We have investigated the ability of protease‐activated receptor‐1 (PAR‐1), PAR‐2, PAR‐3 and PAR‐4 agonists to induce contractile responses in isolated guinea‐pig gallbladder. Thrombin, trypsin, mouse PAR‐1 activating (SFLLRN‐NH2) peptide, and mouse PAR‐2 activating (SLIGRL‐NH2) and human PAR‐2 activating (SLIGKV‐NH2) peptides produced a concentration‐dependent contractile response.Mouse PAR‐4 activating (GYPGKF‐NH2) peptide, the mouse PAR‐1 reverse (NRLLFS‐NH2) peptide, the mouse PAR‐2 reverse (LRGILS‐NH2) and human PAR‐2 reverse (VKGILS‐NH2) peptides caused negligible contractile responses at the highest concentrations tested.An additive effect was observed following the contractile response induced by either trypsin or thrombin, with the addition of a different PAR agonist (SFLLRN‐NH2and SLIGRL‐NH2, respectively). Desensitization to PAR‐2 activating peptide attenuated the response to trypsin but failed to attenuate the response to PAR‐1 agonists, and conversely desensitization to PAR‐1 attenuated the response to thrombin but failed to alter contractile responses to PAR‐2 agonists.The contractile responses produced by thrombin, trypsin, SFLLRN‐NH2and SLIGRL‐NH2were markedly reduced in the presence of the cyclo‐oxygenase inhibitor, indomethacin, whilst the small contractile response produced by NRLLFS‐NH2and LRGILS‐NH2were insensitive to indomethacin.The contractile responses to thrombin, trypsin, SFLLRN‐NH2and SLIGRL‐NH2were unaffected by the presence of: the non‐selective muscarinic antagonist, atropine; the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor,L‐NAME; the sodium channel blocker, tetrodotoxin; the combination of selective tachykinin NK1and NK2receptor antagonists, (S)‐1‐[2‐[3‐(3,4‐dichlorphenyl)‐1 (3‐isopropoxyphenylacetyl) piperidin‐3‐yl] ethyl]‐4‐phenyl‐1 azaniabicyclo [2.2.2] octane chloride (SR140333) and (S)‐N‐methyl‐N‐[4‐acetylamino‐4‐phenylpiperidino‐2‐(3,4‐dichlorophenyl)‐butyl] benzamide (SR48968), respectively.The results indicate that PAR‐1 and PAR‐2 activation causes contractile responses in the guinea‐pig gallbladder, an effect that is mediated principally by prostanoid release, and is independent of neural mechanisms.British Journal of Pharmacology(2000)131, 689–694; doi:10.1038/sj.bjp.0703618
