This study was undertaken to determine whether endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF) modulates the pulmonary and systemic hemodynamic responses to massive sympathetic nervous system (SNS) activation and, in so doing, also modulates the degree of…

We tested the possibility that neuropeptide Y (NPY) may contribute to the pulmonary hypertension that occurs after massive sympathetic activation produced by intracisternal veratrine administration in the chloralose-anesthetized dog. In six dogs,…

We tested the hypothesis that cocaine-induced impairment of left ventricular function results in cardiogenic pulmonary edema. Mongrel dogs, anesthetized with alpha-chloralose, were injected with two doses of cocaine (5 mg/kg iv) 27 min apart. Cocaine…
