Difference between Amanita muscaria and Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor

Amanita muscaria vs. Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor

Amanita muscaria, commonly known as the fly agaric or fly amanita, is a basidiomycete mushroom, one of many in the genus Amanita. Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors, or mAChRs, are acetylcholine receptors that form G protein-coupled receptor complexes in the cell membranes of certain neurons and other cells.

Similarities between Amanita muscaria and Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor

Amanita muscaria and Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Agonist, Atropine, Central nervous system, Muscarine, Neurotransmitter, Receptor antagonist.

Agonist

An agonist is a chemical that binds to a receptor and activates the receptor to produce a biological response.

Atropine

Atropine is a medication to treat certain types of nerve agent and pesticide poisonings as well as some types of slow heart rate and to decrease saliva production during surgery.

Receptor antagonist

A receptor antagonist is a type of receptor ligand or drug that blocks or dampens a biological response by binding to and blocking a receptor rather than activating it like an agonist.
