To examine cholinergic signal transduction pathways that modulate ciliary beat frequency (CBF), cultured ovine tracheal epithelial cells were imaged using a combination of phase-contrast (CBF) and fluorescence (Ca2+) microscopy techniques. In single cells, acetylcholine (ACh) transiently increased CBF and intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), mainly by Ca2+ release from internal stores, with a small delayed contribution from Ca2+ influx. Nicotinic agonists did not alter CBF or [Ca2+]i, whereas atropine blocked the ACh-stimulated transients, consistent with the involvement of muscarinic receptors. 4-Diphenylacetoxy-N-methylpiperidine methiodide was approximately 100 times more potent than pirenzepine in inhibiting the ACh-induced [Ca2+]i peaks, suggesting that the receptor is a pharmacologically defined (M3) subtype. Interestingly, after depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores by thapsigargin, ACh caused a rapid transient decrease in both CBF and [Ca2+]i, again with an antagonist profile of M3 receptors. We conclude that activation of M3 muscarinic receptors initiates specific signaling pathways that act simultaneously to increase and decrease [Ca2+]i and CBF.
