ABSTRACT Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a major cause of cancer‐related mortality, especially in the Western world, and its incidence is expected to increase in the years to come. Prevention and early detection are key strategies to improve CRC morbidity and mortality.

Swimming against the tide: investigations of the C-Bouton synapse
C-boutons are important cholinergic modulatory loci for state-dependent alterations in motoneuron firing rate. Type 2 muscarinic acetylcholine (m2) receptors are concentrated postsynaptic to C-boutons, and m2 receptor activation increases motoneuron ...

ABSTRACT The dorsal and ventral hippocampus have distinct processing properties, but it remains unclear if interneuron subtypes differ in connectivity along the dorsoventral axis. Oriens lacunosum‐moleculare (OLM) interneurons, identified by the Chrna2 gene, are known to regulate memory processes differently along this axis. OLMɑ2 cells bidirectionally

In hippocampal CA1, muscarinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptor (mAChR) activation via exogenous application of cholinergic agonists has been shown to presynaptically inhibit Schaffer collateral (SC) glutamatergic inputs in stratum radiatum (SR), and ...

Probing the role of the cation–π interaction in the binding sites of GPCRs using unnatural amino acids [PDF]
We describe a general application of the nonsense suppression methodology for unnatural amino acid incorporation to probe drug–receptor interactions in functional G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), evaluating the binding sites of both the M2 muscarinic

BackgroundThe development of the nervous system involves an initially exuberant production of neurons that make an excessive number of synaptic contacts. The initial overproduction of synapses promotes connectivity. Hebbian competition between axons with

This study explores the role of Central Pattern Generators (CPGs) in locomotor recovery after spinal cord injury (SCI). It examines CPG organization, function, and modulation through amino acids, biogenic amines, and acetylcholine. Therapeutic strategies, including pharmacological, electrical, and optogenetic approaches, are reviewed, alongside current

β3‐Adrenoceptor Agonist Effects on the Urinary Bladder Beyond Detrusor Relaxation
ABSTRACT Aims β3‐Adrenoceptor agonists such as mirabegron or vibegron reach pharmacokinetic steady‐state within a few days. However, maximum improvements in symptoms of the overactive bladder syndrome are reached at time points later than 4 weeks, that is, detrusor smooth muscle relaxation cannot fully explain clinical effects.

Mechanistic insights into allosteric structure-function relationships at the M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor [PDF]
Background: Selective and potent positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) of the M1 mAChR have been recently described. Results: Use of structural analogues and mutagenic mapping identified the mechanistic basis for increased PAM activity.
