Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M1 mediates prostate cancer cell migration and invasion through hedgehog signaling [PDF]
The autonomic nervous system contributes to prostate cancer proliferation and metastasis. However, the exact molecular mechanism remains unclear. In this study, muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M1 (CHRM1) expression was measured via immunohistochemical ...

The novel orthosteric agonist M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor reveals anti-Alzheimer’s disease activity [PDF]
Cholinergic treatments with an emphasis on M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) agonists as potential modulating agents are a new approach in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) therapy. In previous research, we designed and characterized novel thiazolidine-

Long-Term—But Not Short-Term—Plasticity at the Mossy Fiber–CA3 Pyramidal Cell Synapse in Hippocampus Is Altered in M1/M3 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor Double Knockout Mice [PDF]
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors are well-known for their crucial involvement in hippocampus-dependent learning and memory, but the exact roles of the various receptor subtypes (M1–M5) are still not fully understood.

Rapid antidepressant actions of scopolamine: Role of medial prefrontal cortex and M1-subtype muscarinic acetylcholine receptors [PDF]
Clinical studies demonstrate that scopolamine, a non-selective muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAchR) antagonist, produces rapid therapeutic effects in depressed patients, and preclinical studies report that the actions of scopolamine require ...

Downstream Signaling of Muscarinic M<sub>4</sub> Receptors Is Regulated by Receptor Density and Cellular Environment. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Multiple muscarinic M4 receptor modulators are currently advancing in clinical development for the treatment of positive symptoms in schizophrenia, including agonists and positive allosteric modulators. Considering the importance of comprehending M4 receptor pharmacology for these therapeutic applications, this study investigates M4 receptor ...
