Acetylcholine receptors

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. B, Biological Sciences, 1975
a-Bungarotoxin is one of a class of proteins, isolated from snake venoms, which antagonize the action of acetylcholine at vertebrate neuromuscular junctions and ‘electroplaques' of electric fish. a-Bungarotoxin blocks acetylcholine action irreversibly and may be labelled with either 125 I or 3

Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptors

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2006
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors mediate diverse physiological functions. At present, five receptor subtypes (M(1) - M(5)) have been identified. The odd-numbered receptors (M(1), M(3), and M(5)) are preferentially coupled to G(q/11) and activate phospholipase C, which initiates the phosphatidylinositol trisphosphate cascade leading to intracellular ...

Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor

Progress in Neurobiology, 1978
ABSTRACT Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors from rat cerebral cortex and small intestine were studied by the high affinity and high specific activity antagonists 3 H-3-quinuclidinyl benzilate (3-QNB) (29.4 Ci/mmol) and 3 H-N-methyl-4-piperidinyl benzilate (4-NMPB) (55.4 Ci/mmol).

Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors

2003
Publisher Summary This chapter deals with nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are cholinergic receptors that form ligand-gated ion channels in the plasma membranes of certain neurons and on the postsynaptic side of the neuromuscular junction. As ionotropic receptors, nAChRs are directly linked to ion channels

Isolation of Acetylcholine Receptors

Annual Review of Pharmacology, 1972
When ACh acts in an excitatory way, it increases the conductance of a post-synaptic membrane for Na+ and K+, leading to membrane depolariza­ tion. We shall use the term acetylcholine receptor (AChR) for those ma­ cromolecules involved in this transduction that bear the recognition site( s) for ACh and other cholinergic ligands.
