The interaction of contractile agonists on the relaxation elicited with isoproterenol (ISO) was studied in 112 tracheal smooth muscle (TSM) strips from 20 dogs in vitro. Strips were contracted to the same active target tension (TT) with acetylcholine (ACh), histamine (HIS), serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT), potassium chloride (KCl), or the combinations of ACh + HIS, ACh + 5-HT, HIS + KCl, HIS + 5-HT (50% TT from each agonist). Although a less potent agonist, adding HIS to cause 50% of the TT reduced the concentration of ACh to elicit the remaining 50% TT and substantially altered relaxation by ISO compared with HIS alone [concentration required to achieve 50% relaxation (RC50) = 9.2 +/- 2.4 X 10(-8) vs. 9.0 +/- 4.4 X 10(-9) M to HIS alone; P less than 0.003]. Relaxation for TSM strips contracted with ACh + HIS was comparable to that elicited from the same TT with ACh alone, although concentrations required in combination were lower than for either agonist alone. Trachealis strips contracted equivalently with KCl + HIS also had augmented contraction and attenuated relaxation (RC50 = 3.7 +/- 0.8 X 10(-8) M; P less than 0.015 vs. HIS alone). However, combinations of 5-HT + ACh and 5-HT + HIS did not alter relaxation to ISO from that elicited by the weaker agonist alone. We demonstrate that TSM relaxation depends on the combination of agonists eliciting contraction and may be inhibited substantially by interactions among contractile agonists.
