Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Role of intrinsic relaxation mechanisms of the bladder in regulating spontaneous contractility was investigated in smooth muscles of detrusor and muscularis mucosae. PTHrP, an endogenous muscle relaxant released from detrusor upon bladder wall distension, had a more pronounced inhibitory effects on spontaneous contractions of detrusor than those of muscularis mucosae. TRPV4, a Ca2+-permeable stretch-activated cation channels expressed in both detrusor and muscularis mucosae. Ca2+ influx through TRPV4 appears to activate BK channels to suppress spontaneous contractions, and thus a functional coupling of TRPV4 with BK channels may act as a self-limiting mechanism for bladder contractility. SK channel openers prolonged the after-hyperpolarization in both detrusor and muscularis mucosae, indicating the SK channels expression in not only PDGFRα (+) cells but also detrusor. Upregulation of these intrinsic relaxation mechanisms may result in underactive bladder.
