Mature male Wistar rats (12-14 weeks) were used in this study. All of these test drugs from 10-6 to 10-4 M/kg were injected cumulatively via the catheter of femoral artery. The phasic tension (ΔmmHg) of each drug at different concentration will be compared to the control to obtain the dose-response curve of each subtype of 5-HT agonist. From the dose-response curve, only 8-OH-DPAT (5-HT1A) had a dose-dependent inhibition on the seminal vesicle pressure response to the LSN stimulation. More than 50% of inhibition was noted at the concentration of 104 M/kg of 8-OH-DPAT, and the IC50 of 8-OH-DPAT was 6.46 x 10-5 M/kg. We believed that 8-OH-DPAT (5-HT1A) mediates the rat seminal vesicle contraction, not like 5-HT2C receptors in the spinal cord reflex center. However, further investigation, as immuno-histochemical study is necessary to prove it.application/pdf156679 bytesapplication/pdfzh-TW國立臺灣大學醫學院泌尿科otherhttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/25509/1/902314B002449.pdf
