[Effect of synthetic protease inhibitor on the sphincter of Oddi function in dogs].

Fundamental study in dogs have shown that the synthetic protease inhibitor has pharmaceutical properties characterized by effect on motility of the sphincter of Oddi. Synthetic protease inhibitors, gabexate mesilate and nafamostat mesilate have effects on motility of the sphincter of Oddi in dogs. The motor effect of synthetic protease inhibitor on the sphincter of Oddi has been investigated by manometric evaluation. Immediately after intravenous administration of gabexate mesilate (5, 10, 50, and 100 mg/kg/h) the motility of the sphincter of Oddi was inhibited dose-dependently, on the other hand after intravenous administration of nafamostat mesilate (0.5, 1, and 5 mg/kg/h) motility of the sphincter of Oddi was accelerated. Therefore it was suggested that these results shown some considerable problems in clinical use.
