OUABAGENIN

K. K. Chen 1, Robert C. Anderson 1, and Harold M. Worth 1

1 The Lilly Research Laboratories, Eli Lilly and Company, Indianapolis 6, Indiana

Ouabagenin is approximately one-half as active on the heart as ouabain in cats, and about one-third as active in frogs.

Ouabagenin is more effective than ouabain in causing vomiting of non-anesthetized cats, weight for weight. The emetic dose is therefore no measure of the cardiac activity when different compounds are compared.

Unlike digitoxigenin, ouabagenin and periplogenin do not cause convulsions in cats or frogs.
