Brain muscarinic cholinergic receptors in Huntington's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Muscarinic cholinergic receptors and choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) activity were studied in postmortem brain tissue from patients with Huntington's disease and matched control subjects.

Carbachol Induces Ca2+-Dependent Contraction via Muscarinic M2 and M3 Receptors in Rat Intestinal Subepithelial Myofibroblasts

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2009
.: Intestinal myofibroblasts (IMFs) that exist adjacent to the basement membrane of intestines have contractility and contribute to physical barriers of the intestine.

Slow synaptic transmission in frog sympathetic ganglia [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Bullfrog ganglia contain two classes of neurone, B and C cells, which receive different inputs and exhibit different slow synaptic potentials. B cells, to which most effort has been directed, possess slow and late slow EPSPs.

Selective M3 Muscarinic Receptor Antagonist Inhibits Small-Cell Lung Carcinoma Growth in a Mouse Orthotopic Xenograft Model

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2011
.: In small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC), acetylcholine (ACh) is synthesized and secreted, and it acts as an autocrine growth factor through activation of its receptors, muscarinic receptor (mAChR) and nicotinic receptor (nAChR). Alteration of tumor growth

Possible involvement of acetylcholine-mediated inflammation in airway diseases

open access: yesAllergology International, 2018
Inhaled bronchodilator treatment with a long acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) reduces symptoms and the risk of exacerbations in COPD and asthma. However, increasing evidence from cell culture and animal studies suggests that anti-muscarinic drugs ...

Quantitative surface field analysis: learning causal models to predict ligand binding affinity and pose. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We introduce the QuanSA method for inducing physically meaningful field-based models of ligand binding pockets based on structure-activity data alone. The method is closely related to the QMOD approach, substituting a learned scoring field for a pocket ...

Interaction of the Xanthine Nucleotide Binding Goα Mutant with G Protein-coupled Receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
We constructed a double mutant version of the α subunit of Go that was regulated by xanthine nucleotides instead of guanine nucleotides (GoαX). We investigated the interaction between GoαX and G protein-coupled receptors in vitro.

Cholinergic Regulation of Orexin/Hypocretin Neurons Through M3Muscarinic Receptor in Mice

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2008
The cholinergic system plays an important role in regulation of arousal and REM sleep. In the present study, we showed that a muscarinic receptor agonist, carbachol (CCh), activates almost 20% of orexin-producing neurons (orexin neurons), which play a ...

New strategic insights into managing fungal biofilms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Fungal infections have dramatically increased in the last decades in parallel with an increase of populations with impaired immunity, resulting from medical conditions such as cancer, transplantation or other chronic diseases.
