Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Muscarinic receptors , or mAChRs , are G protein-coupled acetylcholine receptors found in the plasma membranes of certain neurons and other cells. They play several roles, including acting as the m...

Acetylcholine receptor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An acetylcholine receptor (abbreviated AChR ) is an integral membrane protein that responds to the binding of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter. Like other transmembrane receptors, acetylcholine r...

Certain organophosphate (OP) cholinesterase inhibitors (ChEIs) are also known to bind to the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR). The functional consequences of such binding were investigated here using the following OP compounds: VX, echothiophate, sarin, and soman.

[(35)S]GTPgammaS binding assays using human M(2) receptors overexpressed in CHO cells revealed that a weak intrinsic efficacy was preserved in 8b-10b. Thus, attaching muscarinic allosteric antagonist moieties to orthosteric muscarinic agonists may lead to hybrid compounds in which functions of both components are mixed.

PSNS control of the heart is primarily mediated by the M2 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (M2-AChR) (9, 18). M2-AChR belongs to the superfamily of G protein-coupled receptors. Upon stimulation, M2-AChR activates heterotrimeric G proteins of the Gi/o family.

Cardiac regulation by the PSNS is primarily mediated by the M2 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (M2-AChR). In this study, we tested the hypothesis that lack of M2-AChR-mediated PSNS function may adversely impact cardiac ventricular function.
