| " We interpret our data as indicating that: there is much greater receptor reserve in the coupling of muscarinic receptors to adenylate cyclase than to PI hydrolysis; this, rather than differences in receptor affinity underlies the disparate dose-response relationships for the two responses; and differences in the effects of weak agonist on the two responses may also reflect differences in receptor reserve." | ( Differences in muscarinic receptor reserve for inhibition of adenylate cyclase and stimulation of phosphoinositide hydrolysis in chick heart cells.
