The Effect Of A Muscarinic Antagonist On The Lipase Activity
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.

Effect of Neuromodulation of Short-Term Plasticity on Information Processing in Hippocampal Interneuron Synapses [PDF]
Neurons in a micro-circuit connected by chemical synapses can have their connectivity affected by the prior activity of the cells. The number of synapses available for releasing neurotransmitter can be decreased by repetitive activation through depletion of readily releasable neurotransmitter (NT), or increased through facilitation, where the ...

Weakly Coupled Oscillators in a Slowly Varying World [PDF]
We extend the theory of weakly coupled oscillators to incorporate slowly varying inputs and parameters. We employ a combination of regular perturbation and an adiabatic approximation to derive equations for the phase-difference between a pair of oscillators. We apply this to the simple Hopf oscillator and then to a biophysical model.

Muscarinic cholinergic receptor (M2) plays a crucial role in the development of myopia in mice
SUMMARY Myopia is a huge public health problem worldwide, reaching the highest incidence in Asia. Identification of susceptible genes is crucial for understanding the biological basis of myopia.

Altruism and Antagonistic Pleiotropy in Penna Ageing Model [PDF]
The Penna ageing model is based on mutation accumulation theory. We show that it also allows for self-organization of antagonistic pleiotropy which helps at young age at the expense of old age. This can be interpreted as emergence of altruism.

Guidelines for the Treatment of Urinary Incontineence and Overactive Bladder
Urinary incontinence (UI) is the involuntary leakage of urine, while overactive bladder (OAB) is characterised by frequency, nocturia and urgency, with or without incontinence.

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

Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists: Effects on Pulmonary Function [PDF]
In healthy lungs, muscarinic receptors control smooth muscle tone, mucus secretion, vasodilation, and inflammation. In chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma, cholinergic mechanisms contribute to increased bronchoconstriction and mucus secretion that limit airflow.
