Circulating extracellular choline acetyltransferase regulates inflammation. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Intern Med, 2023
AbstractBackgroundCholine acetyltransferase (ChAT) is required for the biosynthesis of acetylcholine, the molecular mediator that inhibits cytokine production in the cholinergic anti‐inflammatory pathway of the vagus nerve inflammatory reflex. Abundant work has established the biology of cytoplasmic ChAT in neurons, but much less is known about the ...

Effects of Radix Polygalae on Cognitive Decline and Depression in Estradiol Depletion Mouse Model of Menopause

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology, 2021
Postmenopausal syndrome refers to symptoms caused by the gradual decrease in female hormones after mid-40 years. As a target organ of estrogen, decrease in estrogen causes various changes in brain function such as a decrease in choline acetyltransferase ...

CXCL12 Regulates the Cholinergic Locus and CHT1 Through Akt Signaling Pathway

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2016
Background: CXCL12 is pivotal for cholinergic neurons, and it induces the expressions of several genes that are essential for synthesis and storage of acetylcholine(ACh), specifically choline acetyltransferase, vesicular ACh transporter (VAChT), and ...

The influence of non-neuronal cells on catecholamine and acetylcholine synthesis and accumulation in cultures of dissociated sympathetic neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
The effects of several non-neuronal cell types on neurotransmitter synthesis in cultures of dissociated sympathetic neurons from the new-born rat were studied.

Changes in neuromuscular structure and functions of human colon during ageing are region-dependent [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Objective: To determine if human colonic neuromuscular functions decline with increasing age.Design: Looking for non-specific changes in neuromuscular function, a standard burst of electrical field stimulation (EFS) was used to evoke neuronally mediated (

Effects of Goldblatt hypertension on rats’ hippocampal cholinergic system

open access: yesTranslational Neuroscience, 2022
The classical renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has an important role in the cardiovascular system and water homeostasis in the body. Recently, the existence of RAS with all of its components has been shown in the mammalian brain.

Dysregulated homeostasis of acetylcholine levels in immune cells of RR-multiple sclerosis patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is characterized by pro-inflammatory cytokine production. Acetylcholine (ACh) contributes to the modulation of central and peripheral inflammation.

Adolescent, but Not Adult, Binge Ethanol Exposure Leads to Persistent Global Reductions of Choline Acetyltransferase Expressing Neurons in Brain

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
During the adolescent transition from childhood to adulthood, notable maturational changes occur in brain neurotransmitter systems. The cholinergic system is composed of several distinct nuclei that exert neuromodulatory control over cognition, arousal ...
