چکیده

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is characterized by stromal cell proliferation and contraction of the periurethral smooth muscle, causing lower urinary tract symptoms. Current BPH treatment, based on monotherapy with a1A-adrenoceptor antagonists, is helpful for many patients, but insufficient for others, and recent reports suggest that stimulation of a1D-adrenoceptors and 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) (5-HT)1A receptors contributes to cell proliferation. In this study, we investigated the potential of three N-phenylpiperazine derivatives (LDT3, LDT5, and LDT8) as multi-target antagonists of BPH-associated receptors. The affinity and efficacy of LDTs were estimated in isometric contraction and competition-binding assays using tissues (prostate and aorta) and brain membrane samples enriched in specific onor off-target receptors. LDTs’ potency was estimated in intracellular Ca elevation assays using cells overexpressing human a1-adrenoceptor subtypes. The antiproliferative effect of LDTs on prostate cells from BPH patients was evaluated by viable cell counting and 3-(4,5dimethythiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide assays. We also determined LDTs’ effects on rat intraurethral and arterial pressure. LDT3 and LDT5 are potent antagonists of a1A-, a1Dadrenoceptors, and 5-HT1A receptors (Ki values in the nanomolar range), and fully inhibited phenylephrineand 5-HT–induced proliferation of BPH cells. In vivo, LDT3 and LDT5 fully blocked the increase of intraurethral pressure (IUP) induced by phenylephrine at doses (ED50 of 0.15 and 0.09 mg.kg , respectively) without effect on basal mean blood pressure. LDT3 and LDT5 are multi-target antagonists of key receptors in BPH, and are capable of triggering both prostate muscle relaxation and human hyperplastic prostate cell growth inhibition in vitro. Thus, LDT3 and LDT5 represent potential new lead compounds for BPH treatment.

Selective Inhibition of a1B-Adrenergic Receptor Expression and Function Using a Phosphorothioate Antisense Oligodeoxynucleotide

To investigate a1B-adrenoceptor function, we developed a phosphorothioate antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (AO) to inhibit the expression of the a1B-adrenoceptor subtype in DDT1 MF2 cells. We measured the cellular uptake of the AO and its effect on a1B-adrenoceptor mRNA expression, protein density, and coupling to phospholipase C. Cells treated with either a control oligodeoxynucleotide (CO) or m...

Intracellular Transactivation of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor by a1A-Adrenoceptor Is Mediated by Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase Independently of Activation of Extracellular Signal Regulated Kinases 1/2 and Serine-Threonine Kinases in Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells

Transactivation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) by a1adrenoceptor (a1-AR) is implicated in contraction and hypertrophy of vascular smooth muscle (VSM). We examine whether all a1-AR subtypes transactivate EGFR and explore the mechanism of transactivation. Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells stably expressing one subtype of a1-AR were transiently transfected with EGFR. The transactivatio...

a1D-Adrenoceptors Cause Endothelium-Dependent Vasodilatation in the Rat Mesenteric Vascular Bed

The vasodilator activity of a1-adrenoceptor agonists was tested in the rat mesenteric vascular bed (MVB), and the mechanism involved was investigated in cultured endothelial cells isolated from the bovine coronary vascular bed. In preparations preconstricted by U46619, noradrenaline and phenylephrine induced a slight relaxant effect at nanomolar concentrations. This effect was abolished in endo...
