1 The effect of adenosine on cardiac biosynthesis of prostacyclin (PGI2) was investigated. Rabbit hearts were perfused according to Langendorff at controlled pressure (with or without theophylline), or at controlled flow. The content of 6‐keto‐prostaglandinlflt (6‐keto‐PGF1α, metabolite of PGI2) in the coronary effluent under basal conditions and during infusion of adenosine was determined using a highly specific radioimmunoassay. 2 In other experiments, rings of rabbit aorta were incubated with or without adenosine and the production of 6‐keto‐PGF1α was analysed as above. 3 Administration of adenosine (10 μm) to hearts perfused at controlled pressure increased the coronary flow by up to 38%. The peak concentration of 6‐keto‐PGF1α in the effluent exceeded the control by 177% (P < 0.01), and the total efflux of 6‐keto‐PGF1α exceeded the control by 179% (P < 0.001). Theophylline (50 μm) reduced these effects of adenosine by 23%, 43% and 51%, respectively, without influencing the uptake of adenosine into the heart. 4 When adenosine (1–10 μm) was administered to hearts perfused at controlled flow, a dose‐dependent decrease in the perfusion pressure, by 27% and 44% respectively, was observed. In parallel, the resulting increase in 6‐keto‐PGF1α efflux was considerably lower (49% (P < 0.05) and 43% (NS), respectively). A similar decrease in perfusion pressure induced in the absence of adenosine decreased the efflux of 6‐keto‐PGF1α, by 15% (P < 0.01) and 32% (P < 0.001), respectively. 5 Addition of adenosine (1–10 μm) to incubates of rabbit aortic rings did not significantly affect the concentration of 6‐keto‐PGF1α in the incubation medium in comparison with control. 6 We conclude that adenosine stimulates rabbit heart PGI2 formation, mainly by an action related to the vasodilator effect of the nucleoside.
