- Purpose: We evaluated the effects of beta-adrenoceptor agonists on detrusor hyperreflexia in cerebral infarcted rats. Materials and Methods: To produce cerebral infarction in Sprague-Dawley rats the left middle cerebral artery was occluded by introducing a monofilament nylon thread into the artery. In sham operated rats the same artery was exposed but not occluded. After these operations cystometric and cardiovascular experiments were performed with no anesthesia or restraint. Results: After the operation bladder capacity was significantly decreased and voiding pressure was significantly increased in cerebral infarcted but not in sham operated animals. The difference in cerebral infarcted and sham operated rats was significant for each parameter (p < 0.01). Post-void residual urine volume was not affected in either group. In the cerebral infarction group intravenous administration of CL316243 ([R,R]-5-2-[[2-(3-chlorophenyl-2-hydroxyethyl]-amino] propyl]-1,3-benzodioxole-2,2-dicarboxylate) (Kissei Central Laboratories, Hotaka, Japan) a selective beta3-adrenoceptor agonist, significantly increased bladder capacity at 10 and 100 mug./kg. without affecting voiding pressure or post-void residual urine volume. Procaterol, a selective beta2-adrenoceptor agonist, significantly increased bladder capacity and post-void residual urine volume at 10 mug./kg. intravenously without affecting voiding pressure. In separate experiments procaterol (1 to 100 mug./kg. intravenously) decreased mean blood pressure and increased heart rate in a dose dependent manner. In contrast, the effects of CL316243 (0.1 to 100 mug./kg. intravenously) on mean blood pressure and heart rate were minimal. Conclusions: These results indicate that in cerebral infarcted rats detrusor hyperreflexia can be suppressed by the selective beta3-adrenoceptor agonist CL316243 without increasing post-void residual volume and without significant cardiovascular side effects. If the current results hold true in humans, selective beta3-adrenoceptor agonists may prove useful for treating detrusor hyperreflexia associated with cerebral infarction.

- Aims. To investigate the effects of selective beta(2)- and selective beta(3)-adrenoceptor (AR) agonists on prostaglandin (PG) E-2-induced bladder hyperactivity in conscious free-moving rats. Methods. Female Sprague-Dawley rats were anesthetized for implantation of bladder, intravenous, and intra-arterial catheters. The effects of a beta(3)-AR agonist (CL316,243) on cystometric and cardiovascular parameters were assessed in conscious rats. Intravesical instillation of PGE(2) (20-60 muM, 6 mL/hr) in conscious rats produced a concentration-dependent increase in voiding frequency. Results. In this model i.v. CL316,243 (beta(3)-AR agonist) reduced basal bladder pressure, increased micturition volume, and prolonged micturition interval in a dose-dependent manner, without affecting threshold pressure or micturition pressure. On the other hand, i.v. procaterol (beta(2)-AR agonist) did not counteract the bladder hyperactivity. Atropine (muscarinic antagonist) reduced micturition pressure and micturition volume, and shortened micturition interval. CL316,243 slightly decreased mean blood pressure and increased heart rate only when given at high doses (10 and 100 mug/kg, iv.). In contrast, procaterol caused a significant decrease in mean blood pressure and a significant increase in heart rate. Atropine significantly increased heart rate. Conclusions. The present results clearly demonstrated that the beta(3)-AR agonist prolonged the micturition interval without producing significant cardiovascular side effects. The human detrusor, like the rat detrusor, relaxes on beta(3)-AR stimulation. Provided that these results are valid in humans, selective beta(3)-AR agonists might be clinically useful for controlling a certain type of bladder overactivity.
