Scope note: Proteínas de la superficie celular con alta afinidad por la acetilcolina y que generan cambios intracelulares que influyen en el comportamiento de las células. Los receptores colinérgicos se dividen en dos clases principales, muscarínicos y nicotínicos, esta división originalmente se basa en su afinidad por la nicotina y la muscarina. Cada grupo se subdivide de acuerdo con la farmacología, localización, modo de acción y/o biología molecular.

Scope note: Cell surface proteins that bind acetylcholine with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes influencing the behavior of cells. Cholinergic receptors are divided into two major classes, muscarinic and nicotinic, based originally on their affinity for nicotine and muscarine. Each group is further subdivided based on pharmacology, location, mode of action, and/or molecular biology.
