 BREM으로도 증대되었다. VP의 승압효과는 BREM으로도 강화되었다. ${\alpha}$-수용체의 길항약인 phentolamine과 phenoxybenzamine은 AII와 VP승압효과를 강화시켰다. 3승압계 차단이 혈압자체에 미치는 실험결과는 3계가 모두 혈압조절에 관여하고 그 중에서도 교감신경계가 가장 큰 역할을 하고 있음을 가리키고 있다. 한 승압계의 차단하에서, 그 계의 승압 hormone 뿐만아니라 다른 계의 승압 hormone의 승압효과도 증대됨은 이 3승압계가 긴밀한 상호작용을 하고 있는 증거이다.

Background and Objectives : Laryngopharyngeal reflux disease (LPRD) originates from regurgitation of gastric contents to the laryngopharynx, and it is relatively common disease in otolaryngology. Proton-pump inhibitor (PPI) medication is frequently using treatment method in present time, but controversies exist regarding treatment for it. High-resolution manometry (HRM) system is a newly developed device that using 36 channels and pressure topography plotting program, checking the function and status of esophagus. The aim of this study was to evaluate clinical usefulness of HRM in LPRD patients who do not response to PPI medication. Materials and Method : From July 2009 to July 2010, a total of 99 patients who were suspected LPRD according to symptoms (Reflux Symptom Index >13) and laryngoscopic findings (Reflux Finding Score >7) were retrospectively enrolled in this study. Patients were consisted of 31 men and 68 women, the mean age was 51.8 years, the mean BMI was 22.46. Patients have taken PPI medication for 2 months, after medication, they performed HRM. Comparative analysis was performed with results of the difference in symptoms. Results : In 99 patients, 37 patients (37.4%) show not improvement of LPRD symptoms after PPI medication. Among them, 18 patients (48.6%) showed abnormal findings that were classified as Peristaltic dysfunction (38.9%), Diffuse esophageal spasm (11.1%), Relaxation impairment of LES (11.1%), Achalasia (5.6%), Hypotensive LES (11.1%), Relaxation impairment of UES (11.1%), Nutcracker esophagus (5.6%), Decreased resting pressure (5.6%). Other 62 patients (62.6%) show improvement of LPRD symptoms, 23 patients (37.1%) showed abnormal findings. Most common finding was Peristaltic dysfunction (43.4%) More prevalent abnormal findings of HRM were found in patients who revealed no response to PPI medication (48.6% vs. 37.1%), but it does not reach the statistical significance. Conclusion : Although statistical significances is not showed, the difference observed in the frequency of HRM abnormal finding between response and no response for PPI medication. It has been estimated that HRM may be used to determine differential diagnosis in patients with LPRD. Further studies in lager population containing normal controls will be needed to prove clinical usefulness.

The arterial pressure is regulated by the nervous and humoral mechanisms. The neuronal regulation is mostly carried out by the autonomic nervous system through the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM), a key area for the cardiovascular regulation, and the humoral regulation is mediated by a number of substances, including the angiotensin (Ang) II and vasopressin. Recent studies suggest that central interleukin-1 (IL-1) activates the sympathetic nervous system and produces hypertension. The present study was undertaken to elucidate whether IL-1 and Ang II interact in the regulation of cardiovascular responses to the stress of hemorrhage. Thus, Sprague-Dawley rats were anesthetized and both femoral arteries were cannulated for direct measurement of arterial pressure and heart rate (HR) and for inducing hemorrhage. A guide cannula was placed into the lateral ventricle for injection of IL-1 $(0.1,\;1,\;10,\;20\;ng/2\;{\mu}l)$ or Ang II $(600\;ng/10\;{\mu}l)$. A glass microelectrode was inserted into the RVLM to record the single unit spike potential. Barosensitive neurons were identified by an increased number of single unit spikes in RVLM following intravenous injection of nitroprusside. I.c.v. $IL-1\;{\beta}$ increased mean arterial pressure (MAP) in a dose-dependent fashion, but HR in a dose-independent pattern. The baroreceptor reflex sensitivity was not affected by i.c.v. $IL-1\;{\beta}$. Both i.c.v. $IL-1\;{\alpha}\;and\;{\beta}$ produced similar increase in MAP and HR. When hemorrhage was induced after i.c.v. injection of $IL-1\;{\beta}$, the magnitude of MAP fall was not different from the control. The $IL-1\;{\beta}$ group showed a smaller decrease in HR and a lower spike potential count in RVLM than the control. MAP fall in response to hemorrhage after i.c.v. injection of Ang II was not different from the control. When both IL-1 and Ang II were simultaneously injected i.c.v., however, MAP fall was significantly smaller than the control, and HR was increased rather than decreased. These data suggest that IL-1, a defense immune mediator, manifests a hypertensive action in the central nervous system and attenuates the hypotensive response to hemorrhage by interaction with Ang II.

GABA계가 뇌내의 교감신경계기능에 영향을 주어서 혈압조절에 관여함이 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 마취가토에서 GABA계가 두개내압증가에 의한 혈압상승에 관여하는가를 조사하였다. 두개내압증가에 의한 승압은 측뇌실내 muscimol (GABA 작용약)이나 clonidine $({\alpha}_2$-작용약) 전처리후에는 볼 수 없었다. 측뇌실내 yohimbine $({\alpha}_2$-길항약)으로 일으킨 고혈압은 두개내압증가를 하여도 더 이상 상승하지 않았으나, 측뇌실내 bicuculline (GABA 길항약)으로 일으킨 고혈압은 두개내압증가로 더욱 상승하였다. Bicuculline은 muscimol이나 clonidine 저혈압에서는 승압을 일으켰으나 yohimbine이나 두개내압증가에 의한 고혈압에서는 무효였다. Yohimbine은 clonidine 저혈압은 상승시켰으나 muscimol 저혈압에 있어서는 무효였다. Yohimbine은 두개내압증가에 따른 승압상태는 더 올리지 못하였으나 bicuculline 승압상태는 더욱 상승시켰다. Muscimol은 bicuculline과의 길항성이외에 yohimbine 승압을 억제함을 알았으며 yohimbine 승압에 GABA계가 관여함을 추측할 수 있었다. 이러한 실험결과로 두개내압증가에 따른 승압상승은 (1) ${\alpha}_{2}$-수용체, (2) bicuculline-감수성 GABA 수용체, (3) yohimbine-감수성인 clonidine이 작용하는 GABA계 부위의 세가지 방법으로 억제성인 교감신경기능을 불활성화하여 일어나는 것으로 추론하였다.

1) Urethane 마취가토(痲醉家兎)에서 경뇌막외강내(硬腦膜外腔內)에 삽입(揷入)한 balloon을 통(通)한 가압(加壓) 및 두개내압기종방법(頭蓋內壓記種方法)에 의하여 내압(內壓)을 상승(上昇)시키고, 이 내압상승(內壓上昇)에 따른 혈압상승(血壓上昇)에 미치는 ${\alpha}_2-adrenoceptor$ antagonist인 yohimbine의 영향(影響)을 관찰(觀察)하였다. 2) 내압(內壓)은 가압(加壓)balloon 내(內) 식염수주입(食鹽水注入)으로 주입초기(注入初期) 에는 완만(緩慢)하게 그 후 점차(漸次) 급격(急激)하게 상승(上昇)하였다. 이에 따라 혈압(血壓)은 처음에 경미(輕微)한 하강경향(下降傾向)을 보인 후 급격(急激)하게 상승(上昇)하였고, 더욱 내압(內壓)을 상승(上昇)시키면 혈압(血壓)은 심(甚)한 하강(下降)을 보였다. 최고혈압상승정도(最高血壓上昇程度)는 원혈압(元血壓)의 $49{\pm}2.4%$(32예(例) 평균(平均)${\pm}SE)$의 증가(增加)였으며, 이때에 가압(加壓)balloon 내(內)로 주입(注入)된 식염수양(食鹽水量)은 $1.22{\pm}0.15\;ml$, 내압(內壓)은 $165{\pm}6.4\;mmHg$였다. 3) 측뇌실내(側腦室內) yohimbine$(50{\mu}g)$은 혈압자체(血壓自體) 영향(影響)을 미치지 못하였으나, 본양(本量)의 yohimbine 투여후(投與後)에는 가압(加壓)balloon내(內)에 대조동물(對照動物)에서보다 훨씬 적은 양(量)의 식염수주입(食鹽水注入)으로 내압(內壓) 및 혈압(血壓)이 상승(上昇)하였다. 즉(卽) 최고혈압상승(最高血壓上昇) (6예평균(例平均, $57{\pm}4.5%)$이 나타날 때의 가압(加壓)balloon 내(內)에 주입된 식염수양(食鹽水量)은 $0.83{\pm}0.02\;ml$, 내압(內壓)은 $164{\pm}9.6\;mmHg$였다. 4) $Clonidine(30\;{\mu}g)$의 측뇌실내(側腦室內) 주입후(注入後) 혈압자체(血壓自體)는 하강(下降)되었고 이때 가압(加壓)balloon 내 식염수주입(食鹽水注入)에 의한 내압상승(內壓上昇)은 대조군(對照郡)보다 순화(純化)되었으며 혈압상승(血壓上昇)은 거의 볼 수 없었다. 5) $Clonidine(30\;{\mu}g)$투여(投與)로 하강(下降)된 혈압(血壓)은 $yohimbine(500\;{\mu}g)$투여(投與)로 거의 원혈압(原血壓)으로 회복(回復)되었고, 이때 내압(內壓)을 상승(上昇)시키면 대조군(對照郡)에서와 같은 내압상승(內壓上昇)에 따른 혈압상승(血壓上昇)이 나타났다. 6) 본실험(本實驗) 성적(成績)은 가토(家兎)에서 ${\alpha}_2-adrenoceptor$ antagonist가 뇌(腦)에 존재(存在)할 때는 두개뇌압상승(頭蓋腦壓上昇)에 따른 혈압상승(血壓上昇)이 촉진(促進)되고 또한 ${\alpha}_2-adrenoceptor\;agonist$에 의한 두개뇌압상승(頭蓋腦壓上昇)에 따른 혈압상승(血壓上昇)의 억제(抑制)가 나타나지 않음을 가리키고 있다.

The present study was undertaken to investigate the effects of ${\beta}-eudesmol$, one of various ingredients isolated and identified from the bark of Magnolia obovata Thunberg, on arterial blood pressure and vascular contractile responses in the normotensve rats and to establish its mechanism of action. ${\beta}-Eudesmol\;(30{\sim}300\;{\mu}g/kg)$ given into a femoral vein of the normotensive rat produced a dose-dependent depressor response. These ${\beta}-eudesmol-induced$ hypotensive responses were markedly inhibited in the presence of chlorisondamine (1.0 mg/kg, i.v.) or phentolamine (2.0 mg/kg, i.v.). Interestingly, the infusion of ${\beta}-eudesmol$ (1.0 mg/kg/30min) into a femoral vein made a significant reduction in pressor responses induced by intravenous norepinephrine. Furthermore, the phenylephrine $(10^{-5}\;M)-induced$ contractile responses were depressed in the presence of high concentrations of ${\beta}-eudesmol\;(10{\sim}40\;{\mu}g/ml)$, but not affected in low concentration of ${\beta}-eudesmol\;(2.5{\sim}5\;{\mu}g/ml)$. Also, high potassium $(5.6{\times}10^{-2}\;M)-induced$ contractile responses were greatly inhibited in the presence of ${\beta}-eudesmol\;(10{\sim}40\;{\mu}g/ml)$ in a dose-dependent fashion. Taken together, these results obtained from the present study demonstrate that intravenous ${\beta}-eudesmol$ causes a dose-dependent depressor action in the anesthetized rat at least partly through the blockade of vascular adrenergic ${\alpha}_1-receptors$, in addition to the some unknown mechanism of direct vasorelaxation.

The pharmacological actions of ambrein were investigated alone or in combination as a pretreatment with agonists (adrenaline, noradrenaline, acetylcholine, histamine, nicotine), antagonists (atropine, atenolol) and calcium channel blocker (verapamil) in vivo in anaesthetized SWR rats using blood pressure, heart rate and myocardial contractility as parameters. Ambrein in the dose range of 50-200 mg/kg to the normotensive anaesthetized rats demonstrated negative chronotropic effect and increased the myocardial contractility significantly. At the mid dose (100 mg/kg) this increase in contractile force was 36% and 44% above the normal at 30 min and 60 min intervals post-treatment, respectively. Both of the lower and high doses (50 mg/kg and 200 mg/kg) had similar effects. Furthermore, this contractile response was dose related. Also, this compound produced a considerable increase in myocardial contractility when used as a pretreatment with some agonists and antagonists. The results on blood pressure did not show a considerable change when ambrein was used alone. However, ambrein pretreatment at the dose of 100 mg/kg did not block the effects of adrenaline, noradrenaline, isoprenaline and acetylcholine on heart rate and blood pressure. On the other hand, this pretreatment attenuated the sympathoadrenal effects of nicotine significantly. Chronotropic and blood pressure changes produced by histamine were also inhibited by ambrein pretreatment. This pretreatment significantly reversed the effects of atenolol but failed to demonstrate any change in the negative chronotropic, inotropic and hypotensive responses induced by verapamil. It is concluded that ambrein induced nonselective dose dependent antagonism of the effects of some agonists and antagonists require contribution of some neuromediators. However, the positive isotropic effects of ambrein possibly involve the enhancement of slow Ca channels and/or activation of ${\beta}-adrenergic$ receptors in the heart. At this moment it is difficult to explain the exact mode of action of ambrein and the studies dealing with Ca channel blocker and adrenergic blocker followed by ambrein may help to define the factors which contribute to its positive inotropic effects.

Haloperidol, a butyrophenone, was synthetized by Janssen and introduced for the treatment of psychosis. Although structurally different from the phenothiazines, the butyrophenones share many of their pharmacological properties, such as inhibition of conditioned avoidance response, blocking effect of amphetamine reaction, producing catalepsy, antishock effect and protection against the lethal effects of catecholalmines. Chlorpromazine can lower the arterial blood pressure through its adrenergic blocking activity, its direct effect in relaxing vascular smooth muscle, its direct effect in depressing the myocardium and its action in a complex manner on the central nervous system. In the case of haloperidol, however, was not clarified the mechanism of lowering the blood pressure. The present paper describes the effects of haloperidol on cardiovascular system to investigate the mechanisms of its actions on the arterial blood pressure. The results are followings; 1. In anesthetized cats, intravenous administration of haloperidol and chlorpromazine in the dose of 0.1mg/kg produced a slight decrease in the blood pressure, which followed by complete recovery within $30{\sim}60$ minutes. In the dose of 3mg/kg, however, both produced an abrupt and marked decrease of the blood pressure, which followed by delayed recovery. 2. Haloperidol in the dose ranges of 0.1mg to 3.0mg/kg tended to produce the heart rate slowing in the cats, while chlorpromazine has no effect on the rate. 3. Following administration of haloperidol or chlorpromazine, epinephrine reversal in the arterial blood pressure was observed in the cat, however the responses of norepinephrine and acetylcholine were little affected. 4. In the isolated rabbit atrium the contractility was depressed by haloperidol in the doses over 0.5mg per 100ml, but the rate was not affected. In contrast, the epinephrine-induced contractility was not depressed after haloperidol treatment. However, the increased rate of atrium by epinephrine was partially blocked after haloperidol. 5. In the isolated rabbit aortic strip, epinephrine-induced contraction was blocked by haloperidol. With the above results, it may be concluded that the hypotensive effect of haloperidol was largely due to ${\alpha}$-adrenergic blocking properties and the direct effect in depressing the myocardium as well as its action on central nervous system.

미주신경절단 가토에서 니코틴성약물인 nicotine과 DMPP뿐아니라 무스카린성 약물인 muscarine과 bethanechol은 측뇌실내 투여로 모두 혈압상승작용을 나타냈다. Nicotine과 DMPP에 대한 승압반응은 측뇌실내 mecamylamine처리로 현저히 감약되었으나 측뇌실내 pirenzepine처리에 의해서는 영향받지 않았고, muscarine과 bethanechol에 대한 승압반응은 pirenzepin에 의해서는 억제되나 mecamylamine에 의해서는 영향받지 않았다. 이는 뇌내의 니코틴성 수용체 및 무스카린성 수용체가 모두 혈압상승에 관여함을 가리키고 있다. Nicotine과 muscarine에 대한 승압반응은 regitine, reserpine, enalapril, saralasin, SK&F-100273, regitine과 enalapril, regitine과 saralasin의 정맥내 처리에 의해서는 억제되지 않았으며 nicotine에 대한 승압반응은 regitine과 SK&F-100273 두약물의 병용처리에 의해서 억제되었고 muscarine에 의한 승압반응은 regitine, enalapril과 SK&F-100273의 세가지 약물의 병용처리에 의해서만 억제되었다. Nicotine이나 muscarine에 의한 혈압상승상태에서 정맥내 regitine의 투여는 혈압하강을 일으켰으나 enalapril이나 SK&F-100273은 혈압하강을 일으키지 못하였다. Enalapril은 regitine처리나 regitine과 SK&F-100273병용처리 가토에서 nicotine에 의해 상승된 혈압을 하강시키지 못하였으나 SK&F-100273은 regitine처리 가토에서 nicotine에 의한 상승된 혈압을 하강시켰다. Enalapril은 이러한 SK&F-100273의 할압하강작용을 강화시키지 못하였다. Enalapril은 regitine 처리 가토에서 muscarine에 의하여 상승된 혈압은 하강시키지 못하였으나, regitine과 SK&F-100273병용처리 가토에서 muscarine에 의해 상승된 혈압은 하강시켰다. SK&F-100273은 regitine처리 가토에서 muscarine에 의해 상승된 혈압을 하강시키지 못했으나 regitine과 enalapril병용처리 가토의 상승된 혈압은 하강시켰다. 이상의 성적은 뇌실내 nicotine에 의한 혈압상승에는 말초에서 교감신경계와 vasopressin이 관여하며 muscarine에 의한 혈압상승에는 교감신경계, vasopressin 및 angiotensin계가 관여함을 시사하고 있다. Regitine의 정상 가토 혈압하강작용은 enalapril이나 SK&F-100273의 단독처리에 의해서는 영향받지 않았으나 이 두약물을 병용처리시에는 유의하게 강화되었고, 이는 가토 동맥압의 유지에 교감신경, renin-angiotensin 및 vasopressin계가 관여함을 시사하고 있다.
