Nicotine Suppresses Human Memory Th Cell Subsets With Preferential Effects on Central Memory Th Cells in an α7 Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor‐Dependent Manner

European Journal of Immunology, Volume 56, Issue 4, April 2026.
Human memory Th cells were separated into Tcm (CD45RO+ CD62L+) and Tem (CD45RO+ CD62L−). Nicotine preferentially suppressed Th1‐, Th2‐, Th17‐, and Tfh‐associated programs in Tcm via an α7nAChR‐dependent mechanism, with minimal effect in Tem. ABSTRACT Memory T helper (Th) cells sustain protective recall responses but can also drive chronic inflammation,

Assessment of Novel Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptors in Rat Cerebral Cortex by a Tissue Segment Binding Method

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2010
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) of rat cerebral cortex were evaluated using a tissue segment radioligand binding assay. [3H]-Quinuclidinyl benzilate (QNB, a hydrophobic ligand) specifically bound to mAChRs in the cortex segments.

Differences of Gradient Connectivity and Ventricle Volumes in Long‐Term Sensorineural Hearing Loss Related Cognitive Impairment Correlate With Transcriptional Signatures

Human Brain Mapping, Volume 47, Issue 5, 1 April 2026.
Long‐term hearing loss with cognitive decline shows altered brain gradients, enlarged choroid plexus, and ventricles. These are linked to transcriptomic changes in synaptic, metabolic, and neurodegenerative pathways. ABSTRACT Long‐term sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is a prevalent condition associated with an increased risk of cognitive impairment ...

A Role for the Kolliker-Fuse Nucleus in Cholinergic Modulation of Breathing at Night During Wakefulness and NREM Sleep [PDF]

, 2010
For many years, acetylcholine has been known to contribute to the control of breathing and sleep. To probe further the contributions of cholinergic rostral pontine systems in control of breathing, we designed this study to test the hypothesis that ...

Molecular Pathogenesis of Memory Impairment in Parkinson's Disease: An Exploration of Underlying Mechanisms

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Parkinson's disease (PD) is primarily known for its motor symptoms but is increasingly recognized for its substantial cognitive effects, particularly on memory. This narrative review aims to clarify the complex molecular mechanisms contributing to memory impairment in PD by integrating findings from both animal and clinical ...
