Muscarinic Receptors

The name muscarine derives from that of Amanita muscaria, from which it was first isolated, by German chemists Oswald Schmiedeberg and Richard Koppe at the University of Tartu, who reported their findings in 1869.

The mushroom's specific name in turn comes from the Latin musca for fly because the mushroom was often used to attract and catch flies, hence its common name, "fly agaric".

Muscarine was the first parasympathomimetic substance ever studied and causes profound activation of the peripheralparasympathetic nervous system
