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

Affinity of muscarinic receptor antagonists for three putative muscarinic receptor binding sites [PDF]
British Journal of Pharmacology, 1989 A range of muscarinic receptor antagonists were examined for affinity at the M1 muscarinic binding site, present in rat cerebrocortical membranes and the M2 muscarinic binding sites of rat cardiac and submaxillary gland membranes. The results obtained were consistent with the presence of three classes of muscarinic binding site.

Possible involvement of acetylcholine-mediated inflammation in airway diseases
Allergology International, 2018 Inhaled bronchodilator treatment with a long acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) reduces symptoms and the risk of exacerbations in COPD and asthma. However, increasing evidence from cell culture and animal studies suggests that anti-muscarinic drugs ...

Inhibition of Connexin43 hemichannels impairs spatial short-term memory without affecting spatial working memory [PDF]
, 2016 Astrocytes are active players in higher brain function as they can release gliotransmitters, which are essential for synaptic plasticity. Various mechanisms have been proposed for gliotransmission, including vesicular mechanisms as well as non-vesicular ...
