A series of hexahydro-difenidol (HHD) and hexahydro-sila-difenidol (HHSiD) analogues modified in the amino group, the phenyl ring and in the alkylene chain were investigated for their binding and functional properties at muscarinic M1, M2 and M3 receptors. Novel muscarinic receptor antagonists were obtained which exhibited different receptor selectivity profiles from the parent compounds HHD and HHSiD (M1 congruent to M3 greater than M2), e.g. HHD and HHSiD methiodides, M1 greater than M2 congruent to M3; p-fluoro-HHSiD, M3 greater than M1 greater than M2; trans-hexbutenol, M1 greater than M3 greater than M2; and (s)-p-fluoro-hexbutinol, M3 greater than M2 congruent to M1. Stereoselectivity ratios [(R)/(S)] for the enantiomers of HHD, hexbutinol and p-fluoro-hexbutinol were highest at M1, intermediate at M3 and lowest at M2 receptors.

The nature of the prejunctional inhibitory muscarinic receptor on cholinergic nerve endings in the rat urinary bladder was investigated by measuring stimulated endogenous acetylcholine release via high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC), in the presence of various selective muscarinic antagonists. The rank order of potencies for the antagonists used was: atropine (-log concentration = 7.8) > 4-DAMP (4-diphenylacetoxy-N-methylpiperidine) (7.

The present study was designed to characterize the postjunctional muscarinic receptors mediating contraction in rat anococcygeus muscle by means of a series of muscarinic agonists and subtype-preferring key muscarinic antagonists. Cumulative addition of muscarinic agonists elicited concentration-dependent contractions with the following rank order of potency (pD2 values): (+)-muscarine (6.36) > or = oxotremorine M (6.

In order to analyse the subtype of muscarinic receptors involved in the methacholine-induced contraction of the rabbit iris sphincter we have determined equilibrium dissociation constants (KB) of various antagonists in the sphincter muscle. The values were compared with those observed at M1 (rabbit vas deferens), M2 (heteroreceptors in rat iris) and M3 receptors (guinea-pig ileum), or at the muscarinic receptors in the guinea-pig uterus. The methacholine-induced contraction of the uterus from immature guinea-pigs was competitively antagonized by pirenzepine (6.

Muscarinic receptors of resistance vessels (submucosal arterioles, outside diameter 50-75 microns) from the guinea-pig small intestine were investigated in vitro using a computer-assisted videomicroscopy system (Diamtrak). The muscarinic receptor which mediates vasodilation of precontracted [U-46619 (300 nM) or (-)-noradrenaline (10 microM)] arterioles was characterized with several muscarinic agonists and subtype-selective antagonists. The following agonists all produced equivalent maximum vasodilation (given in rank order of potency): acetylcholine = arecaidine propargyl ester (APE) greater than oxotremorine = (+/-)-muscarine = (+/-)-methacholine greater than carbachol greater than 4-[[N-(4-chlorophenyl)carbamoyl]oxy]-2-butynyltrimethylammonium iodide (4-Cl-McN-A-343).

Muscarinic agonists evoke a voltage-dependent inward current in motoneurons of the lobster cardiac ganglion. In this study, a number of drugs, known to show muscarinic receptor subtype selectivity in mammals, were used to determine the pharmacological profile of the muscarinic receptor on lobster motoneurons. The neurons were held under voltage-clamp, and various concentrations of the antagonists were applied in the presence of 1 mM methacholine.
