Popis: Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) utilize the direct signaling pathway to ADP-ribosyl cyclase via G proteins within cell membranes to produce cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) from s-NAD+. This signal cascade is analogous to the previously established transduction pathways from mAChRs to adenylyl cyclase and phospholipase Cs. Together with cytosolic Ca2+, cADPR functions to release Ca2+ through ryanodine receptors. This cADPR-dependent and mAChR-controlled increase in cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations may induce various cellular responses.
