The 33 pages that link to Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor, each with the reason it gives.

• AcetylcholineBroader topic: These receptors mediate many slower acetylcholine effects in the brain, heart, and glands.

• G protein-coupled receptorBroader topic: Its subtypes show how one neurotransmitter can produce distinct GPCR-mediated responses.

• AtropineRelated: Atropine acts by competitively blocking these receptors.

• GABA receptorCompared with: It shares a metabotropic architecture with GABA-B but uses a different transmitter.

• Parasympathetic nervous systemBroader topic: These receptors mediate many organ responses to parasympathetic nerve activity.

• Nicotinic acetylcholine receptorCompared with: It responds to the same neurotransmitter but signals through slower G-protein pathways rather than an ion channel.

• Eccrine sweat glandRelated: Receptors on eccrine secretory cells translate nerve activity into fluid secretion.

• ScopolamineRelated: Scopolamine prevents acetylcholine from activating these receptors.

• Cholinergic crisisBroader topic: Overstimulation causes secretions, bronchoconstriction, slow heart rate, and other parasympathetic effects.

• Tricyclic antidepressantRelated: Antagonism at these receptors explains effects such as dry mouth, constipation, and blurred vision.

• AntiemeticRelated: Anticholinergic antiemetics act on these receptors to limit motion-sickness signals.

• Alpha-1 adrenergic receptorCompared with: Its ligand and signaling context distinguish cholinergic control from alpha-1 adrenergic control.

• SarinBroader topic: Overstimulation contributes to secretions, bronchoconstriction, and slowed heart rate.

• AnticholinergicBroader topic: Many clinically used anticholinergics block these receptors.

• DiphenhydramineRelated: Diphenhydramine blocks these receptors, producing many of its anticholinergic effects.

• AmitriptylineRelated: Amitriptyline’s blockade of these receptors causes anticholinergic effects such as dry mouth and constipation.

• Anticholinergic syndromeBroader topic: Antimuscarinic drugs block these receptors, producing many hallmark features of the syndrome.

• ClozapineRelated: Clozapine's muscarinic actions contribute to effects such as constipation and changes in salivation.

• Atropa belladonnaNarrower topic: Belladonna alkaloids cause many symptoms by blocking these receptors.

• Tropane alkaloidRelated: Atropine and scopolamine produce many effects by blocking this receptor family.

• ChlorpromazineRelated: Antimuscarinic activity helps explain dry mouth, blurred vision, and constipation.

• HydroxyzineRelated: Hydroxyzine's anticholinergic activity can contribute to dry mouth and other side effects.

• OlanzapineRelated: Olanzapine’s antimuscarinic activity can contribute to dry mouth, constipation, and cognitive effects.

• ClomipramineRelated: Clomipramine blocks these receptors, producing anticholinergic effects.

• ImipramineRelated: Imipramine's blockade contributes to dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision, and other anticholinergic effects.

• NeostigmineRelated: Increased acetylcholine also stimulates these receptors, causing muscarinic adverse effects.

• DonepezilBroader topic: Increased acetylcholine can stimulate these receptors, contributing to gastrointestinal and other side effects.

• HyoscyamineRelated: Hyoscyamine reduces parasympathetic signaling by blocking these receptors.

• PilocarpineRelated: Pilocarpine activates these receptors to produce glandular secretion and eye-muscle contraction.

• Betel nut chewingNarrower topic: Arecoline stimulates these receptors, linking the nut’s chemistry to bodily effects.

• Henry Hallett DaleBroader topic: Dale distinguished muscarine-like effects from nicotine-like effects of acetylcholine.

• CyclizineRelated: Cyclizine’s antimuscarinic activity contributes to its effects on motion-related nausea and its side effects.

• MuscarineBroader topic: Muscarine produces its effects by activating this receptor family.
