PURPOSE: To examine the effects of i.v. administration of MK-571, a MRP4/5 pump inhibitor, on urethral function in the urethane-anesthetized rat, and the changes of urethral multidrug resistance protein 5 (MRP5) pump in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes mellitus (DM) rats.
METHODS: Isovolumetric cystometry and urethral perfusion pressure (UPP) measurements were carried out in normal control (NC) group and 8week DM groups under urethane anesthesia. When stable rhythmic bladder contractions were showed, UPP parameters were recorded after successive administration of various dose of MK-571. Additionally, urethral cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) protein level was evaluated by ELISA, and changes of MRP5 pump and neurogenic nitric oxide synthase (nNOs) in the urethra were examined with immunohistochemical staining and Western blot analysis.
RESULTS: In NC group, UPPnadir was significantly decreased but UPP change increased after administration of MK-571, while no significant differences in UPP parameters were observed in 8-week DM group. Furthermore, urethral MRP5 protein level was up-regulated, whereas urethral cGMP and nNOS protein levels were down-regulated in 8-week DM group.
CONCLUSIONS: MK-571 could not restore NO-mediated urethral relaxation dysfunction in DM rats, which may be attributed to the up-regulation of urethral MRP5 pump, and thus decrease of intracellular cGMP concentration in the urethra. These novel results would be useful for a better understanding of DM-related lower urinary tract dysfunction LUT (LUTD). Also, they could be helpful to study the importance of MRP pumps in the control of urethral relaxation mechanisms under physiological and pathological states.
