    Abstract:
    Effects of CD-349 (2-nitratopropyl 3-nitratopropyl 2,6-dimethyl-4-(3-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate) on cerebral circulation and metabolism were examined measuring cerebral oxygen and carbon dioxide tension (BrPO2, BrPCO2), pH (BrpH) and mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) in cats. CD-349 of 10 micrograms/kg infused into the carotid artery produced a remarkable and long-lasting decrease in systemic blood pressure, whereas BrPO2, BrPCO2 and BrpH did not change significantly. The previous studies have already demonstrated that CD-349 increases cerebral blood flow (CBF). In addition to the improvement of the cerebral circulation, the present study suggests that C-349 may augment cerebral metabolism.
