Pharmacological Analysis of Positive Chrono and Inotropic Responses To Pharmacological Analysis of Positive Chrono and Inotropic Responses to Denopamine (TA-064) in Dog Cross-Circulated Atrial and Ventricular Preparations KunioAKAHANE, Yasuyuki FURUKAWA, Yasuyuki KARASAWA, Lei-MingREN and ShigetoshiCHIBA* Departmentof Pharmacology,Shinshu University School of Medicine, Matsumoto390, Japan AcceptedSeptember 21, 1989 Abstract-Positive chrono and inotropic responses to denopamine (TA-064, (-) (R)-1-(p-hydroxyphenyl)-2-[(3,4-dimethoxyphenethyl)amino] ethanol), a new and orally active cardiotonic agent, were investigated in the canine isolated right atrial or left ventricular preparation which was cross-circulated with blood from another support dog. Denopamine dose-dependently increased the sinus rate, right atrial and left ventricular contractile force. Denopamine was one to two orders of mag nitude less potent than isoproterenol. The positive chrono and inotropic effects of denopamine in isolated, blood-perfused right atria were dose-dependently in hibited by treatment with propranolol and atenolol. The effects of denopamine were only slightly attenuated by ICI 118,551 in doses which completely suppressed the positive chrono and inotropic effects of procaterol. The increases in sinus rate and atrial contractility induced by denopamine were partially but significantly attenuated by treatment with imipramine in a dose which suppressed the effects of tyramine and potentiated the effects of norepinephrine. These results indicate that denopamine is a highly selective beta-1 adrenoceptor agonist in isolated, blood perfused dog heart preparations, and they also suggest a mild catecholamine releasing activity through tyramine-like action in isolated right atria.

This p-adrenoceptor subtype has been identified in adipose and gastrointestinal tissue, as well as skeletal muscle and airway smooth muscle. The work presented in this thesis demonstrates the presence of atypical p-adrenoceptors in rat vasculature. The present in vitro results show that relaxations to isoprenaline in the rat thoracic aorta, mesenteric and pulmonary artery, are antagonized by propranolol in a non-competitive manner.

We studied the effect of the cardiotonic agent denopamine on the life span of cardiomyopathic hamsters (BIO 14.6 strain) in the heart failure period. Non-treated hamsters started to die at 40 weeks of age, and their survival rate decreased to 23.8% at the age of 65 weeks. Hamsters treated with denopamine (400 ppm in diet) from 36 weeks of age did not die until the age of 52 weeks, except in cases of accidental death. The survival rate of this group at 65 weeks of age was about 40%. Survival rates of these 2 groups were sig- nificantly different (P<0.05) when animals with accidental death were excluded. To elucidate the mecha- nism of the effect of denopamine, we performed several experiments after dietary treatment with denopamine for 4 to 6 weeks from 37 weeks of age. Denopamine treatment lowered plasma levels of noradrenaline and dopamine (P <0.05), but affected neither the cardiac contractility nor the j3-adrenoceptor density. In sum- mary, denopamine significantly decreases the mortality of cardiomyopathic hamsters.
