FURTHER ANALYSIS OF INHIBITORY EFFECTS OF PROPRANOLOL AND LOCAL ANAESTHETICS ON THE CALCIUM CURRENT IN Helix NEURONES

Abstract: ICa: the ratio of depression of the ICa was almost equivalent to that of the agent applied externally.5 The results provide evidence that propranolol inhibits ICa in a noncompetitive manner with Ca2+ at the cell membrane, and suggest that the agents may occupy the receptor site in the Ca2+-channel somewhere between the outer surface and inner phase of the membrane.

“…However, the depressant action of local anesthetics is not exerted selectively on the Na + current. Lidocaine at clinically relevant concentrations has been shown to inhibit inward Ca 2 + currents in Helix gan-glionic neurons 102 and in frog dorsal root ganglionic cells. 1 0 3 A good correlation between local anesthetic potencies to inhibit HVA Ca 2 + currents and their anesthetic potencies implies that the inhibition of Ca 2 + influx through L/N-type VDCCs may contribute to spinal anesthesia.…”

“…On the other hand, Charles et al 18 showed that subcutaneous coadministration of verapamil and lidocaine shortened duration of local anesthesia in comparison to the lidocaine only. Propranolol demonstrates local anesthetic effect comparable to that of lidocaine by decreasing sodium and calcium influx 19 . The decrease of neuronal excitability and nociception caused by β-adrenergic receptors blockers was also proved, associated with suppression of voltage sensitive calcium and sodium channels activity reduction of intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate 19 levels and decrease of the adenylcyclase 20 activity.…”

“…In 1979, Hashimoto et al (6) reported that the calcium-current of the cardiac cell was inhibited by propranolol. Furthermore, Akaike et al (7,8) observed the inhibitory action of propranolol on the calcium-current in Helix neurones. Thus, also in coronary arterial smooth muscle, it is fully expected that propranolol may impair the calcium influx.…”

“…Recently, it has been suggested that the calcium-current of the cardiac cell (6) and the Helix neurone (7,8) is also inhibited by propranolol. Thus, propranolol has a possible inhibitory action on the calcium channel in addition to the sodium-channel.…”
