β-Adrenoceptor-Mediated Relaxation of Carbachol-Pre-Contracted Mouse DetrusorPropping, Stefan, Newe, Manja, Lorenz, Kristina, Wirth, Manfred P., Ravens, Ursula 08 June 2016 (has links) (PDF)
Aims: To study the β-adrenoceptor subtypes involved in the relaxation responses to (-)-isoprenaline in carbachol-pre-contracted (CCh) mouse detrusor muscle with intact and denuded mucosa. Methods: Isolated muscle strips from the urinary bladder of male C57BL6 mice or β2-adrenoceptor knockout mice were pre-contracted with CCh, 1 µM and relaxed with increasing concentrations of the β-adrenoceptor (β-AR) agonist (-)-isoprenaline and forskolin. For estimating the β-AR subtypes involved, subtype-selective receptor blockers were used, that is, CGP 20712A (β1-ARs), ICI 118,551 (β2-ARs), and L748,337 (β3-ARs). Results: Unlike in KCl-pre-contracted muscle, the mucosa did not affect the sensitivity of the relaxation response to (-)-isoprenaline in CCh-pre-contracted murine detrusor strips. Increasing concentrations of (-)-isoprenaline produced a biphasic concentration-relaxation response without any difference both during the presence and absence of mucosa. The relaxation fraction produced by low (-)-isoprenaline concentrations was mediated by β2-AR as evidenced by a shift of the concentration-response curve to higher concentrations with ICI 118,551, but not with CGP 20712A and L748,337, and by the absence of this fraction in β2-AR-KO mice. The relaxation response with low sensitivity to (-)-isoprenaline was not affected by any of the β-AR subtype-selective blockers and was the only response detected in detrusor strips from β2-AR-KO mice. Conclusions: In CCh-pre-contracted mouse detrusor, β2-ARs are responsible for the relaxation component with high sensitivity to (-)-isoprenaline as indicated by the conversion of a biphasic into a monophasic CRC with ICI 118,551 or by its absence in β2-AR KO mice. The mucosa does not impair relaxation under these conditions. / Dieser Beitrag ist mit Zustimmung des Rechteinhabers aufgrund einer (DFG-geförderten) Allianz- bzw. Nationallizenz frei zugänglich.

Pharmacological Modulation of Mucosa-Related Impairment of β-Adrenoceptor-Mediated Relaxation in Human DetrusorPropping, Stefan, Roedel, Melanie, Wirth, Manfred P., Ravens, Ursula 14 November 2023 (has links)
Objectives: The mucosa of human detrusor strips impairs catecholamine-induced relaxation. In order to elucidate which signal transduction pathways are involved in this cross talk between the mucosa and detrusor, we have studied the effects of several pharmacological agonists and antagonists on noradrenaline-mediated relaxation in intact and mucosa-denuded detrusor strips. Patients and Methods: Strips of detrusor tissue were obtained from patients who had undergone cystectomy for bladder cancer and were set up for force measurement. KCl- or carbachol-precontracted strips were relaxed with increasing concentrations of noradrenaline in the absence and in the presence of nitric oxide synthase inhibitor, L-NAME; P2X-receptor antagonist, PPADS; ET A -receptor antagonist, BQ-123; ET B -receptor antagonist, BQ-788; cyclooxygenase inhibitor, diclofenac; AT 1 -receptor antagonist, candesartan; and NK 1 -receptor antagonist, L-703,606. Results: In intact strips, KCl-stimulated force was enhanced by all blockers; carbachol-stimulated force increased with L-703,606. In denuded strips, only L-NAME augmented the KCl-stimulated contraction. Noradrenaline relaxed the precontracted detrusor strips to a significantly larger extent and at lower concentrations in denuded than in intact strips. L-NAME, PPADS and BQ-123/BQ-788 had little effect on noradrenaline-induced relaxation, whereas diclofenac, candesartan and L-703,606 sensitized intact carbachol-stimulated detrusor strips to noradrenaline-induced relaxation. Conclusion: Inhibition of the noradrenaline-induced relaxation of precontracted human detrusor strips by the mucosa is attenuated by diclofenac, candesartan and L-703,606 suggesting the involvement of prostanoids, angiotensin and neurokinin pathways. Further experiments are required to unravel the exact mechanisms.
