    Notes: Abstract. The aim of the present study was to characterize the prejunctional modulation of evoked release of endogenous noradrenaline in rabbit vas deferens by the use of muscarinic receptor agonists and subtype-prefering antagonists.   Vasa deferentia of the rabbit were stimulated electrically by trains of 120 pulses delivered at 4 Hz or trains of 30 pulses at 1 Hz. The inhibition by muscarinic agonists of the stimulation-evoked overflow of endogenous noradrenaline in the absence and presence of antagonists was used to determine affinity constants for antagonists. These values were compared with those observed at putative M1 receptors inhibiting neurogenic twitch contractions in the rabbit vas deferens and with affinity data obtained at M1(m1)–M4(m5) receptors in functional studies and binding experiments.   The evoked overflow of noradrenaline from sympathetic nerves was enhanced by the A1 receptor antagonist 8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine (DPCPX), the P2 purinoceptor antagonist pyridoxalphosphate-6-azophenyl-29,49-disulfonic acid (PPADS) and indomethacin, indicating a tonic inhibition by endogenous A1 and P2 purinoceptor agonists and prostanoids, respectively. The stimulation-evoked overflow at 4 Hz was not sensitive to inhibition by the muscarinic agonists methacholine or 4-(4-chlorophenylcarbamoyloxy)-2-butynyltrimethylammonium iodide (4-Cl-McN-A-343). In contrast, at a stimulation frequency of 1 Hz the evoked noradrenaline release was decreased by muscarinic agonists (EC50): arecaidine propargyl ester (0.062 μM), 4-Cl-McN-A-343 (0.32 μM), 4-(4-fluorophenylcarbamoyloxy)-2-butynyl-N-methyl-pyrrolidinium tosylate (4-F-PyMcN+; 0.48 μM) and methacholine (0.86 μM). The affinity constants of most of the muscarinic antagonists [atropine: pKB = 9.47; (R)-trihexyphenidyl: pKB = 9.18; pirenzepine: pA2 = 7.68; methoctramine: pKB = 6.90] are consistent with estimates of these antagonists at M1(m1) receptors determined in various functional and binding studies. The high antagonistic potency of pirenzepine and (R)-trihexyphenidyl and the agonistic activity of 4-F-PyMcN+ argue for the involvement of M1, and against that of M2 and M3 receptors in the inhibition of evoked noradrenaline overflow. However, the high apparent pKB of 8.30 for himbacine is not in accordance with an M1 receptor; by contrast, it would be compatible with the presence of M2 or M4 receptors. The potencies of the tested muscarinic agonists and antagonists largely agree with those obtained for the inhibition of neurogenic twitch responses (0.05 Hz) in the rabbit vas deferens. In conclusion, the rabbit vas deferens is endowed with prejunctional muscarinic receptors mediating heteroinhibition of noradrenaline release that are probably of the same subtype as the putative M1 receptors inhibiting neurogenic twitch contractions, and are not of the M2, M3 or m5 subtype.

    Description / Table of Contents: Preparation and Properties of the Enantiomers of the Selective Antimuscarinic Agent 1-Cyclohexyl-1-phenyl-4-piperidino-1-butanol (Hexahydro-Difenidol)Using (S)- or (R)-mandelic acid as the resolving agent, the enantiomers of 1-cyclohexyl-1-phenyl-4-piperidino-2-butin-1-ol [(R)-2 and (S)-2] were prepared (enantiomeric purity: ee = 99.7%; calorimetric analysis). Catalytic hydrogenation (Pd/C contact) of (R)-2 and (S)-2 yielded the enantiomers of 1-cyclohexyl-1-phenyl-4-piperidino-1-butanol [(R)- and (S)-hexahydro-difenidol, (R)-1a and (S)-1a] which were isolated as hydrochlorides [(R)-1a ⋅ HCl and (S)-1a ⋅ HCl, ee = 99.7%]. The absolute configuration of the enantiomers of 1a and 2 was determined by an X-ray crystal structure analysis of the mandelate (S)-1a ⋅ (R)-C6H5CH(OH)COOH. (R)-Hexahydro-difenidol [(R)-1a] and (R)-2 exhibit a higher affinity for the atrial M2α and ileal M2β muscarinic receptors of the guinea pig than the respective antipodes (S)-1a and (S)-2 (atrial stereoselectivity index: 17 and 8.6, respectively; ileal stereoselectivity index: 193 and 44, respectively). In addition, (R)-1a and (R)-2 exhibit a significantly higher affinity for the M2β receptors of the ileum than for the M2α receptors of the atrium (atrium/ileum ratio: 21 and 10, respectively). Thus, (R)-1a and (R)-2 are valuable tools for the identification and characterization of muscarinic M2 subtypes. In contrast, the less potent (S)-enantiomers of 1a and 2 do not differentiate between M2α and M2β receptors.
    Notes: Durch Racematspaltung mit (S)- bzw. (R)-Mandelsäure wurden die Enantiomere von 1-Cyclohexyl-1-phenyl-4-piperidino-2-butin-1-ol [(R)-2 und (S)-2] dargestellt (Enantiomerenreinheit: ee = 99.7%, kalorimetrische Analyse). Katalytische Hydrierung (Pd/C-Kontakt) von (R)-2 und (S)-2 ergab die Enantiomere von 1-Cyclohexyl-1-phenyl-4-piperidino-1-butanol [(R)- und (S)-Hexahydro-Difenidol, (R)-1a und (S)-1a], die als Hydrochloride (R)-1a ⋅ HCl und (S)-1a ⋅ HCl isoliert wurden (ee = 99.7%). Die absolute Konfiguration der Enantiomere von 1a und 2 wurde durch Röntgenkristallstrukturanalyse des Mandelats (S)-1a ⋅ (R)-C6H5CH(OH)COOH bestimmt. (R)-Hexahydro-Difenidol [(R)-1a] und (R)-2 besitzen eine höhere Affinität zu den atrialen M2α-und ilealen M2β-Muscarinrezeptoren des Meerschweinchens als die entsprechenden Antipoden (S)-1a und (S)-2 (atrialer Stereoselektivitätsindex: 17 bzw. 8.6; ilealer Stereoselektivitätsindex: 193 bzw. 44). Darüber hinaus besitzen (R)-1a und (R)-2 eine signifikant höhere Affinität zu den M2β-Rezeptoren des Ileums als zu den M2α-Rezeptoren des Atriums und sind somit wertvolle Modellverbindungen zur Identifizierung und Charakterisierung von muscarinischen M2-Subtypen (Atrium/Ileum-Quotient: 21 bzw. 10). Im Gegensatz hierzu vermögen die schwächer wirksamen (S)-Enantiomere von 1a und 2 nicht zwischen den M2α- und M2β-Rezeptoren zu unterscheiden.
