Isolated human bladder: evidence for an adenine dinucleotide acting on P2X-purinoceptors and for purinergic transmission.

Abstract:

:In isolated strips of human urinary bladder detrusor muscle, ATP, alpha, beta-methylene ATP and P1,P6-diadenosine hexaphosphate caused concentration-dependent contractions. ATP was less potent than the two synthetic purine compounds and gave smaller maximum responses. Responses to ATP, P1,P6-diadenosine hexaphosphate and noncholinergic nerve stimulation were blocked following desensitization of P2X-purinoceptors by alpha,beta-methylene ATP. Thus, adenine dinucleotides can act on P2X-purinoceptors and there is an element of purinergic neuromuscular transmission in the human urinary bladder.
