Developmental changes in alpha-adrenergic and muscarinic receptor-mediated contractions of rat vas deferens.
Studies were made on developmental changes in phasic contractions of isolated rat vas deferens in response to norepinephrine (NE) and acetylcholine (ACh), which are mediated by alpha-adrenergic and muscarinic cholinergic receptors (alpha-R and m-R). The ED50 values of both contractions were almost constant during development, but the maximum responses to NE and ACh per wet weight and the relati...
متن کاملVaricosity-Schwann cell interactions mediated by ATP in the mouse vas deferens.
Schwann cells, from a variety of sources, are known to possess P2Y purinergic metabotropic receptors. However, it is not known if Schwann cells associated with autonomic nerve terminals possess such receptors and if so whether these receptors are activated by the endogenous release of ATP from the nerve terminals. We show that such Schwann cells in the vas deferens give evoked calcium transient...
متن کاملEffect of heptanol on noradrenaline-induced contractions in rat vas deferens.
We have studied the effects of 1-heptanol and nifedipine on noradrenaline (NA)-induced contractions in order to explore the role of gap junctions and their interactions with L-type Ca2+ channel mediated [Ca2+]o entry in the generation of NA-induced contractions in the rat vas deferens. Application of 20 microM NA to rat vas deferens resulted in contractions with three different components, an i...
متن کاملEffects of heptanol and carbenoxolone on noradrenaline induced contractions in guinea pig vas deferens.
We examined the effects of two putative gap junction blockers, heptanol and carbenoxolone, on noradrenaline-induced contractions in guinea pig vas deferens. The force generated due to the exogenously added noradrenaline (20 microM) consisted of two components: the tonic and the oscillatory. 2 mM heptanol abolished the oscillatory contractions and drastically suppressed both the maximum force (b...
متن کاملEffect of oleic, lauric and myristic acids on phenylephrine-induced contractions of isolated rat vas deferens.
D-004, a lipid extract of Roystonea regia fruits that contains oleic, lauric and myristic acids as major components inhibits alpha1-adrenoreceptors-mediated contractile responses in isolated rat vas deferens and prostate trips; no study has demonstrated a similar effect for oleic, lauric or myristic acids individually. Therefore, the effects of D-004 (250 microg/mL), oleic (100 microg/mL), laur...
