Several neurophysiological studies have attempted to differentiate the relative
preponderance of nicotinic or muscarinic cholinergic receptors in different brain areas1, 16 …

Previous studies have demonstrated that muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChR)
expressed in chick heart are pharmacologically, immunologically, and biochemically distinct …

Three classes of muscarinic receptors in mammalian brain have been postulated on the
basis of equilibrium and kinetic binding data. However, equilibrium binding assays alone …

Muscarinic autoreceptors located on cholinergic nerve terminals are involved in the
inhibitory feedback regulation of acetylcholine (ACh) release. Establishing the subtype …

Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors contain a region encompassing the second and third
transmembrane domains that is rich in conserved aspartic acid residues. To investigate the …

Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChR) are G protein-coupled receptors which are
highly conserved across mammalian species. Chick cardiac mAChR, however, have been …

A genomic clone encoding the gene for the mouse M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor
has been isolated, placed under the control of the zinc-inducible mouse metallothionein …

A novel compound, 3-(2'-aminobenzhydryloxy)-tropane (ABT), and an ABT-agarose gel
were synthesized and used for the purification of solubilized muscarinic receptors. ABT had …

The distributions of the transcripts encoding the five dopamine receptors have been
determined in the human striatum and selected regions of the neocortex. In the striatum …

In the present study we investigated the nature of the muscarinic receptors present in the
hippocampus, sympathetic ganglia, atria and salivary glands of the rat. The heterogeneity of …
