Cholinergic receptor alterations in the cerebral cortex of spinal cord injured rat
Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2017 Many areas of the cerebral cortex process sensory information or coordinate motor output necessary for control of movement. Disturbances in cortical cholinergic system can affect locomotor coordination.

Effects of novel muscarinic M3 receptor ligand C1213 in pulmonary arterial hypertension models. [PDF]
, 2016 Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a complex disease comprising a pathologic remodeling and thickening of the pulmonary vessels causing an after load on the right heart ventricle that can result in ventricular failure. Triggered by oxidative stress, episodes

Experimental biology and medicine, 2020 Maintenance of the highly plastic intestinal epithelium relies upon stem cells localized to intestinal crypts. Recent evidence suggests muscarinic acetylcholine signaling impacts epithelial barrier function, proliferation, and apoptosis.

Toxins, 2011 Muscarinic toxin 7 (MT7) is a mamba venom peptide that binds selectively to the M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor. We have previously shown that the second (ECL2) and third (ECL3) extracellular loops of the M1 receptor are critically involved in ...

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2021 The dopamine transporter (DAT) clears neurotransmitters from the extracellular space and serves as an important regulator of signal amplitude and duration at sites of dopamine release. Several different intracellular signaling pathways have been observed

Dynamic regulation of quaternary organization of the M1 muscarinic receptor by subtype-selective antagonist drugs [PDF]
, 2016 Although rhodopsin-like G protein-coupled receptors can exist as both monomers and non-covalently associated dimers/oligomers, the steady-state proportion of each form and whether this is regulated by receptor ligands is unknown.

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

Elevated Hippocampal Cholinergic Neurostimulating Peptide precursor protein (HCNP-pp) mRNA in the amygdala in major depression [PDF]
, 2015 The amygdala is innervated by the cholinergic system and is involved in major depressive disorder (MDD). Evidence suggests a hyper-activate cholinergic system in MDD.

Striatal cholinergic interneurons generate beta and gamma oscillations in the corticostriatal circuit and produce motor deficits [PDF]
, 2016 Cortico-basal ganglia-thalamic (CBT) neural circuits are critical modulators of cognitive and motor function. When compromised, these circuits contribute to neurological and psychiatric disorders, such as Parkinson's disease (PD).

Structure of the m1 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor Gene and Its Promoter [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1997 The m1 receptor is one of five muscarinic receptors that mediate the metabotropic actions of acetylcholine in the nervous system where it is expressed predominantly in the telencephalon and autonomic ganglia. RNase protection, primer extension, and 5'-rapid amplification of cDNA ends analysis of a rat cosmid clone containing the entire m1 gene ...
