4 Preface The differentiation between the muscarinic and the nicotinic effects of acetylcholine led to the subdivision of the cholinergic nervous system into two categories. Further studies showed that stimulating and inhibiting muscarinic effects could be demonstrated in different organs. For instance, gastric secretion and gastrointestinal motility are stimulated, while heart rate and the vascular musculature are inhibited. For decades, it could not be determined whether the various effects were mediated by different subgroups of muscarinic receptors, but eventually, with the availability of agonists and antagonists to muscarinic receptors, and using various techniques, the existence of at least two such subgroups could be ascertained.. Mt receptors are defined by their high affinity for the antagonist pirenzipine in comparison to M2 receptors. This subdivision of muscarinic receptors has since been proved beyond doubt by experiments in vivo and in vitro, by receptor binding studies, by histoautoradiography, and by electrophysiological studies. However, these different classes of muscarinic receptors have not been found to relate to different types of effects; instead both excitatory and inhibitory effects appear to be linked to each class. For example, excitation of gut motility and inhibition of cardiac contractile activities both appear to be mediated by M2 receptors, while excitation of some nerves in sympathetic ganglia and inhibition of some myenteric nerves may be mediated by Mt receptors. This volume contains the papers presented at a symposium in Berlin in March Scientists from Canada, the USA, Italy, Scandinavia, and the Federal Republic of Germany were present and contributed, and the combination of basic research in physiology and clinical applications proved to be particularly stimulating. We are grateful to Boehringer Ingelheim and Dr. Karl Thomae GmbH Biberach an der Riss for enabling the symposium to take place and to Springer-Verlag for publishing the results so swiftly.
