From the Gut to the Brain: Microplastic‐Associated Neurovascular Dysfunction and Implications for Stroke Risk

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic oral exposure to microplastics may disrupt gut microbiota homeostasis and intestinal barrier integrity, potentially engaging the gut–brain axis and systemic inflammatory responses. These alterations may be associated with impaired blood–brain barrier function, cerebral microvascular dysfunction, and enhanced endothelial inflammation, pro ...

A novel α-conotoxin, PeIA, cloned from Conus pergrandis, discriminates between Rat α9α10 and α7 nicotinic cholinergic receptors [PDF]

, 2005
The α9 and α10 nicotinic cholinergic subunits assemble to form the receptor believed to mediate synaptic transmission between efferent olivocochlear fibers and hair cells of the cochlea, one of the few examples of postsynaptic function for a non-muscle ...

New approaches to treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with Colla corii asini

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Colla corii asini improves chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) treatment through anti‐inflammatory, antioxidant, immune‐modulatory, and lung‐nourishing effects, addressing current therapeutic challenges via multitarget mechanisms. Abstract Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the leading causes of death and disability ...

Chronic Nicotine Selectively Enhances α4β2* Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors in the Nigrostriatal Dopamine Pathway [PDF]

, 2009
These electrophysiological experiments, in slices and intact animals, study the effects of in vivo chronic exposure to nicotine on functional α4β2* nAChRs in the nigrostriatal dopaminergic (DA) pathway.

Dysregulated homeostasis of acetylcholine levels in immune cells of RR-multiple sclerosis patients [PDF]

, 2016
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is characterized by pro-inflammatory cytokine production. Acetylcholine (ACh) contributes to the modulation of central and peripheral inflammation.

Clinical and Biological Determinants of Longitudinal Cognitive Function in Patients With GBA1 Variants and Subthalamic Deep Brain Stimulation

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Whether cognitive decline in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) carrying GBA1 variants is accelerated after subthalamic deep brain stimulation (STN‐DBS) remains controversial. Clarifying long‐term cognitive outcomes is essential for informed decision making.

A Dopamine-Acetylcholine Cascade: Simulating Learned and Lesion-Induced Behavior of Striatal Cholinergic Interneurons [PDF]

, 2007
The "teaching signal" that modulates reinforcement learning at cortico-striatal synapses may be a sequence composed of an adaptively scaled DA burst, a brief ACh burst, and a scaled ACh pause.

An in vivo biosensor for neurotransmitter release and in situ receptor activity. [PDF]

, 2010
Tools from molecular biology, combined with in vivo optical imaging techniques, provide new mechanisms for noninvasively observing brain processes. Current approaches primarily probe cell-based variables, such as cytosolic calcium or membrane potential ...

Involvement of HCN Channel in Muscarinic Inhibitory Action on Tonic Firing of Dorsolateral Striatal Cholinergic Interneurons

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016
The striatum is the most prominent nucleus in the basal ganglia and plays an important role in motor movement regulation. The cholinergic interneurons (ChIs) in striatum are involved in the motion regulation by releasing acetylcholine (ACh) and ...
