Cardiac activity and blood pressure in rats during selective blockade of various subtypes of muscarinic cholinoceptors

Abstract: Cardiac activity and blood pressure in adult rats were recorded during selective blockade of cholinoceptors. Blockade of muscarinic M1 and M2-cholinoceptors had little effect on cardiac activity. Blockade of muscarinic M3-cholinoceptors was followed by heart acceleration. The data suggest that the tonic inhibitory influence of the vagus nerve is mediated via cardiac muscarinic M3-cholinoceptors. Electrostimulation of the right vagus nerve during selective blockade of various subtypes of muscarinic cholinocepto… Show more

“…The observed effects of VNS on RSA magnitude may result from (1) activation of brainstem loop via stimulation of afferent fibers (Paintal, 1973; Kubin et al., 2006; Osharina et al., 2006), (2) alteration of vagal afferent tone (Fouad et al., 1984; Pomeranz et al., 1985; Hayano et al., 1991), which modulates specific tonic and phasic parasympathetic efferent fibers (Jones et al., 1998; Golberger et al., 1994; 2001; Hayano & Yasuma, 2003), (3) activation of efferent vagal fibers in the case of partial VNS anodal block (D’Angelo, 1978; Tai & Jiang, 1994; Jones et al., 1995; Vuckovic et al., 2005) resulting in disturbance or abolition of physiologic efferent phasic and tonic firing (Guz et al., 1964; Banzett et al., 1999; Zefirov et al., 2006) or additive excitatory input to the heart, or (4) a combination of both efferent and afferent vagal fiber stimulation. In addition, changes in respiration due to VNS could also modify RSA.…”

“…Their influences are realized via interaction with adrenoceptors and muscarinic cholinergic receptors (M-ChR) on cardiac cells [1,8,10]. There are at least 9 subtypes of adrenoceptors and 5 subtypes of M-ChR.…”
