Cholinergic receptors can be divided into two types – • muscarinic and
• nicotinic
Muscarinic receptors originally were distinguished from nicotinic receptors by the selectivity of the agonists muscarine and nicotine respectively
In tissues innervated by postganglionic parasympathetic neurons
In presynaptic noradrenergic and cholinergic nerve terminals
In non-innervated sites in vascular endothelium
In the central nervous system
There are 5 subtypes of muscarinic
receptors M1, M2, M3, M4, and M5
They mediate their effects through - G proteins coupled to -
Phospholipase C (M1,3,5),
Potassium channels (M2,4)

In sympathetic and parasympathetic ganglia
In the adrenal medulla In the neuromuscular junction of the
skeletal muscle In the central nervous system
There are two subtypes of nicotinic receptors NM and NN
The NM nicotinic receptor mediates skeletal muscle stimulation
The NN nicotinic receptor mediates stimulation of the autonomic ganglia [agonists and antagonists at this site are sometimes called ganglionic agonists and ganglionic blockers]
Nicotinic receptors are ligand - gated ion channels
Their activation results in a rapid increase in cellular permeability to sodium and calcium
nAChRs are directly coupled to cation channels
They mediate fast excitatory synaptic transmission at the neuromuscular junction, autonomic ganglia, and various sites in the central nervous system (CNS)
Muscle and neuronal nAChRs differ in their molecular structure and pharmacology
They are pentameric arrays of one to four distinct but homologous subunits, surrounding an internal channel
The α subunit has binding sites for ACh.
Agonist binding induce a conformational change that opens the channel
Antagonist may bind to these sites but do not elicit the conformational change

Therapeutic uses Name of drugs Clinical Applications
Urinary OxybutyninDarifenacinSolifenacin and Tolterodine (Tertiary amines with somewhat greater selectivity for M3 receptors )Trospium (Quaternary amine with less CNS effect)
• Urge incontinence• Postoperative spasms
Cholinergic poisoning
Atropine • Mandatory antidote for severe cholinesterase inhibitor poisoning
Pralidoxime • Usual antidote for early-stage (48 h) cholinesterase inhibitor poisoning
16
Muscarinic antagonists (parasympatholytic drugs) are competitive antagonists of ACh at muscarinic receptors
Their chemical structures usually contain ester and basic groups in the same relationship as ACh, but
They have a bulky aromatic group in place of the acetyl group
Muscarinic antagonists are sometimes called parasympatholytic because they block the effects of parasympathetic autonomic discharge
17
18
Atropine:
Atropine is the prototype drug of this group
It is an alkaloid, found in the deadly nightshade (Atropa belladonna)
Tertiary amine
Ester of tropic acid
19
The deadly nightshade (Atropa belladonna) contains mainly atropine
The thorn apple (Datura stramonium) contains mainly scopolamine
The Hyoscyamus niger contains Scopolamine (Hyoscine)
These are tertiary ammonium compounds that are sufficiently lipid-soluble to be readily absorbed from the gut or conjunctival sac
20
They also penetrate the blood-brain barrier
The quaternary derivative of atropine, atropine methonitrate, has peripheral actions like atropine but, lacks central actions [can not cross BBB]
Ipratropium [a quaternary ammonium compound] is used by inhalation as a bronchodilator
21
Cyclopentolate and tropicamide are tertiary amines developed for ophthalmic use and administered as eye drops
Pirenzepine is a relatively selective M1 receptor antagonist
Oxybutynin, tolterodine and darifenacin (M3-selective) are new drugs that act on the bladder to inhibit micturition, and are used for treating urinary incontinence
They produce unwanted effects typical of muscarinic antagonists, such as dry mouth, constipation and blurred vision
22
ATROPINE
23
24
Used as a homicidal poison
Atropa: Atropos: Goddess in Greek Mythology
Atropos, Clothos & Lachesis….. 3 sisters Atropos cuts with shears the web of the life span
and woven by her sisters Clothos & Lachesis
25
Bella donna:
Italian meaning: Beautiful Lady
Once fashionable female practice of using the extract of the plant to dilate the pupils…. Process of making herself attractive
26
27
Atropine is an antagonist drug-
It blocks all the muscarinic receptors of Ach in the body & antagonizes the effects of Ach
Antagonism is reversible
So, the effects are opposite to Muscarinic effects of Ach
28
29
Inhibition of secretions:
Very low doses of atropine inhibits salivary, lacrimal, bronchial and sweat gland secretions producing dry mouth and skin
Gastric secretion is only slightly reduced
Mucociliary clearance in the bronchi is inhibited, so that residual secretions tend to accumulate in the lungs
Ipratropium lacks this effect
30
DOSE (mg) EFFECTS
0.5 Slight cardiac slowing; some dryness of mouth; inhibition of sweating
1 Definite dryness of mouth; thirst; acceleration of heart, sometimes preceded by slowing; mild dilation of pupils
2 Rapid heart rate; palpitation; marked dryness of mouth; dilated pupils; some blurring of near vision
5 Above symptoms marked; difficulty in speaking and swallowing; restlessness and fatigue; headache; dry, hot skin; difficulty in
micturition; reduced intestinal peristalsis
10 Above symptoms more marked; pulse rapid and weak; iris practically obliterated; vision very blurred; skin flushed, hot, dry, and scarlet;
ataxia, restlessness, and excitement; hallucinations and delirium; coma
31
Effects on heart:
Biphasic action
Atropine causes transient initial bradycardia due to stimulation of dorsal nucleus of vagus ( with very low doses; due to a central action)
Larger doses cause progressively increasing tachycardia by blocking cardiac mAChRs (up to 80-90 beats/min) in humans
32
This is because there is no effect on the sympathetic system, but only inhibition of the existing parasympathetic tone
This is most pronounced in young people (often absent in the elderly)
The response of the heart to exercise is unaffected
33
Arterial blood pressure is unaffected, because most resistance vessels have no cholinergic innervation
Large doses cause vasodilatation of the skin blood vessels specially in the blush area -‘atropine blush’
34
Effects on the eye:
It dilates the pupil (mydriasis)
Light reflex is lost
Relaxation of the ciliary muscle causes paralysis of accommodation (cycloplegia), so that near vision is impaired
Intraocular pressure may rise (unimportant in normal individuals but can be dangerous in patients suffering from narrow-angle glaucoma)
35
Pupil Normal Dilated
Effects on the gastrointestinal tract:
Gastrointestinal motility is inhibited by atropine
Atropine is used in pathological conditions in which there is increased gastrointestinal motility (M3 selective agents may be preferable)
Pirenzepine, owing to its selectivity for M1 receptors, inhibits gastric acid secretion
37
Bronchial, biliary and urinary tract smooth muscle are all relaxed by atropine
Reflex bronchoconstriction (during anaesthesia) is prevented, whereas bronchoconstriction caused by histamine and leukotrienes is unaffected
Biliary and urinary tract smooth muscle are only slightly affected
Precipitate urinary retention in elderly men with prostatic enlargement
38
Atropine stimulates CNS followed by depression Medulla and higher cerebral centers are stimulated With therapeutic doses there is mild vagal excitation Large doses produce marked central stimulation
leading to:• Restlessness
• Irritability
• Disorientation
• Hallucinations
• Delirium
39
Later; depression occurs leading to coma and death due to medullary paralysis
Atropine has anti tremor activity in Parkinson’s disease
It prevents motion sickness either by acting centrally or peripherally
It counteracts central excitatory actions of physostigmine and OPCs and
Reduces electrical activity of brain
40
Adjunct for anaesthesia (reduced secretions, bronchodilatation)
Anticholinesterase (OPC) poisoning Bradycardia As antispasmodic in Gastrointestinal hypermotility In ophthalmology used topically
• as a mydriatic (to examine the retina, optic disk)
• Treatment of acute iritis, iridocyclitis, keratitis etc.
• Used alternately with a miotic to break or prevent adhesions between iris and lens
41
Nocturnal enuresis
Hyperactive bladder
Motion sickness
Parkinson’s disease
Hyperhidrosis
Mushroom poisoning
Antidiarrheal
Pulmonary obstructive disease42
Ipratropium and Tiotropium are used in the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
They are less effective in most asthmatic patients These are often used with inhaled long-acting β2 agonists
• Ipratropium is administered four times daily via a metered-dose inhaler or nebulizer
• Tiotropium is administered once daily via a dry powder inhaler Ipratropium is used in nasal inhalers in rhinorrhea
associated with the common cold or with allergic or non-allergic perennial rhinitis
43
Once widely used for the management of peptic ulcer
Can reduce gastric motility and the secretion of gastric acid
But antisecretory doses produce pronounced side effects like- • such as xerostomia, loss of visual accommodation, photophobia,
and difficulty in urination
Patient compliance in the long-term is poor Pirenzepine, Telenzepine
44
Diarrhea associated with irritation of the lower bowel [mild dysenteries and diverticulitis]
Dicyclomine hydrochloride [weak muscarinic receptor antagonist] also has nonspecific direct spasmolytic effects on smooth muscle of the GI tract
It is occasionally used in the treatment of diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome
45
Effects on the eye are obtained by topical administration
They cause mydriasis and cycloplegia Mydriasis is necessary for thorough
examination of the retina and optic disc and in the therapy of iridocyclitis and keratitis
The mydriatics may be alternated with miotics for breaking or preventing the development of adhesions between the iris and the lens
46
Complete cycloplegia may be necessary in the treatment of iridocyclitis and choroiditis and for accurate measurement of refractive errors
Homatropine hydrobromide a semisynthetic derivative of atropine, Cyclopentolate hydrochloride and Tropicamide are used in ophthalmological practice
47
Overactive urinary bladder Lower intravesicular pressure Increase capacity, and Reduce the frequency of contractions by
antagonizing parasympathetic control of the bladder
They also may alter bladder sensation during filling
48
Enuresis in children, particularly when a progressive increase in bladder capacity is the objective
To reduce urinary frequency and increase bladder capacity in spastic paraplegia
49
Oxybutynin (DITROPAN)
Tolterodine (DETROL)
Trospium chloride (SANCTURA)
Darifenacin (ENABLEX)
Solifenacin (VESICARE) and
Fesoterodine (TOVIAZ);
50
Limited clinical utility Used only in coronary care units for short-term
interventions or in surgical settings Initial treatment of patients with acute
myocardial infarction in whom excessive vagal tone causes sinus bradycardia or AV nodal block
51
Sinus bradycardia is the most common arrhythmia seen during acute myocardial infarction
Atropine may prevent further clinical deterioration in cases of high vagal tone or AV block by restoring heart rate to a level sufficient to maintain adequate hemodynamic status and to eliminate AV nodal block
52
Dry mouth
Blurred vision
Tachycardia
Constipation
Urinary hesitancy and retention
Atropine poisoning
53
Occur through accidental or deliberate ingestion of berries or seeds of belladonna or from over treatment with high doses
Characterized by: • Dryness of mouth,
dysarthria, dysphagia• Blurred vision and
photophobia• Hot, dry and flushed skin
• Hyperpyrexia
• Tachycardia (weak and rapid pulse)
• Palpitation
• Urinary difficulty
• Restlessness, excitement, hallucinations, delirium followed by
• Depression and death from respiratory failure
• Convulsions may occur
54
