Effect of gallamine on cholinergic receptors [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian 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.

Development of fetal nicotine and muscarinic receptors in utero

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2007
The role of acetylcholine in the central and peripheral nervous systems is well established in adults. Cholinergic modulation of vascular functions and body fluid balance has been extensively studied.

Non-neuronal regulation and repertoire of cholinergic receptors in organs

open access: yesBiomolecular Concepts, 2010
Many studies on the cholinergic pathway have indicated that cholinergic receptors, which are widely expressed in various cells, play an important role in all body organs.

The involvement of cholinergic neurons in the spreading of tau pathology

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2013
Long time ago, it was described the selective loss of cholinergic neurons during the development of Alzheimer disease. Recently, it has been suggested that tau protein may play a role in that loss of cholinergic neurons through a mechanism involving the ...

Acetylcholine and spinal locomotor networks: The insider

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2021
This article aims to review studies that have investigated the role of neurons that use the transmitter acetylcholine (ACh) in controlling the operation of locomotor neural networks within the spinal cord. This cholinergic system has the particularity of

Repurposing Pilocarpine Hydrochloride for Treatment of Candida albicans Infections

open access: yesmSphere, 2019
Acetylcholine modulates the virulence of Candida albicans and regulates an appropriate immune response to infection in a Galleria mellonella infection model. Indeed, the evidence suggests that C.

Lack of an association between SNPs within the cholinergic receptor genes and smoking behavior in a Czech post-MONICA study [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2014
Smoking has a significant heritable component of approximately 30-60%. Recent genome wide association studies have identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the nicotinic cholinergic receptor subunits 3 (rs578776), 5 (rs16969968) and β3 ...

Cholinergic Stimulation of the Adult Zebrafish Brain Induces Phosphorylation of Glycogen Synthase Kinase-3 β and Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase in the Telencephalon

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2019
The sequencing of the zebrafish genome, the emergence of powerful gene-editing tools, and the development of in vivo imaging techniques have propelled the economical zebrafish into prominence as a biomedical research model.

Selective cholinergic depletion in medial septum leads to impaired long term potentiation and glutamatergic synaptic currents in the hippocampus. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Cholinergic depletion in the medial septum (MS) is associated with impaired hippocampal-dependent learning and memory. Here we investigated whether long term potentiation (LTP) and synaptic currents, mediated by alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-isoxazole-4-
