BACKGROUND: Postoperative ileus (POI) remains an important cause of death in horses. The recently developed selective 5-HT4 receptor agonists such as prucalopride target 5-HT4 receptors on myenteric cholinergic neurons to enhance acetylcholine release and GI motility. No clearcut in vitro evaluation whether highly selective 5-HT4 receptor agonists enhance submaximal cholinergic neurotransmission towards the muscle layer has been performed in horses.
OBJECTIVES: To identify functional 5-HT4 receptors in equine jejunum.
STUDY DESIGN: In vitro experimental study.
METHODS: Circular and longitudinal smooth muscle strips (mid-jejunum) were mounted in organ baths between 2 platinum electrodes allowing electrical field stimulation (EFS). To delineate the conditions to obtain purely cholinergic responses, voltage-response curves were studied. To investigate the influence of prucalopride and 5-HT, submaximal cholinergic contractions at a single voltage were induced.
RESULTS: In circular and longitudinal strips, EFS induced voltage-dependent neurogenic on-contractions when the bathing medium contained a NO-synthesis inhibitor and apamin to prevent inhibitory responses to NO and ATP. Contractions at a voltage inducing 50% of maximal amplitude were cholinergic, as they were blocked by atropine. These contractions were not influenced by prucalopride (up to 3μM), even in the presence of the phosphodiesterase inhibitor isobutyl-methyl-xanthine to inhibit breakdown of the second messenger of 5-HT4 receptors, cAMP. Also the full 5-HT4 receptor agonist 5-HT did not influence the EFS-induced submaximal cholinergic contractions. Moreover, prucalopride did not influence muscle tone continuously enhanced with KCl.
CONCLUSIONS: There are no functional 5-HT4 receptors on myenteric cholinergic neurons nor muscular 5-HT4 receptors in equine jejunum.
