Muscarine (100 µM) induces an intracellular calcium signal amplitude similar to the one triggered by 10 µM acetylcholine in brain miero vascular endothelial cells (BMVECs) and brain-derived Endothelial cells.3 (bEnd.3)[1].
Muscarine (1-30 μM; 2 min) produces a dose-dependent hyperpolarization in a sub-population of the nucleus raphe magnus (NRM) cells that contain 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) on the NRM neurons with an EC50 value of 2.7 µM[2].
