Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (AChMR1‐5) are fundamental for cellular responses upon release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh) from parasympathetic nerve fibers. ACh is the prototypical agonist stimulating endothelium‐dependent dilation, but most blood vessels lack parasympathetic innervation, raising the question as to the physiologic function of endothelial AChMR in vivo. Global deletion of AChM3R revealed a role in ACh‐induced vasodilation in vitro and food uptake, but overall cardiovascular homeostasis has not been examined thoroughly.
