Roles of M2 and M4 muscarinic receptors in regulating acetylcholine release from myenteric neurons of mouse ileum.
We investigated the subtype of presynaptic muscarinic receptors associated with inhibition of acetylcholine (ACh) release in the mouse small intestine. We measured endogenous ACh released from longitudinal muscle with myenteric plexus (LMMP) preparations obtained from M1-M5 receptor knockout (KO) mice. Electrical field stimulation (EFS) increased ACh release in all LMMP preparations obtained fr...
متن کاملReceptor-induced Ca(2+) signaling in cultured myenteric neurons.
We studied the effect of excitatory neurotransmitters (10(-5) M) on the intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) of cultured myenteric neurons. ACh evoked a response in 48.6% of the neurons. This response consisted of a fast and a slow component, respectively mediated by nicotinic and muscarinic receptors, as revealed by specific agonists and antagonists. Substance P evoked a [Ca(2+)](i...
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 the lower urinary tract.
Acetylcholine acting on muscarinic M(3) receptors on the detrusor muscle is the principal stimulus for inducing the contractile response for urinary bladder voiding. The urinary bladder expresses, however, all cloned muscarinic receptor subtypes (M(1)-M(5)). In terms of quantity, the M(2) subtype dominates over the M(3) subtype in the detrusor, and its role in contraction seems to be primarily ...
متن کاملRole of the thalamic parafascicular nucleus cholinergic system in the modulation of acute corneal nociception in rats
The present study investigated the effects of microinjections of acetylcholine (a cholinergic agonist), physostigmine (a cholinesterase inhibitor), atropine (an antagonist of muscarinic cholinergic receptors) and hexamethonium (an antagonist of nicotinic cholinergic receptors) into the parafascicular nucleus of thalamus on the acute corneal nociception in rats. Acute corneal nociception was ind...
