Prejunctional alpha 2-adrenoceptors inhibit nitrergic neurotransmission in horse penile resistance arteries. To study the influence of alpha-adrenergic stimuli on non-adrenergic non-cholinergic (NANC) neurogenic relaxation in isolated horse penile resistance arteries. Methods: Deep intracavernous penile arteries with an internal lumen diameter of 200-500 microns., isolated from the corpus cavernosum of young horses, were mounted in microvascular myographs for isometric tension recording and electrical field stimulation (EFS) of autonomic nerve terminals. Results: In the presence of guanethidine (10(-5) M) and atropine (10(-7) M) tone of the arteries was raised by the thromboxane analogue, U46619. EFS...
Nocardia epididymo-orchitis in an immunosuppressed patient. The immunocompromised patient after organ transplantation is susceptible to unusual and life-threatening infections. We report a case of epididymitis that evolved into testicular nocardiosis after cardiac transplantation. An awareness of the potential for these infections and early diagnosis may prevent extensive morbidity in the post-transplantation patient.
