title: [Effect of terodiline hydrochloride on the function of urinary bladder in rats].
abstract: The effect of terodiline on the function of urinary bladder was investigated in anesthetized rats. When saline was infused continuously into the urinary bladder of rats, terodiline (1-10 mg/kg, i.v.) prolonged the time to micturition in a dose-dependent manner. When enough saline was infused into the urinary bladder to induce the voiding contraction in urethra-ligated rats, terodiline (1-10 mg/kg, i.v.) and verapamil (1 mg/kg, i.v.) abolished the contraction, of which amplitude and frequency were partially inhibited by atropine (1 mg/kg, i.v.). Efferent discharge from the pelvic nerve on the micturition reflex was inhibited by terodiline (3 mg/kg, iv.v.). Both of the bladder contractions evoked by the electrical stimulation of the peripheral or central cut end of the pelvic nerve were dose-dependently inhibited by terodiline (1-10 mg/kg, i.v.). At 3 mg/kg or more, terodiline significantly inhibited the contraction, and the effects were long lasting. The effect of atropine (1 mg/kg, i.v.) was similar to that of terodiline (3 mg/kg, i.v.). Increase in frequency of urination and decrease in total urinary volume per micturition after the bilateral transection of the hypogastric nerve were improved after on oral administration of terodiline (1-10 mg/kg).
