Muscarinic receptor oligomerization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) have been classically described as monomeric entities that function by binding in a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio to both ligand and downstream signalling proteins.

Muscarinic Receptor Subtypes Mediating Positive and Negative Inotropy in the Developing Chick Ventricle

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2007
The inotropic response to muscarinic receptor stimulation of isolated chick ventricular myocardium was examined at various developmental stages, and the receptor subtype involved was pharmacologically characterized.

Virtual Affinity Fingerprints for Target Fishing: A New Application of Drug Profile Matching [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We recently introduced Drug Profile Matching (DPM), a novel virtual affinity fingerprinting bioactivity prediction method. DPM is based on the docking profiles of ca.

Rapid antidepressant actions of scopolamine: Role of medial prefrontal cortex and M1-subtype muscarinic acetylcholine receptors

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2015
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 ...

M1 receptors interacting with NMDAR enhance delay-related neuronal firing and improve working memory performance

open access: yesCurrent Research in Neurobiology, 2021
The recurrent excitatory circuits in dlPFC underlying working memory are known to require activation of glutamatergic NMDA receptors (NMDAR). The neurons in these circuits also rely on acetylcholine to maintain persistent activity, with evidence for ...

Mir-34a-5p Mediates Cross-Talk between M2 Muscarinic Receptors and Notch-1/EGFR Pathways in U87MG Glioblastoma Cells: Implication in Cell Proliferation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive human brain tumor. The high growth potential and decreased susceptibility to apoptosis of the glioma cells is mainly dependent on genetic amplifications or mutations of oncogenic or pro-apoptotic genes ...

Endocannabinoids mediate muscarinic acetylcholine receptor-dependent long-term depression in the adult medial prefrontal cortex

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
Cholinergic inputs into the prefrontal cortex (PFC) are associated with attention and cognition; however there is evidence that acetylcholine also has a role in PFC dependent learning and memory.

Relationship between membrane phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate and receptor-mediated inhibition of native neuronal M channels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The relationship between receptor-induced membrane phosphatidylinositol-4'5'-bisphosphate (PIP2) hydrolysis and M-current inhibition was assessed in single-dissociated rat sympathetic neurons by simultaneous or parallel recording of membrane current and ...

Presynaptic M1 muscarinic cholinoceptors mediate inhibition of excitatory synaptic transmission in the hippocampus in vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
The effects of the cholinoceptor agonist, carbachol (CCh), were examined in the rat hippocampal slice preparation. Intracellular recordings from CA1 pyramidal neurones revealed that CCh (1–3 μM) inhibited excitatory postsynaptic responses evoked by ...
