BACKGROUND A novel classification of α‐1 adrenoceptor subtypes (High, Low) was
applied to human benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) tissue. METHODS Human BPH …

Objective To characterize the α1,‐adrenoceptor subtypes of the human benignly enlarged
prostate using functional and binding studies. Material and methods Strips of prostatic tissue …

The objective of the present study was to determine the density and functional properties of
alpha 1 adrenoceptors in different regions of the human prostate. Binding and functional …

Alpha-1 adrenoceptors in hypertrophied prostates of humans were characterized by a
binding assay using [3H] prazosin as a radioligand. Specific [3H] prazosin binding in …

The object of this study was to examine the existence and characteristics of α1‐
adrenoceptor subtypes in the bovine prostate using the radioligand binding assay …

1. We showed that there were two distinct alpha (1)-adrenoceptor subtypes (alpha (1H) and
alpha (IL)) in the human prostate which show different affinities for 3H-prazosin. 2. WB4101 …

The α 1-adrenoceptor subtypes of dog prostate were characterized in binding and functional
experiments. In saturation experiments,[3 H] prazosin bound to α 1-adrenoceptors with high …

The role of alpha 1-adrenoceptors in the mediation of autonomic functions, particularly in the
control of the cardiovascular system, is widely known. It has been shown that alpha 1 …

The effects of some α 1-adrenoceptor antagonists (prazosin, nonselective for the α 1A-and α
1B-adrenoceptor subtypes; 5-methyl-urapidil, selective for the α 1A-adrenoceptor subtype …

High affinity α 1 adrenoceptors have been characterized in the human prostate. The tension
of prostatic smooth muscle is mediated by the α 1 adrenoceptor. The present study …
