Parasympathetic innervation of canine tracheal smooth muscle.
To investigate whether efferent parasympathetic fibers to the tracheal smooth muscle course through the pararecurrent nerve rather than the recurrent or the superior laryngeal nerve, we stimulated all three nerves in anesthetized dogs. We also recorded the pararecurrent nerve activity response to bronchoconstrictor stimuli and compared it with pressure changes inside a saline-filled cuff of an ...
متن کاملInduced Contractions in Rat Vascular Smooth Muscle
Using front-surface fluorometry, we determined the effects of cocaine on force and cytosolic Ca2' concentration ([Ca2+] ) in the rat aorta. We also examined the effects of cocaine on 45Ca2` influx. Cocaine (10-` to 10` M) alone did not alter the resting level of [Ca2`], and force. Cocaine (<l0-` M), in a concentration-dependent manner, potentiated the 10-6 M serotonin (5-HT)-induced or 10` M no...
متن کاملImidazole-induced contractions in bovine tracheal smooth muscle are not dependent on the cAMP pathway
The mechanism of imidazole-induced contraction on the bovine tracheal smooth muscle was investigated. Imidazole induced muscle contraction in a concentration-dependent manner on bovine, porcine and guinea-pig tracheas, but not in rat or mouse. In bovine tracheas, imidazole was cumulatively applied and induced muscle tension and increasesd intracellular Ca2+ level in a concentration -dependent m...
متن کاملTypical endothelin ETA receptors mediate atypical endothelin-1-induced contractions in sheep isolated tracheal smooth muscle.
Contraction of vascular and nonvascular smooth muscle induced by the endothelin/sarafotoxin family of peptides frequently does not readily fit into the current classification criteria for ETA and ETB receptors, raising the possibility of additional atypical receptors. In the current study, isometric tension recording and radioligand binding techniques were used to characterize the ETA receptor ...
متن کاملPreventive effects of ipratropium and salbutamol against insulin induced tracheal smooth muscle contraction in guinea pig model
Inhalational insulin was withdrawn from the market due to its potential to produce airway hyper-reactivity and bronchoconstriction. So the present study was designed to explore the acute effects of insulin on airway reactivity of guinea pigs and protective effects of salbutamol and ipratropium against insulin induced airway hyper-responsiveness on isolated tracheal smooth muscle of guinea pig. ...
