Dynamic regulation of quaternary organization of the M1 muscarinic receptor by subtype-selective antagonist drugs [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Evidence for Respiratory Neuromodulator Interdependence after Cholinergic Disruption in the Ventral Respiratory Column [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Reverse dialysis of the muscarinic receptor antagonist, atropine (ATR, 50 mM), into the pre-Bötzinger Complex region of the ventral respiratory column (VRC) of awake and sleeping goats increases breathing frequency and serotonin (5-HT), substance P (SP),

Calcium Mobilization by Activation of M3/M5 Muscarinic Receptors in the Human Retinoblastoma

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2007
Activation of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChR) is one of the most important signal transduction pathways in the human body. In this study, we investigated the role of mAChR activation in relation to its subtypes in human retinoblastoma cell ...

Deconvolution of complex G protein-coupled receptor signaling in live cells using dynamic mass redistribution measurements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Label-free biosensor technology based on dynamic mass redistribution (DMR) of cellular constituents promises to translate GPCR signaling into complex optical 'fingerprints' in real time in living cells.

Inhibition of cholinergic potentiation of insulin secretion from pancreatic islets by chronic elevation of glucose and fatty acids: Protection by casein kinase 2 inhibitor

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2017
Objectives: Chronic hyperlipidemia and hyperglycemia are characteristic features of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) that are thought to cause or contribute to β-cell dysfunction by “glucolipotoxicity.” Previously we have shown that acute treatment of pancreatic ...

Muscarinic receptor activation in colon cancer selectively augments pro-proliferative microRNA-21, microRNA-221 and microRNA-222 expression.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Overexpression of M3 subtype muscarinic receptors (M3R) hastens colon cancer progression. As microRNA (miRNA) expression is commonly dysregulated in cancer, we used microarrays to examine miRNA profiles in muscarinic receptor agonist-treated human colon ...

Multiple Residues in the Second Extracellular Loop Are Critical for M3 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor Activation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Recent studies suggest that the second extracellular loop (o2 loop) of bovine rhodopsin and other class I G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) targeted by biogenic amine ligands folds deeply into the transmembrane receptor core where the binding of cis ...

Functional M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors in mammalian hearts [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, 2004
In contrast to most peripheral tissues where multiple subtypes of muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) coexist, with each of them playing its part in the orchestra of parasympathetic innervation, the myocardium has been traditionally considered to possess a single mAChR subtype.

Body Biofluids for Minimally‐Invasive Diagnostics: Insights, Challenges, Emerging Technologies, and Clinical Potential

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Recent advances in diagnostics have accelerated the development of miniaturized wearable technologies for the continuous monitoring of diseases. This paradigm is shifting healthcare away from invasive, centralized blood tests toward decentralized monitoring, using alternative body biofluids.
