in
m0BLEM;, Studies by one of the authors showed that hydroxytryptamine
_RT) (= serotonin) caused pulmonary vasoconstriction in the anaesthet,=
Ized cat° An investigation was therefore made of the action of HT on
_e catQs lungs perfused with blood and the effects of DHE_ LSD and
adrenaline o
__._
The method employed was similar to that used by DALY (Quart oJo
e_poPhysiolo28_55%19_8)
for perfusing monkey_s lungs°
"
m_SULTS_ In
+_c
preliminary e_phs_ the usual effect of HT was a fall
_
carotid pressure_ sometimes '_bilowed by a rise° The initial depress_
er effect was considered due to an.increase in the resistance in the
_nary
circulation° The exptso on the perfused luugs confirmed that
Y%Me rise in pulmonary pressure was ,due to direct action of the pulmon_
-ary
vessels° The ioao in.joof HT ca_sed both bronchoco_str_ct_on and
vaso._constrictiono The vasomotor response was variable°
Adrenaline injected _
