Increased response to this chemical is initiated when galantamine binds to its 5-HT3 receptor, and its overproduction can result in a condition described with the mnemonic "SLUDGE syndrome." Receptors for this chemical are classified in whether they employ a second messenger system or gated ion channels and are respectively muscarinic and nicotinic. Receptors of this neurotransmitter are attacked in myasthenia gravis. Latrotoxin causes its supply to be rapidly released whereas curare poison inhibits the uptake of this small molecule. For 10 points, name this neurotransmitter that activates muscle contractions, an ester of acetic acid and choline.
