Acetylcholine From Solitary Chemosensory Cell, Not Neuron, Regulates Basal Cell Fate Driving Eosinophilic Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study identifies that Ach levels are elevated in eCRSwNP and primarily released from SCCs rather than neurons. Ach induces epithelial remodeling in eCRSwNP by binding to M1R/M3R and activating YAP signaling in basal cells, driving basal cell hyperplasia and abnormal differentiation. Blocking M1R/M3R with TB inhibits eCRSwNP progression.

Effect of the Arg16Gly β2‐Adrenergic Receptor Polymorphism on Long‐Term Mepolizumab Response and Clinical Remission in Severe Eosinophilic Asthma: A Genotype‐Stratified, Multicenter Study

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study examines the association between the rs1042713 (Arg16Gly) polymorphism of the β2‐adrenergic receptor and the risk of severe eosinophilic asthma, as well as its influence on mepolizumab long‐term effectiveness and clinical remission. The Arg16 allele is associated with increased risk of severe disease and potentially diminished long‐term ...

Data regarding M1 muscarinic receptor-mediated modulation of hepatic catalase activity in response to oxidative stress

Data in Brief, 2016
We recently demonstrated the role of M1 muscarinic receptors (M1R) in modulating oxidative stress in liver and hepatocytes (Urrunaga et al., 2015) [1]. Here we provide data regarding the effect of a novel M1R agonist, VU0357017 (Lebois et al., 2010) [2],

Migrastatin Acts as a Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor Antagonist [PDF]

The 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.

Update on Non‐Biological and RNA‐Based Therapeutics in Chronic Inflammatory Diseases: Precision Medicine Through Small Molecules: An EAACI Position Paper

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the last decades, critical advancements in research technology and knowledge on disease mechanisms steered therapeutic approaches for chronic inflammatory diseases towards unprecedented target specificity. For allergic and chronic lung diseases, biologic drugs pioneered this goal, acquiring on the way—through the clinical use of monoclonal ...

Spatial intensity distribution analysis: studies of G Protein-coupled receptor oligomerization [PDF]

, 2018
Spatial intensity distribution analysis (SpIDA) is a recently developed approach for determining quaternary structure information on fluorophore-labelled proteins of interest in situ. It can be applied to live or fixed cells and native tissue.

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
