Abstract
In this study, we have investigated the effects of a series of alpha1-adrenoceptor antagonists on the phenylephrine-mediated contractions of rabbit isolated prostate, urethra, trigone and mesenteric artery. With the exception of RS-17053 (N-[2-(2-cyclopropylmethoxyphenoxy)ethyl]-5-chloro-alpha,alpha-dim ethyl-1 H-indole-3-ethanamine hydrochloride), the antagonists displayed the lowest potency in the urethra. Catecholamine uptake1 and uptake2 appeared not to be the cause for the low pK(B)/pA2 values obtained in the urethra because cocaine and corticosterone had no effect on the potency of phenylephrine in this tissue. The low potencies displayed by prazosin. RS-17053 and HV723 (alpha-ethyl-3,4,5-trimethoxy-alpha-(3-((2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)ethyl)amino )propyl)benzene-acetonitrile fumarate) suggest that the functional receptors in all four tissues belong to the alpha(1L)-adrenoceptor class. Whether or not the significant between-tissue differences in antagonist potencies are due to heterogeneity of this receptor class remains to be elucidated.
