Does not support clinical use in airway disease; leaves open mechanistic role of cGMP in human smooth muscle Cl- currents.
NO donors inhibit Ca2+-dependent Cl- currents in cat tracheal smooth muscle via a cGMP-dependent but G-kinase-independent mechanism operating between muscarinic and IP3 receptors.
Waniishi et al. (1998) studied this question.
