E. succinylcholine
Structurally, succinylcholine is two acetylcholine molecules linked together. Therefore, it can activate both muscarinic and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (both at the NMJ and autonomic ganglionic junctions). Activation of muscarinic receptor can produce bradycardia. Histamine release is associated with succinylcholine and some non-depolarizing skeletal muscle relaxants.
