Q

Nicotinic receptor is also an

A
  • Ion channel for Na
  • When open, Na ions flow through down its electrochemical gradient -> a change in membrane potential -> action potential

Q

Mechanism of action for M2

A

In the heart: Sa node

  • K channels open
  • This leads to K efflux, hyperpolarization of plasma membrane
  • Slow rate of depolarization
  • Decrease in heart rate
