ERNEST COST action overview on the (patho)physiology of GPCRs and orphan GPCRs in the nervous system
G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a large family of cell surface receptors that play a critical role in nervous system function by transmitting signals between cells and their environment. They are involved in many, if not all, nervous system processes, and their dysfunction has been linked to various neurological disorders representing important

Positive allosteric modulation of the muscarinic M1 receptor improves efficacy of antipsychotics in mouse glutamatergic deficit models of behavior [PDF]
Current antipsychotics are effective in treating the positive symptoms associated with schizophrenia, but they remain suboptimal in targeting cognitive dysfunction.

Neuromodulation of the feedforward dentate gyrus-CA3 microcircuit [PDF]
The feedforward dentate gyrus-CA3 microcircuit in the hippocampus is thought to activate ensembles of CA3 pyramidal cells and interneurons to encode and retrieve episodic memories.

Cholinergic and endocannabinoid neuromodulatory effects overlap on neurons of the pedunculopontine nucleus of mice [PDF]
The pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) is a part of the reticular activating system and one of the main sources of the cholinergic fibers in the midbrain, while it is also subject to cholinergic modulation.

Regulation of Src Family Tyrosine Kinases in the Rat Striatum by Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptors [PDF]
Acetylcholine is an important neurotransmitter in the mammalian brain. This transmitter binds to muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChR) to regulate activity of a variety of intracellular signaling molecules.

Analysis of the muscarinic receptor subtype mediating inhibition of the neurogenic contractions in rabbit isolated vas deferens by a series of polymethylene tetra-amines [PDF]
1. The pharmacological characteristics of the presynaptic muscarinic receptor subtype, which mediates inhibition of the neurogenic contractions in the prostatic portion of rabbit vas deferens, have been investigated by using a series of polymethylene ...

Novel aspects of cholinergic regulation of colonic ion transport [PDF]
Nicotinic receptors are not only expressed by excitable tissues, but have been identified in various epithelia. One aim of this study was to investigate the expression of nicotinic receptors and their involvement in the regulation of ion transport across
