Effects of beta-adrenergic stimulating and blocking agents on the dynamics of the human bladder outlet

K U Laval et al. Urol Int. 1978.

Abstract

The alpha-adrenergic innervation of the functional urethra is a well-known fact, while beta-adrenergic influence is rather unknown until now. We studied the influence of beta-stimulating and beta-blocking agents on the human urethra by the urethral pressure profile (UPP). A decrease of the UPP under orciprenaline sulfate and an increase under propranolol could be mentioned.
