Eyeing up the Future of the Pupillary Light Reflex in Neurodiagnostics
Diagnostics, 2018 The pupillary light reflex (PLR) describes the constriction and subsequent dilation of the pupil in response to light as a result of the antagonistic actions of the iris sphincter and dilator muscles.

Nerve Growth Factor: A Dual Activator of Noradrenergic and Cholinergic Systems of the Rat Ovary
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021 The functioning of the ovary is influenced by the autonomic system (sympathetic and cholinergic intraovarian system) which contributes to the regulation of steroid secretion, follicular development, and ovulation.

Ciliomotor circuitry underlying whole-body coordination of ciliary activity in the Platynereis larva
eLife, 2017 Ciliated surfaces harbouring synchronously beating cilia can generate fluid flow or drive locomotion. In ciliary swimmers, ciliary beating, arrests, and changes in beat frequency are often coordinated across extended or discontinuous surfaces.

A Microbioassay for Acetylcholine.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1961 SummaryA microbioassay for acetylcholine is described in which a solution containing acetylcholine is microperfused onto the endplate area of a chronically denervated skeletal muscle fiber. The endpoint, a brief tetanus, can be produced by application of as little as 0.15 μl of a solution which contains acetylcholine chloride at a concentration of 2.5 ×

C. elegans neurons have functional dendritic spines
eLife, 2019 Dendritic spines are specialized postsynaptic structures that transduce presynaptic signals, are regulated by neural activity and correlated with learning and memory. Most studies of spine function have focused on the mammalian nervous system.

Acetylcholine From Tuft Cells: The Updated Insights Beyond Its Immune and Chemosensory Functions
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 Tuft cells, rare solitary chemosensory cells, are distributed in mucosal epithelium throughout mammalian organs. Their nomenclatures are various in different organs and may be confused with other similar cells.
