Origin of spontaneous activity in neonatal and adult rat bladders and its enhancement by stretch and muscarinic agonists.

AJP - Renal Physiology, 2007
This study examined the origin of spontaneous activity in neonatal and adult rat bladders and the effect of stretch and muscarinic agonists and antagonists on spontaneous activity.

Neuropharmacological targets for drug action in vestibular sensory pathways [PDF]

, 2017
The use of pharmacological agents is often the preferred approach to the management of vestibular dysfunction. In the vestibular sensory pathways, the sensory neuroepithelia are thought to be influenced by a diverse number of neuroactive substances that ...

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

, 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.

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

Frontiers 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.

Agonist-induced changes in the modulation of K+ permeability and beating rate by muscarinic agonists in cultured heart cells

The Journal of General Physiology, 1982
The correlation between number of muscarinic cholinergic receptor sites as measured by binding of the muscarinic antagonist [3H]methylscopolamine ([3H]MS) and the ability of muscarinic agonists to mediate a physiologic response was determined in intact ...

Functional characterization of three G protein-coupled acetylcholine receptors in parasitic nematode Trichinella spiralis

International Journal for Parasitology: Drugs and Drug Resistance, 2023
The physiological significance of metabotropic acetylcholine receptors in parasitic nematodes remains largely unexplored. Here, three different Trichinella spiralis G protein-coupled acetylcholine receptors (TsGAR-1, -2, and -3) were identified in the ...

Functional effects of KCNQ K+ channels in airway smooth muscle

Frontiers 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

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

Cells, 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.

Genetics‐Based Targeting Strategies for Precise Neuromodulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this Review, the fundamental principles and implementation protocols of genetics‐based precision neuromodulation are first introduced. Then, wireless and low‐invasive strategies based on nano‐transducing materials are highlighted, along with a dissection and analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of representative studies.

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

Scientific 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.
