Translations:Acetylcholin-Rezeptor/2/en

Two basic types of A. are distinguished: the nicotinic N-receptor, predominantly postsynaptic on the striated skeletal muscle, on ganglionary synapses, on the adrenal medulla, but also in the CNS. When bound with acetylcholine, its ion channel is opened to sodium ions and the membrane is depolarized by their influx.
