We have studied the effects of premedication with either atropine or pyrilamine on the responses of the blood pressure and the permeability of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in normotensive (WKY) or… (More)
Histamine has been shown previously to cause dose-dependent systemic hypotension and concurrent alterations in the permeability of the blood-brain barrier of rats. The purpose of the present study… (More)

Previous studies suggested histamine receptors mediate changes in the cerebrovascular permeability of rats. To test this, we investigated the effects of impromidine, a specific agonist at the… (More)
Wistar Kyoto (WKY) and spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) rats were given saline, histamine (1.25, 2.5 or 5.0 micrograms/kg) or acetylcholine (1.0 or 2.0 micrograms/kg). Both agents caused a… (More)
