Abstract:
:This study compared the bronchodilator effect in experimental canine asthma of dyphylline administered by aerosol and intravenous routes in doses producing equivalent concentrations of the drug in the plasma. Pulmonary resistance (RL) was calculated from simultaneous measurements of pressure and flow during fixed-volume controlled ventilation at the same peak flow and corrected for elastic recoil pressure. Dynamic compliance (Cdyn) was calculated by dividing tidal volume by the change in pressure measured between points of zero flow. Concentrations of dyphylline in the plasma were measured using high-performance liquid chromatographic techniques. Rates of infusion of dyphylline were determined from values for clearance observed in preliminary experiments with intravenous injection. Prior to exposure to antigen, RL and Cdyn were not significantly different in control and dyphylline-treated dogs. Following challenge, with antigen RL increased by 8.3 +/- 2.6 times (mean +/- SE) in untreated dogs but only by 2.4 +/- 0.4 times in dyphylline treated dogs. Levels of dyphylline in the plasma averaged 4.2 micrograms/ml +/- 0.6 micrograms/ml at the end of the ten-minute period of aerosol administration and remained at that level for 60 minutes. At equivalent plasma levels (4.3 micrograms/ml +/- 0.3 micrograms/ml), infusion of dyphylline did not significantly after the response to Ascaris antigen, whereas dyphylline administered by the aerosol route markedly attenuated the response.
