Background Functional α1- and α2-adrenoreceptor subtype pharmacology was characterized in an in vitro human nasal mucosa contractile bioassay. Methods Nasal mucosa was obtained from 49 donor patients and mucosal strips were placed in chambers filled with Krebs–Ringer solution and attached to isometric force transducers. Results Nonselective α-adrenoreceptor agonists epinephrine, norepinephrine, and oxymetazoline produced concentration-dependent contractions of isolated human nasal mucosa (pD2= 5.2, 4.9, and 6.5, respectively). The α2-adrenoreceptor agonist BHT-920 (10 μM)–induced contractions were blocked by yohimbine (0.01–1 μM) and prazosin (0.01–1 μM) inhibited the contractile response to the α1-adrenoreceptor agonist phenylephrine (10 μM). Histological analysis showed that phenylephrine and BHT-920 differentially contracted the arteries and veins of human nasal mucosa, respectively. Conclusion Our results indicate that functional α1- and α2-adrenoceptors are present and functional in human nasal mucosa. The a 2-adrenoceptors display a predominant role in contracting the veins and the α1-adrenoceptors appear to preferentially constrict the human nasal arteries.
