The Muscarinic Receptors

The Muscarinic Receptors by Joan Heller Brown.

Research on muscarinic receptors is advancing at an extraordinary rate. Ten years ago, the existence of muscarinic receptor sub­ types was a logical assumption with only scattered experimen­ tal support. The discovery that pirenzepine recognized apparent heterogeneity in muscarinic binding sites inf...
