p-Fluorohexahydro-sila-difenidol hydrochloride (pFHHSid) has been used:
as the M3/muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist to study its involvement in carbachol induced Egr-1 biosynthesis using human neuroblastoma cells[1]
as M3 receptor antagonist to test its involvement on N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide (DEET)-induced angiogenesis in human umbilical venous endothelial cells (HUVEC)[2]
in a study to examine the role of aclidinium on human fibroblast to myofibroblast[3]
Biochem/physiol Actions
High affinity M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist.

1 The M3 muscarinic receptor subtype is widely accepted as the receptor on smooth muscle cells that mediates cholinergic contraction of the normal urinary bladder and other smooth muscle tissues, however, we have found that the M2 receptor participates in
The effects of muscarinic receptor antagonists on responses to electrical stimulation of the chorda-lingual nerve were determined in pentobarbitone-anesthetized sheep and correlated to the morphology of tissue specimens. Stimulation at 2 Hz continuously, or in bursts of 1 s at

The Fallopian tubes are sparsely innervated with cholinergic nerve fibers. Acetylcholine is released from these nerves and contracts the smooth muscles of the tubes. The aim of our study was to investigate the effect of acetylcholine on the isthmic segment
The Fallopian tubes are scarcely innervated with cholinergic nerve fibers. Acetylcholine released from these nerves contracts smooth muscles of the tubes. The aim of our study was to investigate the effect of acetylcholine on the Fallopian tubes using selective antagonists

Carbachol-mediated activation of type M(3) muscarinic acetylcholine receptors induces the biosynthesis of the transcription factor Egr-1 in human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells involving an activation of extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase. Carbachol triggered the phosphorylation of the ternary complex factor Elk-1, a
