1. The nicotinic receptors are considered cholinergic receptors , since they respond to acetylcholine. 2. Galantamine is a potent nicotinic cholinergic receptors on cholinergic neurons to increase acetylcholine release. 3. Very few parts of the sympathetic system use cholinergic receptors . 4. The cholinergic receptor types affected are the muscarinic receptors. 5. It was also shown that, while stimulating muscarinic cholinergic receptors in cultured pheochromocytoma cells " increases" 6. It has also been shown that, while stimulating muscarinic cholinergic receptors in cultured pheochromocytoma cells " increases" 7. Stimulation of the latter leads to vessel relaxation, while stimulation of the cholinergic receptors leads to contraction. 8. Throughout the body, there are protein units called nicotinic cholinergic receptors on the surface of many types of cells. 9. In the cat and rat, carbachol is well known for its ability to induce cholinergic receptors ( mAChRs ). 10. It acts by combining with the cholinergic receptor sites in muscle and competitively blocking the transmitter action of acetylcholine.
