ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:DA-8010 is a novel compound developed for the treatment of overactive bladder (OAB) and urinary incontinence. The aims of this study were to investigate the effects of DA-8010 on OAB in a rat model. METHODS:Study animals were divided into the following five groups of seven animals each: a sham-operated control group, a control group with partial bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) (OAB group), and three DA-8010 (doses of 0.3?mg/kg/day, 1?mg/kg/day, and 3?mg/kg/day, respectively) with partial BOO groups. Oral administration of the drugs was continued for 14?days after 2 weeks of partial BOO. After 4 weeks of partial BOO, cystometrography was performed in all groups. Additionally, pro-inflammatory cytokines, Rho-kinases, and histology of the bladder were analyzed. RESULTS:There was a significant increase in the contraction interval and a decrease in contraction pressure in the 3?mg/kg/day DA-8010 group versus those in the OAB group. Rho kinase was also significantly decreased in the DA-8010 3?mg/kg/day dosage treatment group. The increased ratio of collagen to smooth muscle after partial BOO was significantly attenuated in the DA-8010 3?mg/kg/day dosage group. CONCLUSIONS:Oral administration of DA-8010 at 3?mg/kg/day improved findings in an OAB rat model induced by partial BOO. Our results suggest that the novel muscarinic receptor antagonist DA-8010 may be a promising drug for treating patients with OAB.
