Migrastatin Acts as a Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor Antagonist [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Antibiotics, 2006
Migrastatin and its analogs have various biological activities such as inhibition of cell migration and anchorage-independent growth of cancer cells. Although its biosynthesis and chemical synthesis have been under investigation, little is known about the biological target of migrastatin.

Cholinergic suppression: A postsynaptic mechanism of long-term associative learning [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Food avoidance learning in the mollusc Pleurobranchaea entails reduction in the responsiveness of key brain interneurons in the feeding neural circuitry, the paracerebral feeding command interneurons (PCNs), to the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (AcCho).

Atropine is more efficient than ZM241385 to reduce a drastic level of fade caused by cisatracurium at 50 Hz

open access: yesActa Scientiarum. Health Sciences, 2016
The effects of atropine (non selective muscarinic antagonist) and ZM241385 (A2A receptors antagonist) in the cisatracurium-induced drastic (100%) level of fade at 50 Hz (10 s) (100% Fade) were compared in the phrenic nerve-diaphragm muscle preparations ...

Solifenacin-induced acute psychosis: a case report

open access: yesGeneral Psychiatry, 2021
Solifenacin is a muscarinic receptor antagonist that has been used to treat overactive bladder since 2004. It has a great affinity for the detrusor M3 receptor, which must be stimulated for bladder muscle contraction, and demonstrates the most selective ...

A photoisomerizable muscarinic antagonist. Studies of binding and of conductance relaxations in frog heart [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
These experiments employ the photoisomerizable compound, 3,3'-bis- [alpha-(trimethylammonium)methyl]azobenzene (Bis-Q), to study the response to muscarinic agents in frog myocardium. In homogenates from the heart, trans-Bis-Q blocks the binding of [3H]-N-

Clock Genes Regulate Ca2+ Signaling and Mitochondrial Bioenergetics to Inhibit Sjögren Disease

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Although Ca2+ signaling and metabolism have been identified as key determinants for the development of Sjögren disease (SjD), the intricate connection between them and salivary gland physiology remains poorly understood. Methods Fluorescence‐based Ca2+ imaging, RNA sequencing, and mitochondrial activity were used to investigate the effects of

The possible mechanisms of protocatechuic acid-induced central analgesia

open access: yesSaudi Pharmaceutical Journal, 2018
It is aimed to investigate the central antinociceptive effect of protocatechuic acid and the involvement of stimulation of opioidergic, serotonin 5-HT2A/2C, α2-adrenergic and muscarinic receptors in protocatechuic acid-induced central analgesia in mice ...

Long-term activation upon brief exposure to xanomleline is unique to M1 and M4 subtypes of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Xanomeline is an agonist endowed with functional preference for M1/M4 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. It also exhibits both reversible and wash-resistant binding to and activation of these receptors.
