Long-acting muscarinic antagonists: a potential add-on therapy in the treatment of asthma? [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Review, 2016
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways that is a major global burden on both individuals and healthcare systems. Despite guideline-directed treatment, a significant proportion of patients with asthma do not achieve control. This review focuses on the potential use of long-acting anticholinergics as bronchodilators in the treatment of ...

Long-acting muscarinic receptor antagonists for the treatment of chronic airway diseases [PDF]

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Chronic Disease, 2014
Acetylcholine (neuronal and non-neuronal origin) regulates bronchoconstriction, and mucus secretion. It has an inflammatory effect by inducing attraction, survival and cytokine release from inflammatory cells. Muscarinic receptors throughout the bronchial tree are mainly restricted to muscarinic M1, M2 and M3 receptors.

Emerging role of long acting muscarinic antagonists for asthma [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2013
Acetlycholine is involved in the control of airway smooth muscle constriction and in recruitment of inflammatory cells via neuronal and paracrine effects on muscarinic type 3 receptors. Long acting muscarinic antagonists (LAMA) are well established in guidelines for COPD but are not currently licensed for use in asthma. There are emerging data from key

Issues on Safety of Long-Acting Muscarinic Antagonist

open access: yesTuberculosis and Respiratory Diseases, 2011
The prevention of and the controlling of symptoms, reductions in the frequency of exacerbations, and disease severity are central to the pharmacologic therapy of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). COPD patients are inclined to be older, have more comorbidities, and use polypharmacy as a result.

The effect of glycopyrronium and indacaterol, as monotherapy and in combination, on the methacholine dose-response curve of mild asthmatics: a randomized three-way crossover study

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2017
Background Methacholine dose-response curves illustrate pharmacologic bronchoprotection against methacholine-induced airway hyperresponsiveness and can be used to quantitate changes in airway sensitivity (position), reactivity (slope), and maximal ...

Normalisation of airflow limitation in asthma: Post‐hoc analyses of TRIMARAN and TRIGGER

open access: yesClinical and Translational Allergy, 2022
Background In asthma, persistent airflow limitation (PAL) is associated with poorer control, lung function decline and exacerbations. Using post‐hoc analyses we evaluated: the relationship between post‐salbutamol PAL at screening, airflow limitation (AL)

Interactions between glycopyrronium and indacaterol on cholinergic neurotransmission and contractile response in bovine trachealis

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2017
Background Muscarinic-receptor antagonists and β-adrenoceptor agonists are used, alone or in combination, as first-line treatment for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
