Pharmacological and molecular characterization of muscarinic receptor subtypes in human esophageal smooth muscle.
Esophageal peristalsis is dependent on activation of muscarinic receptors, but little is known about the roles of specific receptor subtypes in the human esophagus. We examined muscarinic receptor expression and function in human esophageal smooth muscle obtained from patients undergoing resection for cancer. [(3)H]Quinuclidinyl benzylate (QNB)-specific binding was similar in longitudinal muscl...
متن کاملIn vivo characterization of vasodilating muscarinic-receptor subtypes in humans.
The role of muscarinic (M)-receptor subtypes in the regulation of vascular tone has not yet been defined in humans. To analyze the role of M-receptor subtypes in the forearm resistance vasculature of normotensive volunteers (n = 20), we infused acetylcholine (ACh) and methacholine (MCh) in the presence of saline and the antagonists atropine (nonselective), pirenzepine (M1 selective), and AF-DX ...
متن کاملMUSCARINIC RECEPTOR SUBTYPES IN SMOOTH MUSCLE FROM THE BODY OF HUMAN STOMACH
Up to date, there are four pharmacologically characterized subtypes of muscarinic receptors (M1, M2, M3 and M4). In our study we have investigated muscarinic receptor subtypes in smooth muscle layers of human stomach. Isolated preparations of longitudinal and circular muscle layers from human stomach were used. Acetylcholine, bethanechol, carbachol, pilocarpine and AHR -602 produced concen...
متن کاملMuscarinic receptor subtypes in airways.
Muscarinic receptor subtypes in the airways appear to subserve different physiological functions. M1-receptors facilitate neurotransmission through parasympathetic ganglia and enhance cholinergic reflexes, but are also localized to alveolar walls. M2-receptors act as autoreceptors on post-ganglionic cholinergic nerves and inhibit acetylcholine release. There is some evidence that they may be de...
متن کاملMolecular and pharmacological characterization of muscarinic receptor subtypes in a rat parotid gland cell line: comparison with native parotid gland.
The molecular and pharmacological characteristics of muscarinic receptor subtypes in the rat parotid acinar cell line, PAR-C5, were determined and compared with native rat parotid glands to evaluate the PAR-C5 cell line as a model to study receptor-mediated secretion. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) identified mRNAs for M(3), M(4), and M(5) receptor subtypes in both PAR...
