| mAChR | Muscarinic receptor |
| muscarinic antagonist | Drugs which bind with muscarinic cholinergic receptors but do not activate them, thus preventing access to acetylcholine; examples include atropine, scopolamine, propantheline, and pirenzepine. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| muscarinic antagonists | Drugs that bind to but do not activate muscarinic cholinergic receptors (receptors, muscarinic), thereby blocking the actions of endogenous acetycholine or exogenous agonists. Muscarinic antagonists have widespread effects including actions on the iris and ciliary muscle of the eye, the heart and blood vessels, secretions of the respiratory tract, GI system, and salivary glands, GI motility, urinary bladder tone, and the central nervous system. Antagonists that discriminate among the various muscarinic receptor subtypes and might allow better control of peripheral and central actions are under development. (12 Dec 1998) |
| receptors, muscarinic | One of the two major classes of cholinergic receptors. Muscarinic receptors were originally defined by their preference for muscarine over nicotine. There are several subtypes (usually m1, m2, m3...) that are characterised by their cellular actions, pharmacology, and molecular biology. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| muscarinic | 1. Having a muscarine-like action, i.e., producing effects that resemble postganglionic parasympathetic stimulation. 2. An agent that stimulates the postganglionic parasympathetic receptor. See: muscarine, nicotinic. (05 Mar 2000) |
| muscarinic acetylcholine receptor | Distinct from the nicotinic ACh receptor in having no intrinsic ion channel, the receptor is formed from one protein chain with 7 transmembrane regions. The receptors produce their effect via activation of GTP-binding proteins. (18 Nov 1997) |
| muscarinic agonist | Drugs that bind to and activate muscarinic cholinergic receptors (receptors, muscarinic). Muscarinic agonists are most commonly used when it is desirable to increase smooth muscle tone, especially in the GI tract, urinary bladder and the eye. They may also be used to reduce heart rate. (12 Dec 1998) |
| muscarinic receptor kinase | <enzyme> Phosphorylates muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and beta-adrenergic receptors Registry number: EC 2.7.- Synonym: muscarinic acetylcholine receptor kinase, machr kinase (26 Jun 1999) |
| muscarinic receptors | Membrane-bound proteins whose extracellular domain contains a recognition site for acetylcholine (ACh); combination of Ach with the receptor initiates a physiologic change (slowing of heart rate, increased glandular secretory activity and stimulation of smooth muscle contractions); changes are observed after treatment with the mushroom alkaloid, muscarine. Muscarinic receptors are to be distinguished from nicotinic receptors. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aldosterone antagonist | An agent that opposes the action of the adrenal hormone aldosterone on renal tubular mineralocorticoid retention; these agents, e.g., spironolactone, are useful in treating the hypertension of primary hyperaldosteronism, or the sodium retention of secondary hyperaldosteronism. (05 Mar 2000) |
| antagonist | <pharmacology> A substance that tends to nullify the action of another, as a drug that binds to a cell receptor without eliciting a biological response. Origin: Gr. Antagonistes = an opponent (18 Nov 1997) |
| associated antagonist | One of two muscles or groups of muscles which pull in nearly opposite directions, but which, when acting together, move the part in a path between their diverging lines of action. (05 Mar 2000) |
| beta-adrenoreceptor antagonist | A class of drugs that compete with beta-adrenergic agonists for available receptor sites; some compete for both b1 and b2 receptors (e.g., propranolol) while others are primarily either b1 (e.g., metoprolol) or b2 blockers; used in the treatment of a variety of cardiovascular diseases where beta-adrenergic blockade is desirable. Synonym: beta-adrenergic receptor blocking agent, beta-adrenoreceptor antagonist, beta-blocker. (05 Mar 2000) |
| calcium antagonist | calcium channel-blocking agent |
| calcium channel antagonist | <pharmacology> A class of drugs that act by selective inhibition of calcium ion influx through or across cell membranes or on the release and binding of calcium in intracellular pools. Calcium channel blockers are used primarily in the treatment of certain heart conditions and stroke. As they are inducers of vascular and other smooth muscle relaxation, they are also used in the treatment of hypertension and cerebrovascular spasms, as myocardial protective agents, and in the relaxation of uterine spasms. Synonym: calcium antagonist, calcium channel-blocker, slow channel-blocking agent. (12 May 2002) |
| mixed opioid agonist-antagonist | <pharmacology> A compound that has an affinity for two or more types of opioid receptors and blocks opioid effects on one receptor type while producing opioid effects on a second receptor type. (13 Nov 1997) |
| competitive antagonist | An antimetabolite. (05 Mar 2000) |
| H2 antagonist | <pharmacology> A class of anti-ulcer medication which work through the inhibition of basal and nocturnal gastric acid secretion by competitive inhibition of the action of histamine at histamine H2 receptor sites on the parietal cells. Drugs of this type block gastric acid secretion and are therefore clinically useful in treating duodenal ulcers. Examples include cimetidine (Tagamet), famotidine (Pepcid), nizatidine (Axid) and ranitidine (Zantac). (27 Sep 1997) |
