摘要: Abstract The rat α9 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) was expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes and tested for its sensitivity to a wide variety of cholinergic compounds. Acetylcholine (ACh), carbachol, choline methylcarbachol elicited agonist-evoked currents, giving maximal or near responses. Both the agonist suberyldicholine as well muscarinic agonists McN-A-343 methylfurtrethonium behaved weak partial receptor. Most classical compounds tested, being either (nicotine, epibatidine, cytisine, methyllycaconitine, mecamylamine, dihydro-β-erythroidine), (muscarine, atropine, gallamine, pilocarpine, bethanechol) antagonists, blocked recombinant Block by nicotine, methyllycaconitine atropine overcome at high ACh concentrations, suggesting competitive type block. present results indicate that displays mixed nicotinic–muscarinic features resemble ones described cochlear outer hair cells (OHCs). We suggest contains structural determinants responsible pharmacological properties native
