MT9, a natural peptide from black mamba venom antagonizes the muscarinic type 2 receptor and reverses the M2R-agonist-induced relaxation in rat and human arteries

All five muscarinic receptors have important physiological roles. The endothelial M2 and M3 subtypes regulate arterial tone through direct coupling to Gq or Gi/o proteins. Yet, we lack selective pharmacological drugs to assess the respective contribution of muscarinic receptors to a given function....
