Low levels and lack of function of muscarinic binding sites in human skin fibroblasts from five affectively ill patients and two control subjects
SC Lin and E Richelson
Skin fibroblasts of five subjects with affective illness and two control
subjects were examined for muscarinic receptors. Contrary to recent
findings, there were low levels of muscarinic binding sites and no evidence
that these sites mediate a biological response.
