Abstract
The isolated main bronchi of the guinea-pig respond to electrical field stimulation with a twitch followed by a slow contraction. Atropine blocked the slow contraction. The substance P antagonist, (D-Pro2, D- Trp7 ,9)-SP, greatly reduced the atropine-resistant contraction. The results suggest the involvement of substance P in non-cholinergic neurotransmission in the guinea-pig airways.Entities:
