Convulsant bicuculline modifies CNS muscarinic receptor affinity

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2006
Background Previous work from this laboratory has shown that the administration of the convulsant drug 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MP), a GAD inhibitor, modifies not only GABA synthesis but also binding of the antagonist [3H]-quinuclidinyl benzilate ([3H ...

Synthesis of New Cardioselective M2 Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists.

open access: yesChemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2000
A series of 5H-dibenz[b,f]azepine derivatives was prepared and evaluated for binding affinities to muscarinic receptors in vitro. Among them, compound 8 showed a high affinity for human recombinant M2 receptors (Ki=2.6 nm), a low affinity for M4 receptors (39-fold less than for M2 receptors) and a very low affinity for M1 and M3 receptors (119- and 112-

Spreading depolarization and its influence on epileptiform activity

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Spreading depolarization (SD) is a transient disruption of electrographic activity that slowly propagates through the gray matter by chemical contiguity, and it is characterized by a large depolarization of neurons and glial cells. SD, which is associated with massive changes in ion homeostasis, including extreme increases in [K+]o, was shown ...

Cholinergic neurons in the dorsomedial hypothalamus regulate food intake

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2017
Objective: Central cholinergic neural circuits play a role in the regulation of feeding behavior. The dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH) is considered the appetite-stimulating center and contains cholinergic neurons.

Further Insights Into Anticholinergic Action Informed by Japanese Anticholinergic Risk Scale

open access: yesGeriatrics &Gerontology International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increased anticholinergic burden caused by medications in older adults is one of the adverse drug reactions of particular concern, as it can exacerbate the onset of geriatric syndromes or induce cognitive dysfunction, and is also related to the issue of polypharmacy.
