Tachykinin neurokinin 2 (NK2) receptor agonists may have potential to alleviate clinical conditions associated with bladder and gastrointestinal underactivity by stimulating contraction of visceral smooth muscle. The ability of [Lys(5),MeLeu(9),Nle(10)]-neurokinin A((4-10)) (LMN-NKA) to elicit micturition and defecation was examined after repeated administration in groups of 2-10 conscious dogs. Administration of 10-100 mu g/kg, i.v., four times daily for six consecutive days, reliably elicited micturition after >= 90% of doses and defecation after >= 50% of doses. Voiding occurred <4 minutes after dosing and was short lasting (< 10 minutes). LMN-NKA was well tolerated, with emesis after similar to 25% of doses at 100 mu g/kg, i.v. Hypotension was induced by 100 mu g/kg, i.v., of LMN-NKA but not by lower doses. Administration of 30-300 mu g/kg, s.c., twice daily for seven consecutive days, reliably elicited both urination and defecation after 88%-100% of doses, and was accompanied by a high rate of emesis (50%-100%). The onset of voiding was rapid (< 7 minutes) but was more prolonged than after intravenous administration (30-60 minutes). Emesis induced by 30 or 300 mu g/kg, s.c., of LMN-NKA was significantly reduced (from 58% to 8% and from 96% to 54%, respectively) by a 30-minute pretreatment with the neurokinin 1 (NK1) receptor antagonist, (2S, 3S)-N-(2-methoxybenzyl)-2-phenylpiperidin-3-amine (CP-99,994; 1 mg/kg, s.c.). The ability of selective NK2 receptor agonists to elicit on-demand voiding could potentially address a major unmet need in people lacking voluntary control of micturition and/or defecation. LMN-NKA unexpectedly activated NK1 receptors at doses that stimulated voiding, causing emesis and hypotension that may limit the clinical utility of nonselective NK2 receptor agonists.
