N2 - Airway smooth muscle is richly endowed with muscarinic receptors of the M(2) and M(3) subtype. Stimulation of these receptors inhibits large conductance calcium-activated K(+) (BK) channels, a negative feed back regulator, in a pertussis toxin-sensitive manner and thus facilitates contraction. The underlying mechanism, however, is unknown. We therefore studied the activity of bovine trachea BK channels in HEK293 cells expressing the M(2) or M(3) receptor (M(2)R or M(3)R). In M(2)R- but not M(3)R-expressing cells, maximal effective concentrations of carbamoylcholine (CCh) inhibited whole cell BK currents by 53%. This M(2)R-induced inhibition was abolished by pertussis toxin treatment or overexpression of the Gbetagamma scavenger transducin-alpha. In inside-out patches, direct application of 300 nm purified Gbetagamma decreased channel open probability by 55%. The physical interaction of Gbetagamma with BK channels was confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation. Interestingly, inhibition of phospholipase C as well as protein kinase C activities also reversed the CCh effect but to a smaller (approximately 20%) extent. Mouse tracheal cells responded similarly to CCh, purified Gbetagamma and phospholipase C/protein kinase C inhibition as M(2)R-expressing HEK293 cells. Our results demonstrate that airway M(2)Rs inhibit BK channels by a dual, Gbetagamma-mediated mechanism, a direct membrane-delimited interaction, and the activation of the phospholipase C/protein kinase C pathway.
