1 Bay K 8644 (0.33 nM to 1 .mu.M) greatly increased the contractions of rat urinary bladder detrusor muscle induced by .beta.,.gamma.-methylene ATP (.beta.,.gamma.-MeATP, 10 .mu.M) and by electrical field stimulation of the purinergic component (the cholinergic response was blocked by atropine). 2 The contractions induced by acetylcholine (ACh, 10 .mu.M) and by electrical field stimulation of the cholinergic component (the purinergic response was blocked following desensitization by .alpha.,.beta.-MeATP) were also potentiated by Bay K 8644, although to a lesser extent than the purinergic responses. 3 Nifedipine (1 nM to 3.3 .mu.M) inhibited all the contractions induced by .beta.,.gamma.-MeATP ACh and electrical field stimulation. However, while the responses to .beta.,.gamma.-MeATP and electrical field stimulation of the purinergic component were almost abolished, a substantial proportion of the responses to ACh and electrical field stimulation of the cholinergic component were nifedipine resistant. 4 The concentration-effect for the potentiation by Bay K 8644 of the responses to .beta.,.gamma.-MeATP, ACh and electrical field stimulation were shifted to the right by nifedipine (10 nM). At concentrations greater than 1 .mu.M, Bay 8644 inhibited contraction. 5 It is concluded voltage-sensitive calcium channels play an important role in the excitatory mechanical action of P2x-purinoceptor-mediated purinergic responses in the rat urinary bladder, while cholinergic-mediated responses are less dependent on such channels.
