Acetylcholine and cholinergic receptors [PDF]
Brain and Neuroscience Advances, 2019 This review provides a distillate of the advances in knowledge about the neurotransmitter functions of acetylcholine over the 50-year period between 1967 and 2017, together with incremental information about the cognate nicotinic and muscarinic ...

Nicotinic Cholinergic Receptors in VTA Glutamate Neurons Modulate Excitatory Transmission [PDF]
Cell Reports, 2018 Summary: Ventral tegmental area (VTA) glutamate neurons are important components of reward circuitry, but whether they are subject to cholinergic modulation is unknown.

Adrenergic and cholinergic receptors of cerebral microvessels. [PDF]
Journal of Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism, 1981 The presence of α- and β-adrenergic and muscarinic cholinergic receptors in cerebral microvessels of the rat and pig was assessed by ligand binding techniques. The results demonstrate the presence of specific binding to α 2 - and β-adrenergic receptors but no appreciable specific binding to α

Cholinergic receptors in aging and Alzheimer's disease
Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry, 1986 Although Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a disorder involving multiple neurotransmitter systems, the basal forebrain cholinergic system (Ch system) is severely and consistently affected in this condition. In both animals and man, the nature of age-associated alterations in the Ch system is unclear. In addition, available studies of cholinergic receptors in

Beta-adrenergic and M-cholinergic receptor interactions in the pathogenesis of bronchial obstructive pulmonary diseases [PDF]
Клиническая практика, 2020 The crosstalk between the beta-2-adrenoceptor and M- cholinoreceptor systems in the airways plays one of the main roles in the pathogenesis of bronchoobstructive diseases.

Cholinergic Receptors in Cognitive Disorders [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences / Journal Canadien des Sciences Neurologiques, 1986 Abstract:Cholinergic receptors (muscarinic subtypes M1 and M2, and putative nicotinic binding) have been examined in the hippocampus obtained at autopsy from a variety of patients with cognitive disorders (Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's diseases, Down's Syndrome and alcoholic dementia) and compared with neurologically normal controls and ...
