1 Antagonism of Hypotensive and Bradycardic Effects of Centrally Administered Guanfacine by Metiamide in Anesthetized Rabbits Takeshi OTORII, M.D., Ph.D., Kazuhiro OHKUBO, and Kenichi SUZUKI SUMMA In anesthetized rabbits, intracerebroventricular (ICV) administration of the ƒ -adrenoceptor agonist, guanfacine, like clonidine, elicited dose-related falls in arterial blood pressure and heart rate. ICV pretreatment with the histamine H2-receptor antagonist, metiamide, significantly reduced the hypotensive and bradycardic responses caused by ICV injection of either guanfacine or clonidine. The present results seem to indicate that the antagonistic effect of metiamide against either guanfacine or clonidine is probably due to its ƒ -adrenoceptor blocking action rather than its histamine H2-receptor blocking action, suggesting that these interactions might be of central origin. Additional Indexing Words: Guanfacine Clonidine Metiamide Blood pressure Heart rate Central regulation ƒ -adrenoceptor Histamine H2-receptor HE cardiovascular effects of guanfacine, an antihypertensive phenylguanidine derivative,1),2) resemble those of clonidine in many respects.3),4) It has been reported that some of the hypotensive action of clonidine is due to a central mechanism in which cerebral pre- or postsynaptic ƒ -adrenoceptors play an important role.5)-11) Clonidine-induced activation of these central ƒ -adrenoceptors results in a reduction of the sympathetic tone and, thus, a fall in blood pressure and heart rate. On the basis of its mechanism of action, guanfacine is classified as a central ƒ -adrenoceptor stimulant like clonidine. Recently, however, it has been proposed that the hypotensive effect of clonidine is at least partly due to an activation of central histamine H2-receptors, since ICV administration of the specific histamine From the Department of Pharmacology, Yamagata University School of Medicine, Yamagata, J apan.

Heart July 85 H2-receptor antagonist, metiamide, antagonized the hypotensive effect of clonidine in rats.12)-14) The present study was undertaken to compare the antagonistic action of metiamide against the hypotensive and bradycardic effects of guanfacine and those of clonidine in anesthetized rabbits. METHODS Albino rabbits of either sex weighing Kg, were anesthetized with urethane ( Gm/Kg, s.c.) and tracheotomized to allow spontaneous breathing. The animals were mounted in a stereotaxic apparatus and a stainless steel needle through which the drug solutions were applied intracerebroventricularly was implanted into the left ventricle according to the stereotaxic atlas of Sawyer et al.15) The arterial blood pressure was measured directly from the left carotid artery by means of a pressure transducer (Nihon Kohden MPU-0.5) and the heart rate was recorded by using the pressure pulse to trigger a cardiotachometer (Nihon Kohden RT-5). Drugs used: Guanfacine hydrochloride (Sandoz) and clonidine hydrochloride (Boehringer Ingelheim) were dissolved in 0.9% saline solution. Metiamide (Smith, Kline & French) was dissolved in 0.1N HCl and then diluted with 0.9% saline solution, as needed. The volume of drug solution to be injected was always adjusted to 0.1ml. An injection of the control solution (0.9% saline solution) had no significant effect on blood pressure and heart rate. RESULTS 1. Effects of guanfacine and clonidine on arterial blood pressure and heart rate As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, in anesthetized rabbits ICV injection of guanfacine (3-100ƒÊg/rabbit) and clonidine ( ƒêg/rabbit) elicited doserelated decreases in mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate. Timeresponse curves for the blood pressure and heart rate falls induced by guanfacine (30ƒÊg) and clonidine (3ƒÊg) are illustrated in Figs.3 and 4, respectively. Guanfacine, in a dose of 30ƒÊg, produced a fall in mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate from 5-10min after ICV injection. The maximal fall in blood pressure was observed 60-90min after injection and the hypotensive effect persisted for 2-4 hours. ICV injection of clonidine, in a dose of 3ƒÊg, produced nearly the same maximal fall in blood pressure as that of 30ƒÊg of guanfacine, although the duration of effect was shorter with clonidine

The bradycardic effect of guanfacine, in a dose of 30ƒÊg, was less than that of 3ƒÊg of clonidine, while nearly the same maximal fall in blood pressure was observed for the two drugs in the respective doses. 2. Effects of guanfacine and clonidine on arterial blood pressure and heart rate after pretreatment with metiamide ICV pretreatment with the histamine He-receptor antagonist, metiamide, was carried out 20min before ICV injection of either guanfacine or clonidine. The administration of metiamide (0.8mg) alone caused only a slight rise in the mean arterial blood pressure of about 10-15min duration, and at the time of administration of either guanfacine or clonidine the blood pressure was not significantly different from the pre-dose control level. The administration of metiamide (0.8mg) alone did not significantly affect the heart rate. Metiamide pretreatment caused a significant inhibition of the fall in mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate induced by either guanfacine or clonidine. As shown in Figs.1 and 2, metiamide pretreatment caused an

Figs.3 and 4 illustrate, respectively, the time-response curves of the hypotensive and bradycardic effects of guanfacine (30ƒÊg) and clonidine (3ƒÊg) changed by ICV pretreatment with metiamide (0.8mg). DISCUSSION We have previously reported that a fall in blood pressure and heart rate caused by ICV injection of either guanfacine or clonidine was inhibited by ICV pretreatment with the ƒ -adrenoceptor antagonist, phentolamine, in anesthetized rabbits.16) These findings suggest that presynaptic and/or postsynaptic ƒ -adrenoceptors in the central nervous system may play an important role in hypotension and bradycardia induced by guanfacine as well as by clonidine. In the present study, we demonstrated that in anesthe-

Heart J uly 85 tized rabbits the hypotensive and bradycardic effects caused by ICV injection of guanfacine as well as by clonidine were reduced by ICV pretreatment with the histamine H2-receptor antagonist, metiamide. These findings are consistent with those on clonidine of other researchers, who suggested that this drug might act on several neuronal pathways containing, at least, ƒ -adrenoceptors and histamine H2-receptors in the central nervous system.12)-14) Thus, the present study gives support for the same interaction between guanfacine or clonidine and metiamide as mentioned above, suggesting that this interaction might be of central origin. There are several reports that clonidine is not only an ƒ -adrenoceptor agonist, but a histamine H2-receptor agonist with respect to the contractile response of the isolated heart17) and atria18),19) in the guinea pig and on gastric acid secretion in the anesthetized rat.18),20),21) From these reports, it is thought that the stimulation of histamine H2-receptors may be implicated in the cardiovascular effects of clonidine. However, their reports indicate that the intrinsic activity of clonidine at histamine H2-receptors mediating contractile response of heart or gastric acid secretion is much lower than that of histamine, indicating that the doses of clonidine needed to activate the histamine H2-receptors would be far larger than those needed to activate ƒ -adrenoceptors. In addition, Finch and Hicks showed that in rats ICV injection of histamine elicited a rise in blood pressure and heart rate, which might be mediated by histamine H2-receptors,22) and that in rats the administration of 4-methylhistamine, a selective histamine H2-receptor agonist, into the posterior hypothalamus did not produce a fall in blood pressure and heart rate.23) Therefore, it is probable that the hypotensive and bradycardic effects caused by ICV injection of clonidine are not involved in a stimulation of histamine H2- receptors, even if clonidine is a partial agonist of the histamine H2-receptor. On the other hand, recently, a few histamine H2-receptor antagonists have been reported to possess some ƒ -adrenoceptor antagonistic activity in various organ tissues.24)-27) From the above mentioned observations, the present results seem to indicate that the antagonistic effect of metiamide against either guanfacine or clonidine is probably due to its ƒ -adrenoceptor blocking action rather than its histamine H2-receptor blocking action. Especially, it is reasonable to claim that guanfacine-induced hypotension and bradycardia are elicited mainly via an activation of the ƒ -adrenoceptors in the central nervous system. Although in the various experiments reported by previous investigators,2)-4),18) guanfacine was found to show the same pharmacological profile as clonidine, there was no evidence suggesting that unlike clonidine this drug might activate the histamine H2-receptors. For example, Medgett
