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.

体内研究(In Vivo)
Methacholine choride (0.5 μg/kg plus 5 μg/kg/min for 30 min) induces bronchoconstriction in dogs.
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. has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
