  • Look Inside

This study was performed as part of a series of investigations into the relation between cerebral vasospasm following subarachnoid hemorrhage and the sympathetic nervous system. We studied the effect of phenoxybenzamine chloride (POB) and prazosin hydrochloride (Prazosin) on the cerebral vasoconstriction in the basilar arteries of cats in-duced by application of oxyhemoglobin (Oxy-Hb), noradrenalin (Nor) and prostaglandin F(PGF).

Adult cats were anesthetized with intramuscular pentobarbital and maintained on a respirator through a tracheostomy. By the transclival ap-proach, a bone window was formed in the clivus, and the dura was opened, exposing the basilar artery. A cannule was inserted into the subarach-noid space, and through it, Oxy-Hb, Nor and PGF were injected. The sequential changes in caliber of the basilar artery were measured using photography.

First, we determined the doses of POB and Prazosin necessory for decreasing the vasoconstric-tion induced by Nor, and 20 mg/kg of POB and 10 mg/kg of Prazosin were found to decrease the vasoconstriction induced by 10-3M Nor, statistical-ly. Second, we investigated the effect of 20 mg/kg of POB and O. 5 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg of Prazosin on the cerebral vasoconstriction induced by Oxy-Hb or PGF. POB (20 mg/kg) was infused for 2 hours before the application of Oxy-Hb or PGF. Prazosin was given intravenously. In the first group, 0.02% Prazosin (0.5 mg/kg) was adminis-tered intravenously for 1. 5 hours before the ap-plication of Oxy-Hb or PGF. In the second group, 1.5 hours elapsed between the biginning of Prazosin (10mg/kg) infusion and the application of Oxy-Hb or PGF. The same doses of POB and Prazosin which decreased the vasoconstriction induced by Nor also slightly inhibited the con-striction induced by Oxy-Hb but not to a statisti-cally significant extent. However, POB and Prazosin, like Oxy-Hb, tended to decrease the vasoconstriction induced by PGF. It is thus pos-sible that alpha-adrenergic receptor blockers work as so-called generalized suppressors.

We conclude that Oxy-Hb does not act as an adrenergic receptor agonist, i. e., the relation between the vasospasm induced by Oxy-Hb and the sympathetic nervous system is not significant.
