Adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP), substance P (SP) and non-cholinergic nerve stimulation contracted the guinea-pig urinary bladder. SP and two poorly-degradable analogues of ATP, the enantiomers of adenylyl 5'-(beta, gamma-methylene)-diphosphonate (AMP-PCP and L-AMP-PCP), were used to desensitize the guinea-pig bladder. Desensitization of the bladder by AMP-PCP (50 microM) or by L-AMP-PCP (50 microM) abolished the responses to ATP, and inhibited the responses to non-cholinergic nerve stimulation and to SP. The responses to histamine were unaffected. Desensitization by SP (1 microM) inhibited the responses to SP itself, but not the responses to ATP, L-AMP-PCP or non-cholinergic nerve stimulation. These results suggest that SP may act partly by releasing ATP, and support the suggestion that ATP rather than SP is the non-cholinergic stimulatory transmitter.
5'-三磷酸腺苷(ATP)、P物质(SP)和非胆碱能神经刺激可使豚鼠膀胱收缩。SP以及两种降解缓慢的ATP类似物,即腺苷5'-(β,γ-亚甲基)-二磷酸酯的对映体(AMP-PCP和L-AMP-PCP),被用于使豚鼠膀胱脱敏。AMP-PCP(50微摩尔)或L-AMP-PCP(50微摩尔)使膀胱脱敏后,消除了对ATP的反应,并抑制了对非胆碱能神经刺激和SP的反应。对组胺的反应未受影响。SP(1微摩尔)使膀胱脱敏后,抑制了对SP自身的反应,但不抑制对ATP、L-AMP-PCP或非胆碱能神经刺激的反应。这些结果表明,SP可能部分通过释放ATP发挥作用,并支持了ATP而非SP是非胆碱能刺激递质的观点。
