| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We found that: (1) MPST and CAT were detected in the bladder and prostate and CBS was only detected in the prostate. On the other hand, CSE and DAO were not detected in both tissues. Immunoreactvities of these enzymes were mainly detected in the urothelium and smooth muscle layer of the bladder, and in the prostate glandular epithelium. (2) H2S was detected in the bladder and prostate tissues. (3) NaHS dose-dependently induced relaxation of pre-contracted BL-D, BL-T, PR-D and PR-V strips. There were no significant differences of the EC50 values or maximal relaxation rate against the pre-contractions among any of these tissues. Intravesically instilled GYY4137 significantly prolonged intercontraction intervals compared to the vehicle-treated group, and showed, although non-significant, tendency to reduce maximal voiding pressurecompared to the vehicle-treated group.
