Inhibition of PDE‐4 isoenzyme attenuates frequency and overall contractility of agonist‐evoked ureteral phasic contractions

Inhibition of PDE‐4 isoenzyme attenuates frequency and overall contractility of agonist‐evoked ureteral phasic contractions

Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the functional role of phosphodiesterase enzymes (PDE) in the isolated porcine ureter. Distal ureteral strips were mounted in organ baths and pre‐contracted with 5‐HT (100 μM). Upon generation of stable phasic contractions, PDE‐4 and PDE‐5 inhibitors...
