Amitriptyline supersensitizes a central cholinergic mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
The withdrawal of tricyclic antidepressants produces symptoms characteristic of cholinergic overdrive states. The authors previously proposed that these states are the consequence of the pharmacological induction of cholinergic system supersensitivity by

Almond (Amygdalus communis L.) Peptides Improve Scopolamine‐Induced Learning and Memory Impairment in Mice

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Figure Schematic showing the improvement of almond peptides on learning and memory impairment induced by scopolamine in mice. Almond peptides (APs) could improve the learning and memory in scopolamine‐induced mice by maintaining cholinergic system homeostasis and regulating Nrf2/Keap1 signaling pathway, via activating the Nrf2 transcription factor and ...

Low‐Concentration Dopamine Potentiates Gastric Motility Through Activation of Dopamine D5 Receptor on Enteric Cholinergic Neurons

open access: yesGut Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dopamine (DA) exerts complex concentration‐dependent effects on gastrointestinal motility. Although its inhibitory action through D2‐like receptors is well‐established, the mechanisms underlying its excitatory effects remain elusive.
