Pre- and postjunctional muscarinic receptors in canine bronchi
Abstract
Cholinergic receptors on canine bronchial smooth muscle (mediating excitation) or on the cholinergic nerve endings (modulating acetylcholine release) have not yet been characterized. In this study, the effects of agents selective for the various muscarinic receptors on mechanical and electrical responses in isolated segments of canine bronchial smooth muscle (3rd-6th order) were investigated. Carbachol (Cch), bethanechol (Bch), oxotremorine …
