The relative potencies of (minus) noradrenaline, (minus)-adrenaline, (plus or minus)-isoprenaline and (plus or minus)-salbutamol have been assessed for their positive inotropic and chronotropic actions on kitten isolated atria. These relative potencies have been compared with those obtained for the relative coronary dilator potencies in two preparations. These were intact hearts perfused by Langendorff's method and isolated perfused coronary arteries from the kitten. The relative molar potencies for inotropic effects were noradrenaline 1: adrenaline1: iso-prenaline 7: salbutamol 0.6. The observed ratios for chronotropic effects were not significantly different from those for inotropic effects. The relative potencies of noradrenaline, adrenaline and isoprenaline as myocardial stimulants were similar to their relative potencies as coronary dilators in the intact heart. Similar relative potencies for noradrenaline and isoprenaline were also found in the isolated coronary artery but adrenaline was only one third as active as noradrenaline on this preparation. In both the intact heart and in the isolated coronary artery salbutamol was about one tenth as active as noradrenaline. It was therefore less active relative to noradrenaline as a coronary dilator than as a myocardial stimulant. In spite of these differences in relative potency ratios for myocardial and coronary dilator effects, similar dissociation constants (Kb values) for practolol against isoprenaline were found in driven atria and in isolated coronary arteries. Myocardial and coronary vascular beta-adrenoceptors thus can both be placed in the general classification of beta1-adrenoceptors.
