Abstract：
:This investigation was undertaken to characterize the muscarinic receptor subtypes involved in methacholine-induced vasodilation, vagal bradycardia, neurally-evoked sudomotor responses and sympathetic muscarinic ganglionic transmission in anesthetized cats. Dose-response curves were constructed using the putatively selective antagonists pirenzepine (M1), gallamine (M2) and 4-DAMP (M3: 4-diphenyl-acetoxy-N-methylpiperidine) and compared with the non-selective blocker, atropine. Methacholine hypotension and evoked sudomotor responses exhibited an M3 muscarinic receptor profile with the following potency relationships: atropine > or = 4-DAMP > pirenzepine > gallamine. Vagal bradycardia (M2) was antagonized by gallamine and exhibited a lower relative sensitivity to 4-DAMP when corrected for atropine effect. Pirenzepine was inactive in inhibition of bradycardia but was highly potent against transmission in the sympathetic ganglion (M1) with the following potency relationships: atropine > or = pirenzepine > 4-DAMP > gallamine. In comparison with atropine, 4-DAMP exhibited a significantly lower potency for M1 and M2 muscarinic receptors as compared to its effect on the M3 muscarinic receptor subtypes.
