mAChR

Oxitropium bromide is a muscarinic antagonist which blocks musucarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChR). Incubation with oxitropium bromide of untreated diaphragm muscle and diaphragm muscle injected with endotoxin does not increase the force-frequency curves dose-dependently in vitro ; however, it causes both types of muscle to be fatigue resistant.

Oxitropium bromide inhalation shifts force-frequency curves upward at 2 h after inhalation and inhibits the decrease of force-frequency curves due to endotoxin injection in vivo . Oxitropium bromide strongly and persistently inhibits the acetylcholine (ACh)-induced resistance. The increase in resistance induced by histamine, serotonin, leukotriene D4 or antigen is prevented by oxitropium bromide oxitropium bromide. Inhalation of the anticholinergic agent oxitropium bromide at doses of 1.5 μg and higher greatly attenuates the decrease in mucus score produced by intravenous histamine but not by inhaled histamine.
