Acetylcholine regulation of GnRH neuronal activity: A circuit in the medial septum
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023 In vertebrates, gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)-secreting neurons control fertility by regulating gonadotrophs in the anterior pituitary. While it is known that acetylcholine (ACh) influences GnRH secretion, whether the effect is direct or indirect,

Cells, 2023 Major features of aging might be progressive decreases in cognitive function and physical activity, in addition to withered appearance. Previously, we reported that the intracerebroventricular injection of human neural stem cells (NSCs named F3) encoded ...

WormBook, 2007 Acetylcholine is the major excitatory neurotransmitter at nematode neuromuscular junctions, and more than a third of the cells in the C. elegans nervous system release acetylcholine. Through a combination of forward genetics, drug-resistance selections, and genomic analysis, mutants have been identified for all of the steps specifically required for ...

Lipid Membrane State Change by Catalytic Protonation and the Implications for Synaptic Transmission
Membranes, 2021 In cholinergic synapses, the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh) is rapidly hydrolyzed by esterases to choline and acetic acid (AH). It is believed that this reaction serves the purpose of deactivating ACh once it has exerted its effect on a receptor ...

Acetylcholine and attention [PDF]
Behavioural Brain Research, 2011 Historically, ACh has been implicated in learning and short-term memory functions. However, more recent studies have provided support for a role of cortical ACh in attentional effort, orienting and the detection of behavioral significant stimuli. The current review article summarizes studies in animals and humans which have investigated the role of ACh

Effects of different sugammadex doses on the train of four ratio recovery progression during rocuronium induced neuromuscular blockade in the rat phrenic nerve hemidiaphragm [PDF]
Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2020 Background In this study, we used an ex-vivo model to investigate the recovery pattern of both the train-of-four (TOF) ratio and first twitch tension of TOF (T1), and determined their relationship during recovery from rocuronium-induced neuromuscular ...
