Inhibition of Human Detrusor Contraction by a Urothelium Derived Factor

Abstract: Muscarinic agonists stimulate the release of an inhibitory factor from the human urothelium. The factor is distinct from nitric oxide and it persists in the presence beta-adrenoceptor blockade or cyclooxygenase inhibition.

“…1c). These results are in line with the existence of an ‘urothelium-derived relaxing factor [3,4,5,7]. Tension decline of CCh-induced contraction in a similar time window as required for the (-)-isoprenaline application (time-matched controls, TMC) was 13 ± 2% in intact and 14 ± 4% in denuded strips.…”

“…We have shown previously, that the presence of the mucosa attenuates the contractile response to KCl supporting the existence of an urothelium-derived relaxing factor [3,4]; however, others could not demonstrate this effect [5]. Our study also provided evidence that the mucosa may impair relaxation in response to (-)-isoprenaline.…”

“…Conflicting results were reported for contractions elicited by KCl depolarization, the urothelium having been associated with either a robust effect [7] or no effect at all [9]. In particular, the differences between denuded and intact detrusor strips faded during steady-state force development [6].…”

“…In ex vivo experiments, the mucosa of the human urinary bladder provides significant inhibitory effects on detrusor contractions in response to various modes of stimulation, for example, muscarinic agonists [3,4,5,6,7], tachykinins [8] or electric field stimulation [9,10]. Conflicting results were reported for contractions elicited by KCl depolarization, the urothelium having been associated with either a robust effect [7] or no effect at all [9].…”
