Effects of Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists With or Without M2 Antagonist Activity on Cholinergic Reflex Bronchoconstriction in Ovalbumin-Sensitized and -Challenged Mice

To investigate whether the inhibition of muscarinic M2 receptors results in the enhancement of reflex bronchoconstriction under airway hyperresponsiveness, we evaluated the effects of muscarinic antagonists with or without M2 antagonist activity on methacholine (MCh)- and SO2-induced airway response...
