RESUMO
OBJECTIVE@#To investigate expression of ryanodine receptors (RyRs) in rabbit penile corpus cavernosum smooth muscle (CCSM) cells.@*METHODS@#New Zealand White Rabbit CCSM cells were cultured by primary tissue culture. Using CCSM cells and fibroblast have different adherence velocity, CCSM cell can be purified. Identification of CCSM cell was by inverted microscope and immunofluorescence technique. The cDNA sequence of RyRs was found out by searching genebank. Three pair of primers were designed by Primer Premier 5.0. The RyRs subunits mRNA was detected by reverse transcription PCR in cultured CCSM cells.@*RESULTS@#After 7d, we found growth of cultured cells. While 15 to approximately 20 d, cells filled the bottom of culture flask. They were identified by inverted microscope and immunofluorescence technique. After purification, purity of CCSM cells was near to 100%. It suggested only RyRs1 subunit was expressive in CCSM by RT-PCR.@*CONCLUSION@#RyRsl subunit is expressed in CCSM cells. It suggests that RyRs contribute to the regulation of Ca2+ in CCSM cells.

OBJECTIVE@#To study nomal valuels of PI, RI and S/D in healthy male penile dorsum artery (DA) and cavernosal artery (CA).@*METHODS@#257 healthy mature men were divided into 5 groups by age. Group 1: <30, n=65; Group 2: 30-39, n=83; Group 3: 40-49, n=61; Group 4: 50-59, n=38; Group 5: > or = 60, n=10. Hibateral PI, RI and S/D values of penile dorsum artery and cavernosal artery were examined by Logidop(r)2 Type Digital Doppler Ultrasonography.@*RESULTS@#There were no significant difference for PI, RI and S/D of penile dorsum artery and cavernosal artery not only in personal left and right artery but also in different age groups. Normal values advised: (1)LDA:PI 1.43-3.43, RI 0.72-0.92, S/D 2.68-10.56. (2)RDA PI 1.47-3.47, RI 0.73-0.93, S/D 3.27-10.09. (3)LCA:PI 1.49-3.21, RI 0.74-0.90, S/D 3.17-9.55. (4)RCA:PI 1.93-3.27, RI 0.72-0.90, S/D 3.22-9.42.@*CONCLUSION@#Doppler ultrasonography is a favorable method in filtering penile arterial function.
