Relaxant Effect of Urginea maritima on Tracheal Smooth Muscle Mediated by the Effect on Beta-2 Adrenergic, Muscarinic Receptors and Calcium and Potassium Channels

Figure 5

Concentration-response relaxant effects (mean ± SEM) of U. maritima extract on 60 mM KCl-induced contraction of TSM in nonincubated and chlorpheniramine-incubated (1 μM) (a) and indomethacin-incubated TSM (1 μM) (b) (n = 8 for all groups). and , compared to the effect of saline (NS), + compared to the effect of the extract on nonincubated tissues. ANOVA with the Tukey–Kramer post hoc test was used for statistical comparison.
