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 ...

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

Fentanyl Disrupts Vagal Control of Airway Tone to Induce Transient Obstruction
ABSTRACT Aim Opioid‐induced respiratory depression (OIRD) is the primary cause of death in opioid overdose, resulting from both suppressed respiratory rhythm and increased airway and thoracic rigidity that compromise ventilation and resuscitation. While the effect(s) of opioids on central rhythm‐generating circuits are well documented, the mechanisms ...

Mechanisms of phospholipase D stimulation by m3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors [PDF]
In human embryonic kidney cells stably expressing the human m3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) subtype, agonist (carbachol) activation stimulated phospholipase C, increased cytoplasmic calcium concentration, induced tyrosine phosphorylation of various cellular proteins and activated phospholipase D. Bypassing membrane receptors, phospholipase

Muscarinic M2 acetylcholine receptor distribution in the guinea-pig gastrointestinal tract [PDF]
In the enteric nervous system, acetylcholine is the most common neurotransmitter to induce gastrointestinal smooth muscle contractions. Cholinergic signaling is mediated by muscarinic acetylcholine receptors on the surface of smooth muscle cells.

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 ...

Extrinsic intestinal denervation modulates tumor development in the small intestine of ApcMin/+ mice [PDF]
Background Innervation interacts with enteric immune responses. Chronic intestinal inflammation is associated with increased risk of colorectal cancer. We aimed to study potential extrinsic neuronal modulation of intestinal tumor development in a mouse ...

Abstract figure legend During colonic motor complex activity, enteric glia play a pivotal role by releasing the S100 calcium‐binding protein B (S100B). This gliotransmitter has both intra‐ and extracellular functions, including the regulation of neuronal and glial excitability within the enteric nervous system.

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.

Assessment of the molecular mechanisms of action of novel 4-phenylpyridine-2-one and 6-phenylpyrimidin-4-one allosteric modulators at the M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors [PDF]
Positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) that target the M1 muscarinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptor (M1 mAChR) are potential treatments for cognitive deficits in conditions such as Alzheimer's disease and schizophrenia.
