Abstract:
:We investigated the effects of intraperitoneal administration of adrenoceptor antagonists to the hyperthermia and hyperglycemia induced by prostaglandin F2 alpha (50 micrograms) injected into the third cerebral ventricle in anesthetized rats. Phentolamine inhibited the hyperthermia and hyperglycemia induced by prostaglandin F2 alpha. Prazosin inhibited the hyperthermia induced by prostaglandin F2 alpha, while enhancing the hyperglycemia. Yohimbine inhibited the prostaglandin F2 alpha-induced hyperglycemia without an effect on the hyperthermia. Propranolol had no effect on either prostaglandin F2 alpha-induced hyperglycemia or hyperthermia. These observations suggest that the hyperglycemia induced by prostaglandin F2 alpha is regulated by alpha 2-adrenoceptor systems while the hyperthermia is regulated by alpha 1-adrenoceptor systems in rats.
