Acetylcholine Receptors and Concanavalin A-Binding Sites on Cultured Xenopus Muscle Cells: Electrophoresis, Diffusion, and Aggregation [PDF]
Using digitally analyzed fluorescence videomicroscopy, we have examined the behavior of acetylcholine receptors and concanavalin A binding sites in response to externally applied electric fields.

The decision to eat is strongly influenced by non‐homeostatic factors such as food palatability. Indeed, the rewarding and motivational value of food can override homeostatic signals, leading to increased consumption and hence, obesity.

Engineering the Future of Restorative Clinical Peripheral Nerve Surgery
What if damaged nerves could regenerate more effectively? This review unveils cutting‐edge strategies to restore nerve function, from biomaterial scaffolds and bioactive molecules to living engineered tissues. By accelerating axonal regrowth, preserving Schwann cells, and enhancing connectivity, these approaches are reshaping nerve repair—offering new ...

Cholinergic receptor alterations in the cerebral cortex of spinal cord injured rat
Many areas of the cerebral cortex process sensory information or coordinate motor output necessary for control of movement. Disturbances in cortical cholinergic system can affect locomotor coordination.

Filamented Light (FLight) Bioprinting of Mini‐Muscles with Self‐Renewal Potential
This work presents the FLight biofabrication for engineering in vitro muscle constructs by photocrosslinking pristine collagen and fibrinogen using ruthenium. The resulting mini‐muscles retain in vivo‐like tissue organization and a Pax7⁺ cell pool.

Rates and equilibria at the acetylcholine receptor of electrophorus electroplaques. A study of neurally evoked postsynaptic currents and of voltage-jump relaxations [PDF]
Kinetic measurements are employed to reconstruct the steady-state activation of acetylcholine [Ach] receptor channels in electrophorus electroplaques. Neurally evoked postsynaptic currents (PSCs) decay exponentially; at 15°C the rate constant, α, equals ...

Conformation of acetylcholine bound to the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. [PDF]
We report here the biologically active conformation of acetylcholine when bound to the high-affinity state of the receptor from Torpedo californica. The acetylcholine conformation was determined in the free and bound states by proton NMR two-dimensional nuclear Overhauser effects. In agreement with x-ray crystallographic data, acetylcholine in solution

This review systematically examines the nanomechanical mechanisms of mussel‐inspired molecular interactions, primarily investigated by direct force measurement techniques such as surface forces apparatus and atomic force microscopy. The macroscopic adhesive and self‐healing performances of mussel‐inspired functional materials, including coacervates ...
