  • Key results: The α 2 -adrenoceptor agonist UK14, 304 caused low-maximum constriction that was inhibited by rauwolscine (3 × 10 -8 M) but not by the selective α 1 -adrenoceptor antagonist prazosin (10 -7 M). Concentration-effect curves to phenylephrine, cirazoline or noradrenaline were unaffected by rauwolscine but were inhibited by prazosin, which was more effective at high compared with low levels of constriction.
