“…Decreased ATP metabolism could also explain high levels of ATP in the urine of OAB patients as compared to controls. Reports from our and others groups, have shown that ATP catabolism is hindered in the bladder of patients with outlet obstruction and detrusor overactivity [27], [37], [38], which could also be the case of women with OAB. Thus, our findings are consistent with urinary ATP being a putative dynamic biomarker of detrusor overactivity in women with OAB.…”

“…In addition, it is known that parasympathetic nerves from overactive or obstructed human bladder strips release more ATP than controls [15], [26], [27]. Enhanced urinary ATP content may also result from impairment of ecto-NTPDase activity observed in cells from OAB patients, as this finding may determine slower nucleotide inactivation kinetics in the bladder wall and its urinary accumulation [37], [38].…”

“…Bladder overactivity may be partly reversed through the hydrolysis of ATP into ADP by E‐NTPDases. Previous reports from our group demonstrated that ADP acts through inhibitory P2Y 1 receptors to decrease nerve‐evoked ACh release in the human bladder (Silva et al ., ). Here, we showed that VAChT‐positive cholinergic nerve efferents to the detrusor, but not NF160‐labelled sub‐urothelial sensory nerves, exhibit immunoreactive P2Y 1 receptors.…”

“…Besides the relevance of sub-urothelial P2X3 receptors to initiate the micturition reflex, blockade of P2Y1 receptors may remove an accommodatory, inhibitory drive to the detrusor muscle in urethane-anaesthetized female rats (King et al, 2004). In the human urinary bladder, ATP stimulation of bladder activity may be partly reversed by its catabolism by E-NTPDases to ADP, leading to the activation of inhibitory P2Y1 receptors on cholinergic nerve endings (Silva et al, 2011). In this context, we investigated the contribution of P2X3 and P2Y1 receptors to bladder hyperactivity caused by UDP (100 μM).…”
