Methacholine chloride  (Synonyms: Acetyl-β-methylcholine chloride)

Cat. No.: HY-A0083 Purity: ≥98.0%
COA Handling Instructions

Methacholine (Acetyl-β-methylcholine) choride is a potent muscarinic-3 (M3) agonist. Methacholine choride acts directly on acetylcholine receptors on smooth muscle causing bronchoconstriction and airway narrowing. Methacholine choride shows a high sensitivity to identify bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR). Methacholine choride can be used to measure airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) as a diagnostic aid in the assessment of individuals with asthma-like symptoms and normal resting expiratory flow rates.

Description

Methacholine (Acetyl-β-methylcholine) choride is a potent muscarinic-3 (M3) agonist. Methacholine choride acts directly on acetylcholine receptors on smooth muscle causing bronchoconstriction and airway narrowing. Methacholine choride shows a high sensitivity to identify bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR). Methacholine choride can be used to measure airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) as a diagnostic aid in the assessment of individuals with asthma-like symptoms and normal resting expiratory flow rates[1][2][3][4].

In Vivo

Methacholine choride (0.5 µg/kg plus 5 µg/kg/min for 30 min) induces bronchoconstriction in dogs[4].
Methacholine choride (0.5 mg/kg; i.v.) induces bronchoconstriction was inhibited by bradykinin (4-40 µg/kg; i.v.) in a a dose-dependent manner in mouse[5].

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: 9-week female BALB/c mice[6]
Dosage: 0.03, 0.1, 0.3, 1 mg/kg

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
