Carbachol increases intracellular free calcium concentrations in human granulosa-lutein cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
We investigated whether the stimulation of human granulosa-lutein cells with muscarinic and nicotinic receptor agonists can cause increases in intracellular free calcium (Ca2+), using Fura-2 microfluorimetry.

Temporal response of ectopic activity in guinea pig ventricular myocardium in response to isoproterenol and acetylcholine

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2015
Both beta adrenergic and muscarinic receptor stimulation independently potentiate arrhythmogenesis. However, the effect of simultaneous stimulation on arrhythmogenesis is not well known.

Radioprotective effect of lidocaine on neurotransmitter agonist-induced secretion in irradiated salivary glands. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Previously we verified the radioprotective effect of lidocaine on the function and ultrastructure of salivary glands in rabbits. However, the underlying mechanism of lidocaine's radioprotective effect is unknown.

Functional effects of KCNQ K+ channels in airway smooth muscle

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2013
KCNQ (Kv7) channels underlie a voltage-gated K+ current best known for control of neuronal excitability, and its inhibition by Gq/11-coupled, muscarinic signaling. Studies have indicated expression of KCNQ channels in airway smooth muscle (ASM), a tissue

Subicular Astrocytes Govern Seizure‐Impaired Fear Memory

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Astrocytes in dorsal subiculum act as a critical modulator of seizure‐associated cognitive dysfunction, operating through a Ca2+‐dependent adenosine‐linked astrocyte‐neuron signaling pathway that disrupts neuronal circuit homeostasis. This research highlights the potential of astrocyte‐targeted interventions as a therapeutic strategy, moving beyond the

Agonist-selective activation of individual G-proteins by muscarinic receptors

open access: yesScientific Reports
Selective activation of individual subtypes of muscarinic receptors is a promising way to safely alleviate a wide range of pathological conditions in the central nervous system and the periphery as well.

Single Inhaler LABA/LAMA for COPD

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2019
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common disabling disease characterized by progressive airflow obstruction. Great efforts were spent in the development of drugs able to improve symptoms, quality of life, reduce exacerbations ...

Effects of (a Combination of) the Beta2-Adrenoceptor Agonist Indacaterol and the Muscarinic Receptor Antagonist Glycopyrrolate on Intrapulmonary Airway Constriction

open access: yesCells, 2021
Expression of bronchodilatory β2-adrenoceptors and bronchoconstrictive muscarinic M3-receptors alter with airway size. In COPD, (a combination of) β2-agonists and muscarinic M3-antagonists (anticholinergics) are used as bronchodilators.
