A Cholinergic Synaptically Triggered Event Participates in the Generation of Persistent Activity Necessary for Eye Fixation [PDF]
An exciting topic regarding integrative properties of the nervous system is how transient motor commands or brief sensory stimuli are able to evoke persistent neuronal changes, mainly as a sustained, tonic action potential firing.

Pinnatoxins’ Deleterious Effects on Cholinergic Networks: From Experimental Models to Human Health
Pinnatoxins (PnTXs) are emerging neurotoxins that were discovered about 30 years ago. They are solely produced by the marine dinoflagellate Vulcanodinium rugosum, and may be transferred into the food chain, as they have been found in various marine ...

Abstract Cyclizine is a long‐established, short‐acting drug, registered for preventing motion sickness, post‐operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and ‘vomiting of known cause’. The latter is not defined but may include pregnancy and patients receiving palliative care, historically accepted without large, controlled trials.

Physiological functions of the cholinergic system in immune cells
T and B cells, macrophages and dendritic cells (DCs) all express most of the components necessary for a functional cholinergic system. This includes choline acetyltransferase (ChAT), muscarinic and nicotinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptors (mAChRs and ...

Neurovascular coupling in bone regeneration: Mechanisms, advanced biomaterials and challenges
This figure illustrates various material strategies for neurovascularized bone regeneration, including electroactive scaffolds, ion‐loaded materials, drug delivery systems, surface modifications, cells/cell products, growth factors, and peptides. These approaches aim to synergistically promote the regeneration of neural, vascular, and bone tissues ...

Avoiding anticholinergic burden in neuropsychiatric treatments comorbid with alcohol use disorder [PDF]
Alcohol use disorder (AUD) frequently co-occurs with neuropsychiatric conditions such as insomnia, anxiety, depression, and psychosis. The management of these comorbidities requires careful pharmacological consideration, particularly the avoidance of ...

Anterior cingulate cortex neuron subtypes differentially regulate seizures
Abstract Objective This study aimed to investigate the regulatory roles of distinct neuronal subtypes within the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) in acute seizures and to identify cell type‐specific mechanisms underlying seizure modulation in this region. Methods Acute seizure models were established in mice via pentylenetetrazol injection.

Abstract Objective Resective surgery achieves seizure freedom in approximately 60%–80% of patients with drug‐resistant temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), yet the extent to which seizure cessation permits recovery of disrupted functional brain networks remains unclear.

Cholinergic cells in the nucleus basalis of mice express the N-methyl-D-aspartate-receptor subunit NR2C and its replacement by the NR2B subunit enhances frontal and amygdaloid acetylcholine levels [PDF]
It is known that glutamatergic and cholinergic systems interact functionally at the level of the cholinergic basal forebrain. The N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDA-R) is a multiprotein complex composed of NR1, NR2 and/or NR3 subunits.
