ACS Chemical Neuroscience, 2017 Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the leading cause of dementia worldwide, and currently no disease-modifying therapy is available to slow or prevent AD, underscoring the urgent need for neuroprotective therapies. Selective M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor

Myoclonic Dystonia: A Common Phenomenology in the Pleomorphic Movements of Angelman Syndrome
Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.Abstract Background Angelman syndrome (AS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by developmental delay, intellectual disability, a sociable demeanor, and abnormal movements. People with AS often exhibit multiple types of abnormal movements, including nonepileptic myoclonus, tremor, and dystonia, which hamper attempts to identify phenomenology

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).

Forebrain Cholinergic Signaling Regulates Innate Immune Responses and Inflammation
Frontiers in Immunology, 2019 The brain regulates physiological functions integral to survival. However, the insight into brain neuronal regulation of peripheral immune function and the neuromediator systems and pathways involved remains limited. Here, utilizing selective genetic and

Cholinergic System Changes in Dopa‐Unresponsive Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease
Movement Disorders, EarlyView.Abstract Background Freezing of gait (FoG) is a debilitating mobility disturbance that becomes increasingly resistant to dopaminergic pharmacotherapies with advancing Parkinson's disease (PD). The pathophysiology underlying the response of FoG to dopaminergic treatment is poorly understood.

Simultaneous release of glutamate and acetylcholine from single magnocellular "cholinergic" basal forebrain neurons [PDF]
, 2006 Basal forebrain (BF) neurons provide the principal cholinergic drive to the hippocampus and cortex. Their degeneration is associated with the cognitive defects of Alzheimer's disease. Immunohistochemical studies suggest that some of these neurons contain

Phosphorylation of the M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor mediates protection in neurodegenerative disease [PDF]
, 2021 AbstractThere are currently no treatments that can slow the progression of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). There is, however, a growing body of evidence that activation of the M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (M1-receptor) can not only restore memory loss in AD patients, but in preclinical animal models can also slow ...

PLoS ONE, 2022 Estrogens are thought to contribute to cognitive function in part by promoting the function of basal forebrain cholinergic neurons that project to the hippocampus and cortical regions including the entorhinal cortex.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2016 Establishing the in vivo activation status of G protein-coupled receptors would not only indicate physiological roles of G protein-coupled receptors but would also aid drug discovery by establishing drug/receptor engagement.

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Background and Purpose Most older people use polypharmacy (≥5 medications), particularly those with cardiovascular disease. The effects of polypharmacy on the cardiovascular system are not well described. We examined the effect of a chronic polypharmacy regimen on left ventricular (LV) function, structure and proteome in young and old mice of both ...
