The neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh) is synthesised, stored and released by cholinergic neurons, and exerts its effects on the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS) through two distinct types of receptor: the muscarinic and nicotinic ACh receptors (mAChRs and nAChRs).
