Abstract:
:The purpose of our study was to determine whether a toxic arrhythmogenic dose of digitalis administered to an in vivo preparation would affect the neuronal uptake of norepinephrine, serotonin and dopamine in brain tissue and norepinephrine in cardiac tissue. This was investigated by intoxicating anesthetized cats with deslanoside, removing cardiac and brain tissue at the onset of ventricular fibrillation, and examining the ability of brain tissue to accumulate [3H]-NE, [3H]-T-HT and [3H]-DA and cardiac tissue to accumulate [3H]-NE. It was found that deslanoside inhibited uptake of [3H]-NE into the left ventricle and [3H]5-HT into the area postrema. These selective effects may reflect greater blood flow to these regions or different sensitivities of the transport mechanisms for these amines. This inhibition of uptake into both left ventricular tissue and area postrema may contribute to some of the cardiovascular and emetic effects seen with digitalis drugs.
