Molecular Basis for Activation to Inhibition Switching in Kv7.2 Channel Modulators

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The paper describes the serendipitous discovery of chemical manipulation allowing the activator‐to‐inhibitor switching in Kv7.2 channel modulators. The molecular determinants driving this switch have been rationalized by multidisciplinary investigation encompassing synthetic and analytical chemistry, in silico methods, cryo‐EM analysis ...

Combination therapy with indacaterol and glycopyrronium bromide in the management of COPD: an update on the evidence for efficacy and safety

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Respiratory Disease, 2015
The international guidelines on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) recommend inhaled bronchodilators for maintenance treatment of the disease. These drugs include β2-agonists and muscarinic antagonists, which are both available as short-acting ...

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

open access: yesJournal 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

Characterization of Prejunctional Muscarinic Receptors: Effects on the Release of VIP and Functional Responses and Receptor Expression in the Ovine Submandibular Gland

open access: yesAdvances in Pharmacological Sciences, 2009
In the in vivo experiments on anaesthetized sheep, it was presently examined whether muscarinic receptor antagonists with diverse selectivity affect the release of VIP in response to electrical stimulation of the parasympathetic chorda tympanic nerve ...
