Cholinergic System and Its Therapeutic Importance in Inflammation and Autoimmunity
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 Neurological and immunological signals constitute an extensive regulatory network in our body that maintains physiology and homeostasis. The cholinergic system plays a significant role in neuroimmune communication, transmitting information regarding the ...

Effect of gallamine on cholinergic receptors [PDF]
Canadian Anaesthetists’ Society Journal, 1970 Gallamine triethiodide causes tachycardia thought to be due to a specific vagolytic action. Recently, Brown and Crout have shown that gallamine may cause increased inotropic and chronotropic activity due to the release of catecholamines from cardiac sympathetic nerves.

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView., 2022 Abstract Epilepsy is a heterogeneous disorder characterized by spontaneous seizures and behavioral comorbidities. The underlying mechanisms of seizures and epilepsy across various syndromes lead to diverse clinical presentation and features. Similarly, animal models of epilepsy arise from numerous dissimilar inciting events.

Dopamine D_2-receptor activation elicits akinesia, rigidity, catalepsy, and tremor in mice expressing hypersensitive 4 nicotinic receptors via a cholinergic-dependent mechanism [PDF]
, 2010 Recent studies suggest that high-affinity neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) containing α4 and β2 subunits (α4β2*) functionally interact with G-protein-coupled dopamine (DA) D_2 receptors in basal ganglia.

Acetylcholine regulation of GnRH neuronal activity: A circuit in the medial septum
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023 In vertebrates, gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)-secreting neurons control fertility by regulating gonadotrophs in the anterior pituitary. While it is known that acetylcholine (ACh) influences GnRH secretion, whether the effect is direct or indirect,

A spatial covariance (123)I-5IA-85380 SPECT study of α4β2 nicotinic receptors in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
, 2016 Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by widespread degeneration of cholinergic neurons, particularly in the basal forebrain. However, the pattern of these deficits and relationship with known brain networks is unknown.

Simultaneous release of glutamate and acetylcholine from single magnocellular "cholinergic" basal forebrain neurons [PDF]
, 2006 Basal forebrain (BF) neurons provide the principal cholinergic drive to the hippocampus and cortex. Their degeneration is associated with the cognitive defects of Alzheimer's disease. Immunohistochemical studies suggest that some of these neurons contain
