Inhibitory concentration-response curves of isoprenaline against carbachol (CCh)-induced contractions in the absence (control) and presence of different concentrations of (A) Thymus serrulatus essential oil (TS Oil) and (B) papaverine in isolated guinea-pig tracheal preparations. Values shown are mean ± SEM 3–4 individual experiments conducted on the isolated tracheal tissue preparations from 3 to 4 different guinea-pigs. ns p > 0.05, *p < 0.05, and ***p < 0.001 shows comparison of the mean of CCh-mediated inhibition by isoprenaline in the pretreated tissues with TS Oil (A) and verapamil, (B) with the respective mean of CCh-mediated inhibition by isoprenaline in control (untreated) tracheal tissues (Repeated Measures ANOVA, followed by Bonferroni post-test).
