The influence of anisodamine on the cerebral blood flow in uncompletely ischemic rat brains / 中国药理学通报

ABSTRACT

The influence of anisodamine on the cerebral blood flow in the uncompletely ischemic brains was studied with radioactive biomicrosphere assay. After the bilateral carotid arteries were occluded the cerebral blood flow drawmatically decreased and middle part of the hemisphere had the most severe reduction. Anisodamine 10mg ? kg-1 iv selectively increased the cerebral blood flow in this area and 20mg ? kg-1 increased that in the whole hemisphere. When it was used in the dose of 40mg ? kg-, the increasing effect on the cerebral blood flow became weaker. While the cerebral blood flow decreased, the myocardial blood flow increased significantly after bilateral carotid artery occlusion. Anisodamine 20mg ? kg-1 iv made it further increase and 40mg ? kg-1 iv made it decrease. The cardiac index was not influenced by bilateral carotid artery occlusion and anisodamine 10~20mg ? kg-1 iv, but was significanntly increased by anisodamine 40mg ? kg-1 iv. These results suggested that anisodamine may be used in the treatment of ischemic cerebral diseases and should be used in different doses according to different purposes.
