I've been studying the autonomic nervous system, and particularly the various ACh receptors and the drugs and substances, for alzheimers, parkinsons, IBS, cardiac drugs, bronchodilators, etc, background for famous drugs like scopolamine/atropine because this needs to be written and existing stuff tied together in Wikipedia and it struck me as a current weakness. I'm starting with muscarinic receptors, and hope to edit nicotinic receptors, and to a lesser extent, ach, sympathetic/parasympathetic/autonomous nervous system atropine/scopolamine, and to crete pages for dicycloverine/milverine/cimetropium etc, etc. This will take some time though....

Hopefully you will forgive me using this discussion page to note some research which will be valuable in future (to myself, or some other poor sod), but which don't yet fit into the article itself.

  • m1: not PTX, not CTX, G_q,G_i, slow EPSP at ganglion
  • m2: PTX sensitive, not CTX, G_i,G_o,G_z
  • m3: not PTX, not CTX, G_q,G_i
  • m4: PTX sensitive, G_i, G_s? (would be CTX for G_s).
  • m5: not PTX
