Drug for inhibiting myometrial contraction
a technology of myometrial contraction and drug, which is applied in the direction of drug composition, peptides, peptides, etc., can solve the problems of premature labor and miscarriage, side effects similar to those of ritodrine, and the physiological role of am and the details of am function in these fetal and maternal tissues remain elusive. , to achieve the effect of preventing premature labor or miscarriag

Effect of AM on Spontaneous Contraction of the Uterus of a Female Rat)
[0064] 1 μg of 17β-estradiol in 0.2 ml of 30% ethanol was subcutaneously injected to 10 to 12 week old female rats.
[0065] On the following day, the rats were sacrified by hammering their heads. Thereafter, the rats were decapitated, followed by exsanguination. The uteri were isolated from the rats. Each isolated uterus was cut into four fragments a to d (FIG. 1(A)). Portions of each strip to which blood vessels were attached were cut off, thereby obtaining uterine strips (FIG. 1(B)).
[0066] The effect of AM on the rat uterus was examined by measuring contractions of the uterine strips using an isotonic transducer TD-112S (manufactured by Nippon Kohden Corporation) where the tension was 1 g.
[0067] While the uterine strip was immersed in 30 ml of a modified Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate (KRB) solution with glucose) (hereinafter simply referred to as “modified KRB solution”), the uterine strip was attached to the isoto...

Concentration-Dependent Effect of AM on the Uterus of a Female Rat
[0072] In a manner similar to that of Example 1, uterine strips were prepared, and attached to an isotonic transducer in a modified KRB solution. Myometrial contraction was continuously measured. After it was confirmed that the spontaneous rhythm of uterine muscle became constant, 30 μl of 1×10−6, 2×10−6, 7×10−6, 2×10−5, or 7×10−5 M AM (experimental samples), or distilled water (control sample) was added to the modified KRB solution at time 0 min (initial addition), 5 min later, 12 min later, 22 min later, and 32 min later, where AM concentrations were 1, 3, 10, 30, and 100 nM, respectively. Thereafter, after 45 minutes from the initial addition of AM or distilled water, 300 μl of 4.5 M KCl was added to the solution to be a KCl concentration of 45 mM.
[0073] The results are shown in FIGS. 3(a) to 3(c). Here, FIGS. 3(a) to 3(c) correspond to the results obtained by using the uterine strips for the portions b to d in F...

Inhibition of Bradykinin-Induced Contraction by AM
[0075] In a manner similar to that of Example 1, uterine strips were prepared and attached to an isotonic transducer in a modified KRB solution. At the time when 10 nM bradykinin (Peptide Institute, Inc.) was added to the modified KRB solution, myometrial contraction was continuously measured. 20 minutes after the addition of bradykinin, 100 nM AM or distilled water was further added.
[0076] The results are shown in FIGS. 4(a) and 4(b). Here, FIGS. 4(a) and 4(b) correspond to the results obtained by using the uterine strips for the portions a and c in FIG. 1(A), respectively. FIG. 4(a) shows the results of addition of 100 nM AM. FIG. 4(b) shows the results of addition of distilled water. Arrows in each figure indicate times at which bradykinin, AM, or distilled water were added.
[0077] As shown in FIGS. 4(a) and 4(b), bradykinin-induced contraction was inhibited by the addition of AM.
