Trafficking of M2 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptors [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1999
Internalization is an important mechanism regulating the agonist-dependent responses of G-protein-coupled receptors. The internalization of the M(2) muscarinic cholinergic receptors (mAChR) in HEK293 cells has been demonstrated to occur by an unknown mechanism that is independent of arrestins and dynamin.

The metronomic combination of paclitaxel with cholinergic agonists inhibits triple negative breast tumor progression. Participation of M2 receptor subtype

PLoS ONE, 2020
Triple negative tumors are more aggressive than other breast cancer subtypes and there is a lack of specific therapeutic targets on them. Since muscarinic receptors have been linked to tumor progression, we investigated the effect of metronomic therapy ...

The Spinal Muscarinic M1 Receptors and GABAA Receptors Contribute to the McN-A-343–Induced Antinociceptive Effects During Thermal Stimulation of Mice

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2008
The present study was undertaken to clarify how spinal muscarinic receptors are involved in the antinociceptive effects in thermal stimulation. Intrathecal (i.t.) injection of the muscarinic agonist McN-A-343 inhibited the tail-flick response to noxious ...

Structural homology of myelin basic protein and muscarinic acetylcholine receptor: Significance in the pathogenesis of complex regional pain syndrome

Molecular Pain, 2018
Complex regional pain syndrome is an extremely painful condition that develops after trauma to a limb. Complex regional pain syndrome exhibits autoimmune features in part mediated by autoantibodies against muscarinic‐2 acetylcholine (M2) receptor.

A ROS‐Responsive and Mucoadhesive Thermosensitive Hydrogel Encapsulated with Mizoribine for Synergistic Dry Eye Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The ROS‐responsive in situ thermosensitive MZR@SPPP hydrogel system enables dual‐stage drug loading and sustained ocular delivery. Upon administration, it gelates at ocular surface temperature, enhancing ocular adhesion. By scavenging free radicals, restoring NRF2‐mediated antioxidant defense and mitochondrial homeostasis, and suppressing inflammatory ...

Muscarinic M2 receptor promotes vasopressin synthesis in mice supraoptic nuclei

, 2018
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors have been suggested to be implicated in arginine–vasopressin secretion because intracerebroventricular muscarinic agonist administration induces arginine–vasopressin release into the circulation.

Allosteric modulation in monomers and oligomers of a G protein-coupled receptor

eLife, 2016
The M2 muscarinic receptor is the prototypic model of allostery in GPCRs, yet the molecular and the supramolecular determinants of such effects are unknown.

Non‐Invasive Assessment of Perineural Invasion Density: A Novel Marker for Prognosis and Treatment Stratification in Prostate Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study establishes perineural invasion density (PNID) as a superior prognostic marker in prostate cancer, outperforming conventional perineural invasion in predicting biochemical recurrence and radiographic progression. Concurrent β–blocker use is associated with favorable outcomes exclusively in High–PNID patients. An MRI–based deep learning model

Modulation of M2 muscarinic receptor–receptor interaction by immunoglobulin G antibodies from Chagas' disease patients

, 2011
Summary Circulating immunoglobulin (Ig)G antibodies against M2 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (M2 mAChR) have been implicated in Chagas' disease (ChD) pathophysiology.

Neuronal localization of M2 muscarinic receptor immunoreactivity in the rat amygdala [PDF]

Neuroscience, 2011
Muscarinic cholinergic neurotransmission in the amygdala is critical for memory consolidation in emotional/motivational learning tasks, but little is known about the neuronal distribution of different receptor subtypes. Immunohistochemistry was used in the present investigation to localize the m2 receptor (M2R).
