[Neurosensitization in resuscitated animals and its correction with piracetam]. / Neirosensibilizatsiia u reanimirovannykh zhivotnykh i ee korrektsiia piratsetamom.

Study of the immune reactions of the humoral and cellular types in rats, which had suffered terminal condition, has demonstrated the development of sensitization. The degree of the immunological shifts was determined by clinical death duration and by the period of postresuscitation. Injection of piracetam (100 mg/kg, subcutaneously) within the first 10 days after resuscitation noticeably reduced the manifestations of neurosensitization.

Experiments with anesthetized cats demonstrated chlorpromazine (2 mg/kg) to pervert the vasopressor action of adrenaline (5 mkg/kg) and ephedrine (2 mg/kg) on the systemic arterial pressure, cerebral and extracerebral tonicity of the vessels. The authors believe that with chlorpromazine pretreatment the adrenomimetics produce a selective stimulation of the beta-adrenergic receptors, this accounting for the observed depressor effect.
