Effect of Suo Quan Wan on the bladder function of aging rats based on the β-adrenoceptor
Suo Quan Wan (SQW) has been used to treat lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in elderly patients for hundreds of years in China. β-adrenoceptors (β-ARs), particularly β(3)-adrenoceptor (β(3)-AR), was reported to be important in the bladder dysfunction of the elderly. The present study was conducted...

description | Suo Quan Wan (SQW) has been used to treat lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in elderly patients for hundreds of years in China. β-adrenoceptors (β-ARs), particularly β(3)-adrenoceptor (β(3)-AR), was reported to be important in the bladder dysfunction of the elderly. The present study was conducted to explore the effect of β-AR, and particularly the β(3)-adrenoceptor, in aging rat bladder function in vitro and to test the therapeutic effect of SQW on LUTS in an aging rat model based on the β(3)-adrenoceptor. Briefly, the bladder detrusor muscles of young (age, 3 months) and aging (age, 15 months) female rats were separated. A β-AR non-selective agonist, isoprenaline (ISO), subtype β(3)-AR agonist (BRL37344A) and β(3)-AR antagonist (SR59230A) were used to define the tension change of detrusor muscles between young and aging rats in vitro. For blank controls, 12 young rats were marked, and 48 aging female rats were randomly divided into four groups as follows: Model, SQW high, SQW middle and SQW low. Following oral administration of SQW for 6 weeks in aging rats, urodynamic and bladder detrusor tests were used to evaluate the therapeutic effect of SQW. The expression of β(3)-AR mRNA was investigated using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Using ISO and BRL37344A in vitro, maximum relaxation (E(max)), intrinsic activity (IA), and log (50% effective concentration) (PD(2)) were significantly decreased in aging rats compared with that in young rats (P<0.05). Significant changes were also observed in the β(3)-AR antagonist experiment, which blocked ISO-induced relaxation, with significant decreases observed in E(max), IA and PD(2), and a significant increase observed in PA(2) for the aging rats compared with the young controls (P<0.05). SQW was demonstrated to enhance bladder control, storage and contraction ability. Furthermore, SQW was able to increase the sensitivity and expression of β(3)-AR in an aging rat. In conclusion, the decrease in β(3)-AR sensitivity in aging rats and the expression resulted in bladder detrusor dysfunction. In addition, the therapeutic effect of SQW against LUTS relies on the former's effect on the urethral sphincter, bladder detrusor and β(3)-AR. |
