Mini Review: the non-neuronal cardiac cholinergic system in type-2 diabetes mellitus

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
Diabetic heart disease remains the leading cause of death in individuals with type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Both insulin resistance and metabolic derangement, hallmark features of T2DM, develop early and progressively impair cardiovascular function ...

The Regulatory Effects of Acetyl-CoA Distribution in the Healthy and Diseased Brain

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
Brain neurons, to support their neurotransmitter functions, require a several times higher supply of glucose than non-excitable cells. Pyruvate, the end product of glycolysis, through pyruvate dehydrogenase complex reaction, is a principal source of ...

Endothelial Dysfunction and Passive Changes in the Aorta and Coronary Arteries of Diabetic db/db Mice

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
Endothelial cell dysfunction and vessel stiffening are associated with a worsened prognosis in diabetic patients with cardiovascular diseases. The present study hypothesized that sex impacts endothelial dysfunction and structural changes in arteries from

Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation during Spasm Provocation Test with Acetylcholine: Clinical Characteristics of Patients and Effect on Coronary Microvascular Function Measurements

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a complication that occurs following a spasm provocation test (SPT) with acetylcholine (ACh). However, the characteristics of patients with AF remain unclear.

Acetylcholine and Acetylcholine Receptors in Taste Receptor Cells [PDF]

Chemical Senses, 2005
Neuroactive substances play important roles as transmitters and neuromodulators. Although many of these substances and/or their receptors are known to be present in taste receptor cells and nerve fibers innervating taste buds, physiological functions of these substances are not well understood (Nagai et al., 1996).

The effects of novel 7-MEOTA-donepezil like hybrids and N-alkylated tacrine analogues in the treatment of quinuclidinyl benzilate-induced behavioural deficits in rats performing the multiple T-maze test

Biomedical Papers, 2015
Aims: The number of approved drugs for the clinical treatment of Alzheimer disease remains limited. For this reason, there is extensive search for novel therapies.

Baseline Regional Cholinergic Denervation Predicts Cognitive Trajectories in Moderate Parkinson Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Cognitive decline is a disabling and variable feature of Parkinson disease (PD). While cholinergic system degeneration is linked to cognitive impairments in PD, most prior research reported cross‐sectional associations. We aimed to fill this gap by investigating whether baseline regional cerebral vesicular acetylcholine transporter ...
