This study, conducted on isolated guinea pig ileum, was designed to establish the mechanism of presynaptic alpha 2-adrenoreceptor blockade by the tetramine disulfides, benextramine and pyrextramine.

The recovery of post- and extrasynaptic alpha 2-adrenergic receptor-binding sites was studied in vivo in male golden hamsters after treatment with an irreversible alpha-adrenoceptor antagonist benextramine, a tetramine disulfide that possesses a high affinity for alpha 2-binding sites.

1 The presynaptic alpha-adrenoceptor blocking activity of the newly synthesized alpha-adrenoceptor blocking drug, benextramine, was evaluated in the isolated left atrium of the guinea-pig heart. 2 High-voltage stimulation increased the force of contraction of electrically driven atrial strips, presumably by releasing noradrenaline from sympathetic nerve endings.
