目的:研究人类输精管中的嘌呤能信号。设计:研究阴囊输精管的收缩反应。设置:一所大学教学医院的研究部门。患者:接受输精管切除术或输精管切除术(年龄27-88岁,n = 14)。干预措施:输精管切除术或输精管切除术:主要结果测量:将输精管条悬挂在器官浴中,并进行电刺激以建立频率响应曲线。在磷酸吡哆醛-6-偶氮苯基-2 ',4'-二磺酸(PPADS,P2受体拮抗剂)、哌唑嗪(肾上腺素能α(1)拮抗剂)和河豚毒素存在下重复这些刺激。构建去甲肾上腺素和P2 X激动剂ATP和α,β-亚甲基ATP(α,β-meATP)的浓度-反应曲线。结果:在32 Hz时,PPADS使P2 X受体亚型的反应降低40%,哌唑嗪使P2 X受体亚型的反应降低80%。去甲肾上腺素引起浓度依赖性收缩(EC 50 = 11.8 μ M)。对ATP和α,β-meATP的收缩(EC 50 = 6.27 μ M)表明功能性受体是P2 X(1)和/或P2 X(3)。然而.结论:本研究证实ATP是一种与去甲肾上腺素共同参与人输精管收缩的共递质,主要通过P2 X(1)受体发挥作用。
Objective: To examine purinergic signaling in human vas deferens.Design: To study contractile responses of the scrotal vas deferens.Setting: Research department of a university teaching hospital.Patient(s): Undergoing vasectomy or orchidectomy (aged 27-88 years, n = 14). Intervention(s): Vasectomy or orchidectomy.Main Outcome Measure(s): Strips of vas deferens were suspended in an organ bath and subjected to electrical stimulation to establish frequency-response curves. These stimulations were repeated in the presence of pyridoxalphosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulfoinc acid (PPADS, P2 receptor antagonist), prazosin (adrenergic alpha(1) antagonist), and tetrodotoxin. Concentration-response curves were constructed to noradrenaline and the P2X agonists ATP and alpha,beta-methylene ATP (alpha,beta-meATP). The P2X receptor subtype distribution was assessed by immunohistochemistry using specific antibodies.Result(s): The response at 32 Hz in the presence of PPADS was reduced by 40% and in the presence of prazosin by 80%. Noradrenaline caused concentration-dependent contractions (EC50 = 11.8 mu M). Contractions to ATP and alpha,beta-meATP (EC50 = 6.27 mu M) suggested that the functional receptor was P2X(1) and/or P2X(3). However. immunohistochemistry demonstrated P2X(1), but not P2X(3), receptor immunoreactivity on the smooth muscle cells.Conclusion(s): This study demonstrated that ATP is a co-transmitter with noradrenaline in the contraction of the human vas deferens predominantly acting through the P2X(1) receptor.
