Acetylcholine-induced relaxation ability of isolated thoracic aorta segments after epinephrine precontraction.

open access: yes, 2023
LPS treatment (squares) caused a reduced endothelium-dependent acetylcholine-induced relaxation compared to the Control (circles). THC treatment (triangles) prevented the decrement in the endothelium-mediated relaxation. Data are presented as mean ± SEM,

Cholinergic Projections From the Pedunculopontine Tegmental Nucleus Contact Excitatory and Inhibitory Neurons in the Inferior Colliculus

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2020
The inferior colliculus processes nearly all ascending auditory information. Most collicular cells respond to sound, and for a majority of these cells, the responses can be modulated by acetylcholine (ACh). The cholinergic effects are varied and, for the

Immunocytochemical Localization of Enzymes Involved in Dopamine, Serotonin, and Acetylcholine Synthesis in the Optic Neuropils and Neuroendocrine System of Eyestalks of Paralithodes camtschaticus

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2022
Identifying the neurotransmitters secreted by specific neurons in crustacean eyestalks is crucial to understanding their physiological roles. Here, we combined immunocytochemistry with confocal microscopy and identified the neurotransmitters dopamine (DA)

Antibodies to acetylcholine receptor in parous women with myasthenia: evidence for immunization by fetal antigen [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The weakness in myasthenia gravis (MG) is mediated by autoantibodies against adult muscle acetylcholine receptors (AChR) at the neuromuscular junction; most of these antibodies also bind to fetal AChR, which is present in the thymus.

The agrin gene codes for a family of basal lamina proteins that differ in function and distribution [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
We isolated two cDNAs that encode isoforms of agrin, the basal lamina protein that mediates the motor neuron-induced aggregation of acetylcholine receptors on muscle fibers at the neuromuscular junction.

An invertebrate-specific miRNA targeted the ancient cholinergic neuroendocrine system of oyster [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2016
Acetylcholine (ACh) is the main neurotransmitter in the cholinergic neuroendocrine system and plays an indispensable role in modulating diverse immune responses.

Psychological stress induces an increase in cholinergic enteric neuromuscular pathways mediated by glucocorticoid receptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
IntroductionRepeated acute stress (RASt) is known to be associated with gastrointestinal dysfunctions. However, the mechanisms underlying these effects have not yet been fully understood.

Eosinophil-mediated cholinergic nerve remodeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Eosinophils are observed to localize to cholinergic nerves in a variety of inflammatory conditions such as asthma, rhinitis, eosinophilic gastroenteritis, and inflammatory bowel disease, where they are also responsible for the induction of cell ...

Revisiting the Endocytosis of the M2 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor

open access: yesMembranes, 2015
The agonist-induced endocytosis of the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M2 is different from that of the other members of the muscarinic receptor family.
