This work explored the role of the cholinergic pathway, assessed at a post-synaptic level by the use of isolated smooth muscle cells, in the impairment of antral motility associated with diabetic gastroparesis. Contractile response to carbachol--but not to erythromycin, a motilin receptor agonist--w
