Mechanisms of inhibitory action of TRK-130 (Naltalimide), a μ-opioid receptor partial agonist, on the micturition reflex.
International Urology and Nephrology 2017 April
PURPOSE: To clarify the mechanism of inhibitory action of TRK-130 (Naltalimide), a unique µ-opioid receptor partial agonist, on the micturition reflex.
METHODS: The effect of TRK-130 on isovolumetric rhythmic bladder contractions (RBCs) was examined in guinea pigs, the effect of which was clarified by co-treatment with naloxone or in spinal cord transection. The effect of TRK-130 on urodynamic parameters was also observed in guinea pigs. In addition, the effect of TRK-130 on bladder contraction induced by peripheral stimulation of the pelvic nerve was investigated in rats.
RESULTS: TRK-130 (0.001-0.01 mg/kg, iv) dose-dependently inhibited RBCs, which was dose-dependently antagonized by naloxone; however, the antagonism susceptibility was different from morphine (1 mg/kg, iv). The minimum effective dose (0.003 mg/kg) of TRK-130 remained similar in spinal cord-transected animals. TRK-130 (0.0025 mg/kg, iv) increased bladder capacity without changing the voiding efficiency, maximum flow rate, and intravesical pressure at the maximum flow rate, whereas oxybutynin (1 mg/kg, iv) increased the bladder capacity but affected the other parameters. TRK-130 (0.005 mg/kg, iv) did not produce significant changes on the bladder contractions induced by peripheral stimulation of the pelvic nerve, while oxybutynin (1 mg/kg, iv) significantly suppressed the bladder contractions.
CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that TRK-130 enhances the bladder storage function by modulating the afferent limb of the micturition reflex through µ-opioid receptors in the spinal cord. TRK-130 could be a more effective and safer therapeutic agent with a different fashion from antimuscarinics and conventional opioids for overactive bladder.
