Background and purpose:Stimulation of muscarinic receptors in intestinal smooth muscle cells results in suppression of voltage-gated Ca2+ channel currents (I-Ca). However, little is known about which receptor subtype(s) mediate this effect.Experimental approach:The effect of carbachol on I-Ca was studied in single intestinal myocytes from M-2 or M-3 muscarinic receptor knockout (KO) and wild-type (WT) mice.Key results:In M2KO cells, carbachol (100 mu M) induced a sustained I-Ca suppression as seen in WT cells. However, this suppression was significantly smaller than that seen in WT cells. Carbachol also suppressed I-Ca in M3KO cells, but with a phasic time course. In M-2/M-3-double KO cells, carbachol had no effect on I-Ca. The extent of the suppression in WT cells was greater than the sum of the I-Ca suppressions in M2KO and M3KO cells, indicating that it is not a simple mixture of M-2 and M-3 receptor responses. The G(i/o) inhibitor, Pertussis toxin, abolished the I-Ca suppression in M3KO cells, but not in M2KO cells. In contrast, the G(q/11) inhibitor YM-254890 strongly inhibited only the I-Ca suppression in M2KO cells. Suppression of I-Ca in WT cells was markedly reduced by either Pertussis toxin or YM-254890.Conclusion and implications:In intestinal myocytes, M-2 receptors mediate a phasic I-Ca suppression via G(i/o) proteins, while M-3 receptors mediate a sustained I-Ca suppression via G(q/11) proteins. In addition, another pathway that requires both M-2/G(i/o) and M-3/G(q/11) systems may be operative in inducing a sustained I-Ca suppression.
