Abstract

This study was planned to determine whether the possible role of 3':5'-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cylic GMP) on acetylcholine(ACh) action in isolated rat duodenum. Therefore, sodium nitroprusside(SNP) and methylene blue(MB) were used as a guanylate cyclase activator and inhibitor respectively. MB caused significant fall in ACh-induced contraction peaks, whereas SNP did not alter them. These results suggested that cyclic GMP may play a role for ACh action in isolated duodenum smooth muscle. However further experiments are necessary to determine whether a causal relationship exists between cyclic GMP and ACh action.
