Some 2-aryl-5-guanidino-(or N-substituted guanidino)-1,3,4-thiadiazoles and closely related analogues were found to lower blood pressure in metacorticoid (DOCA) hypertensive rats. In the unsubstituted guanidines that exhibited low toxicity, optimum activity resulted when the aryl group was a 2-methylphenyl ring (11). Modifications to the guanidine group did not increase antihypertensive activity, but, in the 2-methylphenyl series, the N-n-butyl- and N-(2-methoxyethyl)guanidines (63 and 78) and the related iminoimidazolidine 93 were of comparable activity to that of the unsubstituted guanidine 11. The iminoimidazolidine 93 showed a somewhat longer duration of action than the guanidine derivatives. Preliminary studies in a pithed rat preparation indicated that these thiadiazole derivatives (11, 63, and 93) lowered blood pressure by a direct relaxant effect on vascular smooth muscle.

D003655 Decerebrate State A condition characterized by abnormal posturing of the limbs that is associated with injury to the brainstem. This may occur as a clinical manifestation or induced experimentally in animals. The extensor reflexes are exaggerated leading to rigid extension of the limbs accompanied by hyperreflexia and opisthotonus. This condition is usually caused by lesions which occur in the region of the brainstem that lies between the red nuclei and the vestibular nuclei. In contrast, decorticate rigidity is characterized by flexion of the elbows and wrists with extension of the legs and feet. The causative lesion for this condition is located above the red nuclei and usually consists of diffuse cerebral damage.
