Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2012 Recent studies show a key role of brain inflammation in epilepsy. However, the mechanisms controlling brain immune response are only partly understood. In the periphery, acetylcholine (ACh) release by the vagus nerve restrains inflammation by inhibiting ...

, 1988 Muscle tension recordings were made from earthworm body wall muscle and the action of acetylcholine, cholinomimtics and cholinolytics examined. The effect of cholinergic agents on muscle twitches induced following field stimulation was also investigated.

Reversing Cholinergic Bronchoconstriction by Common Inotropic Agents
, 2019 The ability of inotropic agents to alter airway reactivity and lung tissue mechanics has not been compared in a well-controlled experimental model. Therefore, we compared the potential to alter lung tissue viscoelasticity and bronchodilator effects of ...

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.Abstract Background Non‐motor symptoms, especially autonomic dysfunction, are major contributors to disability and decreased quality of life in Parkinson's disease (PD). Despite being common and having a wide range of clinical facets, exocrine gland dysfunction is still not well recognized and managed.

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.Abstract Background Hyperkinetic movement disorders, including dystonia, tremor, and myoclonus, are disabling conditions often managed with botulinum toxin type A (BoNT‐A). Real‐world evidence on treatment patterns remains limited. Objective This nationwide, population‐based study aimed to evaluate trends in BoNT‐A use in France between 2015 and 2023 ...

The cognitive psychopharmacology of Alzheimer's disease: Focus on cholinergic systems
, 1998 The primary pathology in Alzheimer's disease (DAT) occurs in the basal forebrain cholinergic system (BFCS), which provides the major cholinergic innervation to the neocortex, hippocampus and amygdala.

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.D2 receptor ablation in indirect‐pathway striatal neurons reduces or abolishes dyskinetic and dystonic behaviors induced by L‐DOPA or D2 receptor agonists, respectively. Contralateral turning is reduced, while forward locomotion is increased. These effects are associated with modulation of neuronal activity in dorsal striatum and external globus ...

Cholinergic system and neuroinflammation: implication in multiple sclerosis
, 2017 Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory and neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system (CNS) characterized by leucocytes infiltration, demyelination, axonal degeneration and neuronal death.

Adrenergic and cholinergic interaction in central ventilatory control
, 1990 The ventrolateral medulla, which functions as integrator of cardiorespiratory control, contains cholinergic and adrenergic neurons. Exogenously administered cholinergic and adrenergic agents affect both ventilation and circulation.
