NTPDase1 Modulates Smooth Muscle Contraction in Mice Bladder by Regulating Nucleotide Receptor Activation Distinctly in Male and Female

Résumé

Nucleotides released by smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and by innervating nerve terminals activate specific P2 receptors and modulate bladder contraction. We hypothesized that cell surface enzymes regulate SMC contraction in mice bladder by controlling the concentration of nucleotides. We showed by immunohistochemistry, enzymatic histochemistry, and biochemical activities that nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase-1 (NTPDase1) and ecto-5-nucleotidase were the major ectonucleotidases expressed by SMCs in the bladder. RT-qPCR revealed that, among the nucleotide receptors, there was higher expression of P2X1, P2Y 1 , and P2Y 6 receptors. Ex vivo, nucleotides induced a more potent contraction of bladder strips isolated from NTPDase1 deficient (Entpd1 −/−) mice compared to wild type controls. The strongest responses were obtained with uridine 5triphosphate (UTP) and uridine 5-diphosphate (UDP), suggesting the involvement of P2Y 6 receptors, which was confirmed with P2ry6 −/− bladder strips. Interestingly, this response was reduced in female bladders. Our results also suggest the participation of P2X1, P2Y 2 and/or P2Y 4 , and P2Y 12 in these contractions. A reduced response to the thromboxane analogue U46619 was also observed in wild type, Entpd1 −/− , and P2ry6 −/− female bladders showing another difference due to sex. In summary, NTPDase1 modulates the activation of nucleotide receptors in mouse bladder SMCs, and contractions induced by P2Y 6 receptor activation were weaker in female bladders.
