Muscarinic Receptors and Their Antagonists in COPD: Anti-Inflammatory and Antiremodeling Effects
Muscarinic receptors are expressed by most cell types and mediate cellular signaling of their natural ligand acetylcholine. Thereby, they control numerous central and peripheral physiological organ responses to neuronal activity.

Abnormal extracellular ATP levels cause lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Here, we demonstrate that overexpression of ENTPD1 (CD39TG)—an ATP/ADP converting enzyme—reduces voiding frequency while increasing void volume. Conversely, ENTPD1 deficiency results in frequent, small‐volume voiding.
