Effect of YM435, a dopamine DA1 receptor agonist, in a canine model of ischemic acute renal failure.

1. The effects of (-)-(S)-4-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)- 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline-7,8-diol monohydrochloride monohydrate (YM435), a dopamine DA1 receptor agonist, were evaluated in a canine model of ischemic acute renal failure (ARF). 2.

Renal effect of YM435, a new dopamine D1 receptor agonist, in anesthetized dogs.

The renal effects of YM435 ((-)-(S)-4-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-7,8-dihydroxy -1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline hydrochloride hydrate), a dopamine D1 receptor agonist, were investigated in anesthetized dogs. Intravenous infusion of YM435 (0.1-3 micrograms/kg per min) increased renal blood flow and decreased mean blood pressure in a dose-dependent manner with little effect on heart rate.

Hemodynamic characterization of YM435, a novel dopamine DA1 receptor agonist, in anesthetized dogs.

The cardiovascular effects of YM435, a dopamine DA1 receptor agonist, were compared with those of dopamine in open-chest anesthetized dogs. Intravenous infusion of YM435 (0.1-3 microg/kg/min) increased renal blood flow and cardiac output and reduced renal vascular resistance and total peripheral vascular resistance, with a decrease in mean blood pressure, in a dose-dependent manner, with little change in heart rate.
