Application

Atropine sulfate salt monohydrate has been used for anaesthetizing mice for intranasal administration of ropinirole or 7-OH-DPAT.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Atropine sulfate salt monohydrate is a competitive nonselective antagonist of central and peripheral muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. Atropine is a cholinergic receptor antagonist isolated from Atropa belladona L., Datura stramonium L. and other plants of the solanaceae family. It blocks the ion currents mediated by neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. Further, it blocks the acetylcholine (ACh)-induced relaxations in human pulmonary veins.
Competitive nonselective antagonist at central and peripheral muscarinic acetylcholine receptors.
