Scientific Reports, 2022 Successful cholinergic-noradrenergic pharmacotherapy for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is thought to be due to effects at the hypoglossal motor nucleus (HMN). Clinical efficacy varies with muscarinic-receptor (MR) subtype affinities. We hypothesized that

Social Isolation: How Can the Effects on the Cholinergic System Be Isolated?
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2021 Social species form organizations that support individuals because the consequent social behaviors help these organisms survive. The isolation of these individuals may be a stressor. We reviewed the potential mechanisms of the effects of social isolation

Cholinergic Mechanisms in Spinal Locomotion - Potential Target for Rehabilitation Approaches
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2014 Previous experiments implicate cholinergic brainstem and spinal systems in the control of locomotion. Our results demonstrate that the endogenous cholinergic propriospinal system, acting via M2 and M3 muscarinic receptors, is capable of consistently ...

Rapid Desensitization with Autologous Sweat in Cholinergic Urticaria
Allergology International, 2011 Background: The majority of patients with cholinergic urticaria presents with strong hypersensitivity to autologous sweat. Patients with severe cholinergic urticaria are frequently resistant to H1 antagonists which are used in conventional therapies for ...

Unilateral mydriasis secondary to ipratropium bromide in a critically ill patient
Journal of Emergencies, Trauma and Shock, 2012 Unilateral dilated pupil in a critical patient under sedation is an important clinical sign that requires prompt evaluation. An exhaustive assessment must be performed, including neurological examination and imaging tests, and pharmacological causes must

A2A adenosine receptor antagonism enhances synaptic and motor effects of cocaine via CB1 cannabinoid receptor activation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 BACKGROUND: Cocaine increases the level of endogenous dopamine (DA) in the striatum by blocking the DA transporter. Endogenous DA modulates glutamatergic inputs to striatal neurons and this modulation influences motor activity.

Evaluation of Different Combined Regimens in the Treatment of Cholinergic Urticaria
World Allergy Organization Journal, 2012 Background Cholinergic urticaria is uncommon and accounts for 10% of all young adults. To date, there is no effective therapy for cholinergic urticaria.Objective To determine the therapeutic efficacy of different drug combinations in the treatment of ...
