Cholinergic prejunctional inhibition of nitrergic neurotransmission in the guinea-pig isolated basilar artery.

abstract：:The effect of pancuronium in the rabbit ear artery was investigated in order to measure the inhibition it produces at the prejunctional muscarinic receptor on sympathetic nerve endings in this tissue. Pancuronium (0.1-0.2 mmol/l) produced an enhancement of responses to transmural electrical stimulation but this effect...
