Investigating the Unbinding of Muscarinic Antagonists from the Muscarinic 3 Receptor. [PDF]
Patient symptom relief is often heavily influenced by the residence time of the inhibitor-target complex. For the human muscarinic receptor 3 (hMR3), tiotropium is a long-acting bronchodilator used in conditions such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The mechanistic insights into this inhibitor remain unclear; specifically, the

Isomerization of the muscarinic receptor . antagonist complex.
The mechanism of binding of two antagonists, 3-quinuclidinyl benzilate and N-methyl-4-piperidinyl benzilate, to the muscarinic receptor was studied. The pseudo-first order rate constant of association showed a hyperbolic dependence on the concentration of the antagonist(s) indicating that the interaction involves two equilibria.

Molecular probes for muscarinic receptors: Functionalized congeners of selective muscarinic antagonists [PDF]
The muscarinic agonist oxotremorine and the tricyclic muscarinic antagonists pirenzepine and telenzepine have been derivatized using a functionalized congener approach for the purpose of synthesizing high affinity ligand probes that are suitable for conjugation with prosthetic groups, for receptor cross-linking, fluorescent and radioactive detection ...

The muscarinic antagonists scopolamine and atropine are competitive antagonists at 5-HT3 receptors. [PDF]
Scopolamine is a high affinity muscarinic antagonist that is used for the prevention of post-operative nausea and vomiting. 5-HT3 receptor antagonists are used for the same purpose and are structurally related to scopolamine. To examine whether 5-HT3 receptors are affected by scopolamine we examined the effects of this drug on the electrophysiological ...

Migrastatin Acts as a Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor Antagonist [PDF]
Migrastatin and its analogs have various biological activities such as inhibition of cell migration and anchorage-independent growth of cancer cells. Although its biosynthesis and chemical synthesis have been under investigation, little is known about the biological target of migrastatin.

Understanding the role of long-acting muscarinic antagonists in asthma treatment [PDF]
Objective: Long-acting muscarinic antagonists (LAMAs) have been used in the treatment of obstructive pulmonary diseases for years. Long-acting muscarinic antagonists were previously mainly used as bronchodilators in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,

The pharmacological rationale for combining muscarinic receptor antagonists and beta-adrenoceptor agonists in the treatment of airway and bladder disease [PDF]
Muscarinic receptor antagonists and beta-adrenoceptor agonists are used in the treatment of obstructive airway disease and overactive bladder syndrome. Here we review the pharmacological rationale for their combination.
