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.

Bitopic binding mode of an M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor agonist associated with adverse clinical trial outcomes [PDF]

, 2018
The realisation of the therapeutic potential of targeting the M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (M1 mAChR) for the treatment of cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease has prompted the discovery of M1 mAChR ligands showing efficacy in alleviating ...

Quaternary Structure Determination of the M3 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptors Based on Spectral-FRET [PDF]

Biophysical Journal, 2012
G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) such as human muscarinic acetylcholine receptor 3 (hM3) assume dimeric/oligomeric forms in living cells while maintaining their ability to bind and activate G-proteins. The precise stoichiometry, quaternary organization, and stability of these receptor complexes in living cells remain a subject of significant ...

Enteric dysfunctions in experimental Parkinson's disease: alterations of excitatory cholinergic neurotransmission regulating colonic motility in rats [PDF]

, 2016
Parkinson's disease (PD) is frequently associated with gastrointestinal symptoms, mostly represented by constipation and defecatory dysfunctions.

Resolution of complex fluorescence spectra of lipids and nicotinic acetylcholine receptor by multivariate analysis reveals protein-mediated effects on the receptor's immediate lipid microenvironment [PDF]

PMC Biophysics 2008, 1:6, 2009
Analysis of fluorescent spectra from complex biological systems containing various fluorescent probes with overlapping emission bands is a challenging task. Valuable information can be extracted from the full spectra, however, by using multivariate analysis (MA) of measurements at different wavelengths.

M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor facilitates the endocytosis of mu opioid receptor mediated by morphine independently of the formation of heteromeric complexes [PDF]

, 2017
Morphine inefficiency to induce the internalization of mu opioid (MOP) receptors observed in numerous experimental models constitutes a paradigm of G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) functional selectivity.

The efficacy and tolerability of tarafenacin, a new muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M3 antagonist in patients with overactive bladder; randomised, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled phase 2 study

International journal of clinical practice, 2015
To evaluate the dose–response relationship of tarafenacin, an antimuscarinic agent in development phase, for efficacy and safety, at daily doses of 0.2 and 0.4 mg for the treatment of overactive bladder (OAB)

Muscarinic receptor M3 contributes to intestinal stem cell maintenance via EphB/ephrin-B signaling

Life Science Alliance, 2021
A signaling cascade composing M3, EphB/ephrin-B, and MEK synergizes to guide the homeostasis of intestinal epithelial cell growth and differentiation following modifications of the cholinergic intestinal niche.

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.
