1. 4-Aminopyridine and 3,4-diaminopyridine produced concentration-dependent contraction on guinea-pig isolated ileum incubated in Tyrode solution. The EC30 values were 1.14 x 10(-4) and 1.39 x 10(-4) M, respectively. 2. Calcium channel blockers such as verapamil, diltiazem, nifedipine, flunarizine, and lanthanum chloride antagonized the contracting effect induced by 4-aminopyridine and 3,4-diaminopyridine in guinea-pig isolated ileum. 3. Diazoxide and atropine sulphate behaved similarly as antagonists of the contracting effect induced by 4-aminopyridine and 3,4-diaminopyridine in guinea-pig isolated ileum. 4. It is concluded that the aminopyridines exert their effects through the release of acetylcholine from parasympathetic nerve terminals.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007082 Ileum The distal and narrowest portion of the SMALL INTESTINE, between the JEJUNUM and the ILEOCECAL VALVE of the LARGE INTESTINE.
D007811 Lanthanum The prototypical element in the rare earth family of metals. It has the atomic symbol La, atomic number 57, and atomic weight 138.91. Lanthanide ion is used in experimental biology as a calcium antagonist; lanthanum oxide improves the optical properties of glass.

D009119 Muscle Contraction A process leading to shortening and/or development of tension in muscle tissue. Muscle contraction occurs by a sliding filament mechanism whereby actin filaments slide inward among the myosin filaments.

D009130 Muscle, Smooth Unstriated and unstriped muscle, one of the muscles of the internal organs, blood vessels, hair follicles, etc. Contractile elements are elongated, usually spindle-shaped cells with centrally located nuclei. Smooth muscle fibers are bound together into sheets or bundles by reticular fibers and frequently elastic nets are also abundant.

D009543 Nifedipine A potent vasodilator agent with calcium antagonistic action. It is a useful anti-anginal agent that also lowers blood pressure.

D010275 Parasympathetic Nervous System The craniosacral division of the autonomic nervous system. The cell bodies of the parasympathetic preganglionic fibers are in brain stem nuclei and in the sacral spinal cord. They synapse in cranial autonomic ganglia or in terminal ganglia near target organs. The parasympathetic nervous system generally acts to conserve resources and restore homeostasis, often with effects reciprocal to the sympathetic nervous system.

D010276 Parasympatholytics Agents that inhibit the actions of the parasympathetic nervous system. The major group of drugs used therapeutically for this purpose is the MUSCARINIC ANTAGONISTS.
