Evidence for Respiratory Neuromodulator Interdependence after Cholinergic Disruption in the Ventral Respiratory Column [PDF]

, 2015
Reverse dialysis of the muscarinic receptor antagonist, atropine (ATR, 50 mM), into the pre-Bötzinger Complex region of the ventral respiratory column (VRC) of awake and sleeping goats increases breathing frequency and serotonin (5-HT), substance P (SP),

Deciphering the skeletal interoceptive circuitry to control bone homeostasis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review introduces the skeletal interoceptive circuitry, covering the ascending signals from bone tissues to the brain (sensors), the central neural circuits that integrate this information and dispatch commands (CPU), and the descending pathways that regulate bone homeostasis (effectors).

M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor facilitates the endocytosis of mu opioid receptor mediated by morphine independently of the formation of heteromeric complexes [PDF]

, 2017
Morphine inefficiency to induce the internalization of mu opioid (MOP) receptors observed in numerous experimental models constitutes a paradigm of G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) functional selectivity.

Histamine H1 Receptor Down-Regulation Mediated by M3 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor Subtype

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2004
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 ...

Structure of the human M2 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor bound to an antagonist

Nature, 2011
The parasympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system regulates the activity of multiple organ systems. Muscarinic receptors are G-protein-coupled receptors that mediate the response to acetylcholine released from parasympathetic nerves.

Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors of the developing retina. [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1977
Six- and 13-day chicken embryo retinas contain 10 and 320 fmol per mg of protein of specific binding sites for 3-[3H]quinuclidinyl benzilate, a ligand of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. Most of the receptors of 13-day embryo retina were found, by autoradiography, to be localized in two sharp bands within the inner synaptic layer of the retina.

Population Pharmacokinetic and Exposure‐Response Analysis of the Cognitive Effects of TAK‐071 in Participants With Parkinson Disease and Cognitive Impairment

Clinical Pharmacology in Drug Development, EarlyView.
Abstract TAK‐071 is a novel muscarinic M1 positive allosteric modulator under investigation for the treatment of cognitive impairment and falls associated with Parkinson disease (PD). This study evaluated population pharmacokinetics of TAK‐071 following single (1‐160 mg) and multiple (3‐15 mg once daily) oral‐dose TAK‐071 in 112 healthy participants ...

Cholinergic modulation of dopamine overflow in the rat neostriatum: A fast cyclic voltammetric study in vitro [PDF]

, 1994
Stimulus-evoked dopamine overflow in rat neostriatal slices was determined using fast cyclic voltammetry. The dopamine efflux induced by intrastriatal stimulation increased with stimulus intensity and was found to be enhanced by more than 100% upon ...

Gαq-Coupled Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptors Enhance Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor Signaling in Caenorhabditis elegans Mating Behavior

Journal of Neuroscience, 2007
In this study, we address why metabotropic and ionotropic cholinergic signaling pathways are used to facilitate motor behaviors. We demonstrate that a Gαq-coupled muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) signaling pathway enhances nicotinic ...

Perampanel as a second‐line therapy to midazolam reduces soman‐induced status epilepticus and neurodegeneration in rats

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective A benzodiazepine (diazepam or midazolam) is one of the current standards of care therapies to effectively terminate organophosphorus nerve agent‐induced status epilepticus when administered shortly after onset. Preclinical studies showed that benzodiazepines were less effective in stopping status epilepticus when treatment was ...
