5 The nicotinic acetylcholine receptor is also targeted by potent toxin such as
coniine, tubocurarine (curare) or the cyanobacterial made anatoxin A.
5 The GABA A/C receptor is the target of many active compounds found in herbs
such as thuja, sage, oregano, valerian or ginger but also toxins such as cicutoxin or anisatin.
5 Only two compounds affecting the glycine receptor are well described. Strychnine has long been used as a pesticide as well as gruesome poison, while tutin
is rather known due to its presence in toxic honey.
5 Human TRPV1 (heat) and TRPM8 (cold) receptors are activated by many compounds found in spices or herbs. They can be used as feeding deterrents, i.e.
capsaicin, or to attract insects.
