Test 1 : Cardiotonic action: Electrically stimulating isolated guinea pig left atria Male Hartley guinea pigs weighing 350-500 g were used. The hearts were excised from the animals. The left atria were dissected from the hearts and mounted in an organ bath. The bath was filled with 50 ml oxygenated (95% 0 2 and 5% CO p ) Krebs-Henseleit solution at 30°C of the following composition: NaCl 118 mM; KC1 4.7 mM; CaCl 2 '2H 2 0 2.5 mM; MgS0 4 '7H 2 0 1.2 mM; KHgPO^ 1.2 mM; NaHC0 3 25.0 mM; glucose 10.0 mM. The atria were stimulated by square wave pulses of 3 msec duration and a voltage ranging from 1.2-fold to 1.5-fold of the threshold at a frequency of 6θ/min with an electric stimulator. Resting tension was adjusted to 0.5 g and contraction was recorded on the Polygraph Systems with a force-displacement transducer. All preparations were allowed to equilibrate with the bath medium for 90 to 120 min. The test compounds were added cumulatively to the bath and the concentrations causing a 50% increase in contractility (EC__>.u) were calculated from the concentration-response curves. The results are shown in Table 2. Table 2 Test 2 : Cardiotonic action: Anesthetized dogs Adult mongrel dogs of either sex weighing 8 to 15 kg were used. The animals were anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital (30 mg/kg, i.v.) and maintained by an intravenous infusion of the anesthetic at a rate of 4 mg/kg per hour. A cuffed endotracheal tube was inserted and an artificial respirator installed. The animals were ventilated with room air in a tidal volume of 20 ml/kg at a rate of 20 brearhs per minute. Cannulae were inserted into the femoral vein for a falling drop of a physiological saline or for an infusion of the anesthetic, and into the femoral artery for measuring arterial blood pressure with a pressure transducer. Heart rate was recorded with a heart rate counter triggered by the R wave of the electrocardiogram (ECG) . ECG in standard lead II was monitored with a bioelectric amplifier. Left ventricular pressure was measured with a catheter tip pressure transducer inserted via the right carotid artery into the left ventricle. Left ventricular dp/dtma_x__. was obtained by an electric differentiator. The compounds were injected through the cannula in the femoral vein at a dose of .0.001-0.3 mg/0.1 ml/kg. The doses producing a 50% increase in LVdp/dt ,_,.„. (ED cn ) were calculated from the dose-response curves. The results are shown in Table 3. Table 3 Test 3 : Inhibition of phosphodiesterase The preparation of different forms of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase from guinea big left ventricular muscles was done by following the procedure of Weishaar, et al. (R. Weishaar, et al. , Biochemical Pharmacology, 35., 787-800, 1986) with the minor modified method of Thompson, et al. (W.J. Thompson, et al. , Advances in Cyclic Nucleotide Research, 10, 69-92, 1979). Briefly, the three active forms of phosphodiesterase (PDE-I, PDE-II , PDE-III) present in the ventricular muscles were discretely eluted from a DEAE- cellulose column (Whatman, DE-52, φ 2.5 x 20 cm) using a continuous 70-800 mM sodium acetate gradient. The phosphodiesterase activity was assayed by minor modifications of the method described by Furutani et al. (Y. Furutani, et al., Journal of Antibiotics, 2 _, 558-560, 1975). ~> Briefly, 1 μM -Η -cAMP was hydrolyzed by the phosphodiesterase and the unhydrolyzed H -cAMP which was separated from the formed 5'-AMP by a dry alumina (Merck, activity 1, neutral) was counted by a liquid scintillation counter.. The concentrations causing a 50% inhibition of the phosphodiesterase activity (IC_ 0 ) were calculated from the concentration-inhibition curves. The results are shown in Table 4. Test 4 : Acute toxicity The acute toxicity of the test compounds was studied in male mice after oral administration of a single dose. The animals were observed for 7 days and the mortality was determined. The results are shown in table 5- Table 5
