Abstract:
:The influence of drugs on ciliary beat frequency in the intrapulmonary airways of rats was studied in vitro. Sympathomimetic drugs significantly increased the ciliary beat frequency. Acetylcholine, pilocarpine, aminophylline, prednisolone, potassium iodide, and ammonium chloride also caused cilioexcitation, though to a lesser degree. Phentolamine, 5-hydroxytryptamine, histamine, and acetylcysteine caused an apparent cilioinhibition. However, histamine in high doses also caused an incoordination of ciliary beat. Codeine and phenobarbital were slightly cilioexcitatory in low concentrations and ciliodepressive at higher concentrations.
