title: Apparent noncompetitive antagonism of muscarinic receptor mediated Ca2+ mobilization by some muscarinic antagonists.
abstract: Ca2+ mobilizations in SH-SY5Y and IMR-32 human neuroblastoma cell lines were measured using the fluorescent Ca2+ indicator fura-2. A variety of antagonists (atropine, pirenzepine, 4-DAMP and N-methyl-scopolamine) inhibited carbamyl choline-induced transient Ca2+ mobilization both in a competitive and a noncompetitive manner. The apparent noncompetitive inhibition constants were lower in IMR-32 than in SH-SY5Y cells even when the competitive inhibition constants were similar. This may relate to the previously reported differential expression of muscarinic receptor subtypes in these cell lines.
