Receptor for activated C kinase-1 facilitates protein kinase C-dependent phosphorylation and functional modulation of GABA(A) receptors with the activation of G-protein-coupled receptors [PDF]
, 2002 GABA(A) receptors are the principal sites of fast synaptic inhibition in the brain. These receptors are hetero-pentamers that can be assembled from a number of subunit classes: alpha(1-6), beta(1-3), gamma(1-3), delta(1), epsilon, theta, and pi, but the ...

M 1and M 3 muscarinic receptors mediate relaxation and contraction in canine nasal veins
, 2011 Background: Acetylcholine (ACh) has been shown to induce nasal congestion via vasorelaxation of intranasal posterior collecting veins (PCV) coupled with vasocontraction of extranasal outflow veins (dorsal nasal vein [DNV] and sphenopalatine vein [SPV ...

Modulation of pilocarpine-induced seizures by cannabinoid receptor 1. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Administration of the muscarinic agonist pilocarpine is commonly used to induce seizures in rodents for the study of epilepsy. Activation of muscarinic receptors has been previously shown to increase the production of endocannabinoids in the brain ...

Muscarinic and Nicotinic Contribution to Contrast Sensitivity of Macaque Area V1 Neurons
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2017 Acetylcholine is a neuromodulator that shapes information processing in different cortical and subcortical areas. Cell type and location specific cholinergic receptor distributions suggest that acetylcholine in macaque striate cortex should boost feed ...

Inhibition of sequestration of human B-2 bradykinin receptor by phenylarsine oxide or sucrose allows determination of a receptor affinity shift and ligand dissociation in intact cells [PDF]
, 2004 Depending on their interaction with intracellular proteins, G proteincoupled receptors (GPCR) often display different affinities for agonists at 37degreesC. Determining the affinity at that temperature is often difficult in intact cells as most GPCRs are
