Q

Muscarinic mechanism of action

A

g protein and releases second messengers DAG and IP3. IP3 causes release of calcium from storage sites and causes smooth muscle contraction

Q

Nicotinic mechanism of action

A

Ach receptor is located on channel protein that is selective for sodium and potassium. Receptor activation causes depolarization with influx of Na+ causes EPSP
