The function of P2X3 receptor and NK1 receptor antagonists on cyclophosphamide-induced cystitis in rats.
The purpose of the study is to explore the function of P2X3 and NK1 receptors antagonists on cyclophosphamide (CYP)-induced cystitis in rats.. Sixty female Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into three groups. The rats in the control group were intraperitoneally (i.p.) injected with 0.9% saline (4 ml/kg); the rats in the model group were i.p. injected with CYP (150 mg/kg); and the rats in the intervention group were i.p. injected with CYP with subsequently perfusion of bladder with P2X3 and NK1 receptors' antagonists, Suramin and GR 82334. Spontaneous pain behaviors following the administration of CYP were observed. Urodynamic parameters, bladder pressure-volume curve, maximum voiding pressure (MVP), and maximum cystometric capacity (MCC), were recorded. Pathological changes in bladder tissue were observed. Immunofluorescence was used to detect the expression of P2X3 and NK1 receptors in bladder.. Cyclophosphamide treatment increased the spontaneous pain behaviors scores. The incidence of bladder instability during urine storage period of model group was significantly higher than intervention group (χ(2) = 7.619, P = 0.007) and control group (χ(2) = 13.755, P = 0.000). MCC in the model group was lower than the control and intervention groups (P < 0.01). Histological changes evident in model and intervention groups rats' bladder included edema, vasodilation, and infiltration of inflammatory cells. In model group, the expression of P2X3 receptor increased in urothelium and suburothelium, and NK1 receptor increased in suburothelium, while the expression of them in intervention group was lower.. In CYP-induced cystitis, the expression of P2X3 and NK1 receptors increased in urothelium and/or suburothelium. Perfusion of bladder with P2X3 and NK1 receptors antagonists ameliorated the bladder function.

Involvement of spinal tachykinin NK1 and NK2 receptors in detrusor hyperreflexia during chemical cystitis in anaesthetized rats.
The intraperitoneal administration of cyclophosphamide (150 mg/kg, 48 h before cystometry) induced detrusor hyperreflexia in urethane-anaesthetized rats. Intrathecal administration of the selective tachykinin NK1 receptor antagonist, GR 82,334 ([D-Pro9(spiro-gamma-lactam)Leu10,Trp11]physalaemin-(1-11)) (1 nmol/rat i.t.) had no significant effect on micturition in normal rats but increased the volume threshold In cyclophosphamide-treated rats. Another tachykinin NK1 receptor antagonist, RP 67,580 ((3aR,7aR)-7,7-diphenyl-2-[1-imino-2(2-methoxyphenyl)ethyl]+ ++perhydroisoindol -4-one) (10 nmol/rat i.t.) increased the volume threshold to a similar extent in both vehicle- and cyclophosphamide-treated animals. The tachykinin NK2 receptor antagonist, SR 48,968 (S7-N-methyl-N[4-(acetylamino-4-phenylpiperidino)-2-(3,4- dichlorophenyl)butyl]benzamide hydrochloride (10 nmol/rat i.t.) did not modify micturition parameters in normal rats but antagonized bladder hyperreflexia in cyclophosphamide-treated animals; SR 48,968 restored the volume threshold for the micturition reflex to values close to control values. SR 48,965 (R7-N-methyl-N[4-(acetylamino-4-phenylpiperidino)-2-(3,4- dichlorophenyl)butyl]benzamide hydrochloride) (10 nmol/rat i.t.), the enantiomer of SR 48,968 devoid of affinity for tachykinin NK2 receptors, was inactive. 2-Amino-5-phosphonovaleric acid (25 and 250 nmol/rat i.t.), a selective antagonist of NMDA receptors, augmented the volume threshold both in controls and in rats with detrusor hyperreflexia; after administration of this antagonist, however, the volume threshold in cyclophosphamide-treated animals was still lower than in controls. Intravenous administration of SR 48,968, RP 67,580, or the combined administration of SR 48,968 and RP 67,580 had no effect on cystometry variables either in rats with detrusor hyperreflexia or in controls.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) Topics: 2-Amino-5-phosphonovalerate; Animals; Benzamides; Cyclophosphamide; Cystitis; Indoles; Injections, Intravenous; Injections, Spinal; Isoindoles; Male; Neurokinin-1 Receptor Antagonists; Physalaemin; Piperidines; Rats; Rats, Wistar; Receptors, Neurokinin-1; Receptors, Neurokinin-2; Spinal Cord; Urinary Incontinence; Urination | 1994 |
