Many workers have reported that ureteral peristaltic movement is controlled by the "so-called Pacemaker". But, in our recent studies, it was revealed that the existence of pacemaker is not always necessary for the peristaltic movement. In this study, we made isolated and non-isolated prototype models, using 18 mongrel dogs, to explore the influential factors on ureteral peristaltic discharge. Bilateral kidney and ureter were exposed transperitoneally. Unilateral upper urinary tract was prepared to preserve the pacemaker without renal blood supply, and contralateral one was prepared not to preserve the pacemaker by cutting at the proximal portion of the ureter. Vesico-ureteral reflux (VUR) was caused on these two models. A luminal pressure and ureteral electromyogram was recorded. In the result, there is spontaneous peristaltic discharges of the ureter which had the tendency to increase peristaltic frequency according to the increase of the luminal pressure. It was suggested that adequate expanding stimulation is the factor of peristaltic discharge to increase, and the peristaltic discharge under this condition propagates from upper to lower portion of the ureter.
