Histamine H1 Receptor Down-Regulation Mediated by M3 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor Subtype
Heterologous down-regulation of histamine H1 receptor (H1R) mediated by muscarinic acetylcholine receptor subtype was investigated using five kinds of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells stably co-expressing the human H1R and one of the five (M1 –M5 ...

The M3 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor Promotes Epidermal Differentiation. [PDF]
The M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor is predominantly expressed in the basal epidermal layer where it mediates the effects of the autocrine/paracrine cytotransmitter acetylcholine. Patients with the autoimmune blistering disease pemphigus develop autoantibodies to M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor and show alterations in keratinocyte adhesion ...

M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor-reactive Th17 cells in primary Sjögren's syndrome. [PDF]
M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (M3R) is one of the autoantigens associated with Sjögren's syndrome (SS) and is localized in exocrine glands where disease-specific inflammation occurs. The inflammatory lesion is characterized by infiltration of CD4+ T cells, including clonally expanded Th17 cells.

Structure-guided development of selective M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonists. [PDF]
Significance The development of selective antagonists for muscarinic acetylcholine receptors is challenging due to high homology in orthosteric binding sites among subtypes. Starting from a single amino acid difference in the orthosteric pockets in M2 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (M2R) and M3R, we developed an M3R-selective antagonist ...

Signal transduction by M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor in prostate cancer. [PDF]
The present study aimed to investigate the potential mechanisms used during signal transduction by M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (CHRM3) in prostate cancer. The microarray datasets of GSE3325, including 5 clinically localized primary prostate cancers and 4 benign prostate tissues, were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database.

Novel insights into M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor physiology and structure. [PDF]
Recent studies with M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (M3R) mutant mice suggest that drugs selectively targeting this receptor subtype may prove useful for the treatment of various pathophysiological conditions. Moreover, the use of M3R-based designer G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) has provided novel insights into how Gq-coupled GPCRs can ...

Structure and dynamics of the M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor. [PDF]
Acetylcholine, the first neurotransmitter to be identified, exerts many of its physiological actions via activation of a family of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) known as muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs). Although the five mAChR subtypes (M1-M5) share a high degree of sequence homology, they show pronounced differences in G-protein ...

Expression of M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors in gastric cancer
Gastric cancer represents a real public health problem as far as incidence, aggressiveness and unfavorable prognosis are concerned. The autonomous nervous system might be one of the major factors involved in the onset, progression, and metastasis, both sympathetically and parasympathetically.

Effect of M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor deficiency on collagen antibody-induced arthritis. [PDF]
Background: There is increasing evidence that the non-neuronal cholinergic system might be of importance for the pathology of rheumatoid arthritis. The role of M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (M3R) in this regard has, however, not been investigated to date.
