MeSH Heading: Receptors, Cholinergic
Tree Number(s): D12.776.543.750.720.360
Unique ID: D011950
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D011950
Annotation: /antag = NEUROMUSCULAR BLOCKING AGENTS or NEUROMUSCULAR DEPOLARIZING AGENTS; coord IM with specific cholinergic agent (IM)
Scope Note: Cell surface proteins that bind acetylcholine with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes influencing the behavior of cells. Cholinergic receptors are divided into two major classes, muscarinic and nicotinic, based originally on their affinity for nicotine and muscarine. Each group is further subdivided based on pharmacology, location, mode of action, and/or molecular biology.
