title: Effects of 5-([2-(diethylamino)-ethyl]amino)-3-phenyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole dihydrochloride (DEPO) on cardiac functions and myocardial metabolism of the dog.
abstract: Effects of 5-([2-(diethylamino)-ethyl]amino)-3-phenyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole (DEPO) on cardiac functions and myocardial metabolism were examined using the heart in vivo and the isolated perfused heart of dogs. In the heart in vivo DEPO i.v. produced dose-dependent decreases in coronary perfusion pressure (PP), heart rate (HR), left ventricular pressure (LVP), dP/dt max of LVP and coronary vascular resistance (VR). DEPO i.c. dose-dependently increased left circumflex coronary flow (LCCF) and decreased PP, LVP and dP/dt max of LVP, but did not change HR. In the isolated perfused heart, DEPO induced a marked increase in coronary blood flow (CBF) and depressed HR and myocardial contractile force. Myocardial oxygen consumption and myocardial redox potential were not significantly changed. DEPO could not modify the effects of isoproterenol, adenosine and reactive hyperaemia on the heart. The results suggest that DEPO may have a coronary vasodilating action and some direct inhibitory actions on the heart.
