mAChRs (muscarinic acetylcholine receptors) are acetylcholine receptors that form G protein-receptor complexes in the cell membranes of certainneurons and other cells. They play several roles, including acting as the main end-receptor stimulated by acetylcholine released from postganglionic fibersin the parasympathetic nervous system. mAChRs are named as such because they are more sensitive to muscarine than to nicotine. Their counterparts are nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), receptor ion channels that are also important in the autonomic nervous system. Many drugs and other substances (for example pilocarpineand scopolamine) manipulate these two distinct receptors by acting as selective agonists or antagonists. Acetylcholine (ACh) is a neurotransmitter found extensively in the brain and the autonomic ganglia.

    Amitriptyline
    		Antagonist 99.94%
    Amitriptyline is an orally active tricyclic antidepressant (TCA). Amitriptyline mainly exerts its antidepressant effect by blocking SERT (Ki = 3.45 nM) and NET (Ki = 13.3 nM), thereby increasing the concentrations of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) in the synaptic cleft. Amitriptyline is also an agonist at α2A and TrkA/TrkB receptors, thereby exerting analgesic and neurotrophic activities (inhibiting cell apoptosis). Amitriptyline can reduce inflammation, angiogenesis and fibrosis. Amitriptyline binds to DAT (with Ki = 2.58 μM). Amitriptyline has high affinity for a series of receptors and can antagonize muscarinic cholinergic receptors (M1/M2/M3/M4/M5 receptors) (Ki = 11-24 nM), H1 receptors (Ki = 0.5-1.1 nM), adrenergic α1 receptors (Ki = 4.4 nM), etc., resulting in a series of side effects. Amitriptyline can block sodium channels and hERG potassium channel (IC50 = 4.78 μM) and it has cardiotoxicity.
