Selective M3 Muscarinic Receptor Antagonist Inhibits Small-Cell Lung Carcinoma Growth in a Mouse Orthotopic Xenograft Model

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2011
.: In small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC), acetylcholine (ACh) is synthesized and secreted, and it acts as an autocrine growth factor through activation of its receptors, muscarinic receptor (mAChR) and nicotinic receptor (nAChR). Alteration of tumor growth

The Impact of Removal of Ovarian Hormones on Cholinergic Muscarinic Receptors: Examining Prepulse Inhibition and Receptor Binding

Brain Sciences, 2020
Ovarian hormones, such as estrogens and progesterone, are known to exert beneficial effects on cognition and some psychiatric disorders. The basis of these effects is not fully understood, but may involve altered cholinergic neurotransmission. This study

The Effect Of A Muscarinic Antagonist On The Lipase Activity

, 2015
Lipases constitute one of the most important groups of industrial enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of triacylglycerol to glycerol and fatty acids. Muscarinic antagonist relieves smooth muscle spasm of the gastrointestinal tract and effect on the cardiovascular system.

β3‐Adrenoceptor Agonist Effects on the Urinary Bladder Beyond Detrusor Relaxation

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims β3‐Adrenoceptor agonists such as mirabegron or vibegron reach pharmacokinetic steady‐state within a few days. However, maximum improvements in symptoms of the overactive bladder syndrome are reached at time points later than 4 weeks, that is, detrusor smooth muscle relaxation cannot fully explain clinical effects.

Semi‐Mechanistic Population Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) Modeling of Dupilumab on Pre‐Bronchodilator Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) in Uncontrolled Moderate‐To‐Severe Asthma

CPT: Pharmacometrics &Systems Pharmacology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, we investigated the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) relationship of dupilumab as an add‐on therapy in the intent‐to‐treat (ITT) uncontrolled moderate‐to‐severe asthma population and identified the factors significantly contributing to variability in forced expiratory volume in 1 second; (FEV1).

Muscarinic M1 receptors stimulated by intracerebroventricular administration of McN-A-343 reduces the nerve injury-induced mechanical hypersensitivity via GABAB receptors rather than GABAA receptors in mice

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2020
Cholinergic neurons play an important role in the higher functions of the brain, such as the memory, cognition, and nociception. However, the exact mechanism behind how the stimulation of all the muscarinic M1 receptors in the entire brain results in the
