Targeting Alpha7 Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors in Lung Cancer: Insights, Challenges, and Therapeutic Strategies

ACS Pharmacology & Translational Science, 2023
Alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7 nAChR) is an ion-gated calcium channel that plays a significant role in various aspects of cancer pathogenesis, particularly in lung cancer. Preclinical studies have elucidated the molecular mechanism underlying α7 nAChR-associated lung cancer proliferation, chemotherapy resistance, and metastasis ...

Nicotine increases GABAergic input on rat dorsal raphe serotonergic neurons through alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor

Journal of Neurophysiology, 2014
The dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) contains large populations of serotonergic (5-HT) neurons. This nucleus receives GABAergic inhibitory afferents from many brain areas and from DRN interneurons. Both GABAergic and 5-HT DRN neurons express functional nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). Previous studies have demonstrated that nicotine increases 5-HT

α7 Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors targeted by cholinergic developmental neurotoxicants: nicotine and chlorpyrifos

Brain Research Bulletin, 2004
Alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) play a role in axonogenesis, synaptogenesis and synaptic plasticity, and are therefore potential targets for developmental neurotoxicants. We administered nicotine to neonatal rats during discrete periods spanning the onset and peak of axonogenesis/synaptogenesis, focusing on three brain regions with ...

Targeting alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the treatment of schizophrenia.

Current pharmaceutical design, 2010
The most abundant homomeric nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in the mammalian brain are the pentameric alpha7 nAChRs which consist of five alpha7 subunits, and each subunit provides an orthosteric low affinity binding site for its endogenous ligand, acetylcholine.

The role of alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in B lymphocyte activation.

Ukrains'kyi biokhimichnyi zhurnal (1999 ), 2010
The involvement of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) a7 subtype in B lymphocyte activation has been investigated. B lymphocytes were magnetically separated from the spleens of C57Bl/6J mice. The purified lymphocytes were treated with fluorescently labeled IgM-, CD40-, CD16/32 or CD23-specific antibodies and unlabeled alpha7-specific antibody and
