Non-Neuronal Functions of the M2 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor [PDF]

, 2013
Acetylcholine is an important neurotransmitter whose effects are mediated by two classes of receptors. The nicotinic acetylcholine receptors are ion channels, whereas the muscarinic receptors belong to the large family of G protein coupled seven ...

Ipratropium Bromide-Mediated Myocardial Injury in In Vitro Models of Myocardial Ischaemia/Reperfusion [PDF]

, 2014
Ipratropium bromide, a nonselective muscarinic antagonist, is widely prescribed for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Analyses of COPD patients, with underlying ischaemic heart disease, receiving anticholinergics, have ...

D₂ Dopamine Receptors Colocalize Regulator of G-Protein Signaling 9-2 (RGS9-2) via the RGS9 DEP Domain, and RGS9 Knock-Out Mice Develop Dyskinesias Associated with Dopamine Pathways [PDF]

, 2005
Regulator of G-protein signaling 9-2 (RGS9-2), a member of the RGS family of Gα GTPase accelerating proteins, is expressed specifically in the striatum, which participates in antipsychotic-induced tardive dyskinesia and in levodopa-induced dyskinesia. We

Molecular mechanisms for fetal cardiac arrhythmia in intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy

, 2010
Intrahepatic cholestasis in pregnancy (ICP) is characterized by raised serum bile acids which can cause fetal complications, including preterm labour and intrauterine death. The fetal death in ICP is not well understood. In this thesis, the mechanisms of

Low Molecular Weight mRNA Encodes a Protein That Controls Serotonin 5-HT_(1c) and Acetylcholine M_1 Receptor Sensitivity in Xenopus Oocytes [PDF]

, 1991
Serotonin 5-HT_(1c) and acetylcholine M_1 receptors activate phosphoinositidase, resulting in an increased formation of IP_3 and 1,2 diacylglycerol.

P2Y₂ Nucleotide Receptors Expressed Heterologously in Sympathetic Neurons Inhibit Both N-Type Ca²⁺ and M-Type K⁺ Currents [PDF]

, 1998
The P2Y₂ receptor is a uridine/adenosine triphosphate (UTP/ATP)-sensitive G-protein-linked nucleotide receptor that previously has been reported to stimulate the phosphoinositide signaling pathway.

Potentiation of the M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor normalizes neuronal activation patterns and improves apnea severity in Mecp2+/− mice

Neurobiology of Disease
Rett syndrome (RTT) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that is caused by loss-of-function mutations in the methyl-CpG binding protein 2 (MeCP2) gene. RTT patients experience a myriad of debilitating symptoms, which include respiratory phenotypes that are ...
