      Drug Name Mecamylamine Tadalafil
      Mechanism Hypotensive effects
Neuronal acetylcholine receptor  Antagonist
Hypotensive effects
Prostacyclin receptor  Agonist
      Key Mechanism Factor 1
Factor Name Neuronal acetylcholine receptor Structure Sequence
Protein Family Ligand-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.9) family
Protein Function
After binding acetylcholine, the AChR responds by an extensive change in conformation that affects all subunits and leads to opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane.
