The MX-Helix of Muscle nAChR Subunits Regulates Receptor Assembly and Surface Trafficking. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) are pentameric channels that mediate fast transmission at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) and defects in receptor expression underlie neuromuscular disorders such as myasthenia gravis and congenital myasthenic ...

Microphysiological Uremia Model Reveals Biophysical Potentiators of Vascular Dysfunction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A microfluidic platform of engineered blood vessels is developed to study the role of mechanical forces in immune cell adhesion and extravasation in uremic microenvironments. Elevated pressure increases monocyte activity, with ICAM‐1 as a key driver. Matrix density influences monocyte phenotypes, but the uremic environment consistently promoted a pro ...

Activation of a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 1984
We studied activation of the nicotinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptor on cells of a mouse clonal muscle cell line (BC3H1). We analyzed single-channel currents through outside-out patches elicited with various concentrations of acetylcholine (ACh), carbamylcholine (Carb) and suberyldicholine (Sub).

Nanoparticle‐Mediated CXCL12–CXCR4 Inhibition Reprograms Macrophages and Suppresses Gastric Carcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Molecular mechanism study of self‐assembled M2pep‐Cs NPs/Plerixafor nanoparticles in targeting MΦ reprogramming by regulating the CXCL12–CXCR4 signaling pathway to enhance immune recognition and clearance of GC (Created by BioRender). Abstract Gastric carcinoma (GC) remains a major global health challenge, requiring novel therapeutic approaches.

Effects of novel muscarinic M3 receptor ligand C1213 in pulmonary arterial hypertension models. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a complex disease comprising a pathologic remodeling and thickening of the pulmonary vessels causing an after load on the right heart ventricle that can result in ventricular failure. Triggered by oxidative stress, episodes

Identification and localization of muscarinic acetylcholine receptor proteins in brain with subtype-specific antibodies

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 1991
mRNAs encoding five genetically distinct muscarinic ACh receptors are present in the CNS. Because of their pharmacological similarities, it has not been possible to detect the individual encoded proteins; thus, their physiological functions are not well ...

Parvalbumin Interneuron‐Dependent Hippocampal Neurogenesis Evoked by Prolonged Rhythmic Light Flicker

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that prolonged rhythmic 40 Hz light flicker enhances spatial learning by stimulating PV interneuron‐dependent neurogenesis. The light flicker selectively activates PV interneurons, which enhances GABAergic support for the integration of immature neurons in the adult dentate gyrus.

SPLICEIT Fluorescent Sensor for Integrating Dopamine Release with Cellular Resolution

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
“Single‐chain protein‐based ligand indication through a chimerically‐engineered integrator tool” (SPLICEIT) is a G‐protein coupled receptor‐based sensor design that leaves a permanent fluorescent mark. We show dopamine detection in primary cultured neurons with a fourfold signal increase normalized to an mCherry (mCh) marker.
