Enhanced muscarinic M1 receptor gene expression in the corpus striatum of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats [PDF]
Acetylcholine (ACh), the first neurotransmitter to be identified, regulate the activities of central and peripheral functions through interactions with muscarinic receptors. Changes in muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) have been implicated in the

Dynamic Regulation of Quaternary Organization of the M1 Muscarinic Receptor by Subtype-selective Antagonist Drugs. [PDF]
Although rhodopsin-like G protein-coupled receptors can exist as both monomers and non-covalently associated dimers/oligomers, the steady-state proportion of each form and whether this is regulated by receptor ligands is unknown.

Effect of Mutated Cu, Zn Superoxide Dismutase (SOD1G93A) on Modulation of Transductional Pathway Mediated by M1 Muscarinic Receptor in SK-N-BE and NSC-34 Cells [PDF]
The constitutive secretion of antioxidant Cu-Zn Superoxide dismutase (SOD1) has been widely demonstrated in many cellular lines. In addition, we showed that as well as the basal SOD1 secretion, this enzyme is also exported through depolarization of ...

Autoradiography of 3H-pirenzepine and 3H-AFDX-384 in Mouse Brain Regions: Possible Insights into M1, M2, and M4 Muscarinic Receptors Distribution [PDF]
Autoradiography helps to determine the distribution and density of muscarinic receptor (MR) binding sites in the brain. However, it relies on the selectivity of radioligands toward their target.

Xanomeline/trospium-induced polyuria: A patient case report [PDF]
Xanomeline/trospium is a newly approved agent for the management of schizophrenia. Unlike traditional antipsychotics, which are D2 receptor antagonists, xanomeline is an M1/M4 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor agonist coformulated with trospium, a ...

Mechanistic Insights into Allosteric Structure-Function Relationships at the M1 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor [PDF]
Background: Selective and potent positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) of the M1 mAChR have been recently described. Results: Use of structural analogues and mutagenic mapping identified the mechanistic basis for increased PAM activity.

Rapid antidepressant actions of scopolamine: Role of medial prefrontal cortex and M1-subtype muscarinic acetylcholine receptors [PDF]
Clinical studies demonstrate that scopolamine, a non-selective muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAchR) antagonist, produces rapid therapeutic effects in depressed patients, and preclinical studies report that the actions of scopolamine require ...
