Physalaemin has been reported as one of the most potent vasodilator and hypotensive peptides (1-4). In spite of these studies, however, the effect of the peptide on splanchnic circulation is not known precisely. In the present study, the effect of synthetic physalaemin on superior mesenteric arterial blood flow, portal venous blood flow and pancreatic capillary blood flow was investigated in dogs. Dose dependent increases of superior mesenteric arterial blood flow and portal venous blood flow were induced in response to physalaemin (0.1-10.0 ng/kg). Superior mesenteric arterial blood flow and portal venous blood flow attained maximal increases of 77 +/- 8.9% and 70 +/- 8.6%, respectively, at a dose of 5 ng/kg. Physalaemin caused a dose-related decrease in systemic arterial blood pressure. Pancreatic capillary blood flow did not show significant change with the administration of physalaemin. These data suggest that physalaemin may play some physiological roles in the regulation of splanchnic circulation.
