This study was designed to compare the effects of β-adrenoceptor agonists formoterol and BRL 37344 on spontaneous contractions and the levels of cAMP and cGMP of myometrial strips isolated from timed-pregnant rats. Myometrial strips were obtained from term-pregnant Wistar albino rats (n = 12), mounted in organ baths and tested for changes in isometric tension in response to formoterol and BRL 37344. We evaluated the effect of increasing concentrations of formoterol and BRL 37344 on oxytocin-induced myometrial contractions and on contractions of myometrial smooth muscle pretreated with metoprolol, ICI 118.551 and SR 59230A (β1, β2, β3-adrenoceptor antagonist, respectively, 10− 6 M). Effects of formoterol and BRL 37344 on cAMP and cGMP levels in isolated myometrial strips (n = 6) were evaluated by radioimmunoassay kits. Formoterol (10− 12–10− 8 M) and BRL 37344 (10− 11–10− 5 M) concentration-dependently decreased the amplitude of oxytocin-induced contractions. Emax value (100%) of formoterol was increased significantly more than Emax value (70.6%) of BRL 37344 (P < 0.05), with no change in pD2 value (9.54 ± 0.12 and 9.12 ± 0.12, respectively). The inhibition of the amplitude of oxytocin-induced contractions by formoterol was antagonized with ICI 118.551 (10− 6 M), but they were not changed by metoprolol (10− 6 M) or SR 59230A (10− 6 M). The inhibition of the amplitude of oxytocin-induced contractions by BRL 37344 were antagonized with SR 59230A (10− 6 M), but they were not changed by metoprolol (10− 6 M) or ICI 118.551 (10− 6 M). Formoterol and BRL 37344 increased cAMP levels. BRL 37344 increased cGMP levels in BRL 37344 group more than control group, but this increase is less significant than cAMP levels (P > 0.05). Formoterol and BRL 37344 decreased amplitude of myometrial contractions with similar potency, but efficacy of formoterol was better than BRL 37344.
