Two Types of Cation Channel Activated by Stimulation of Muscarinic Receptors in Guinea-Pig Urinary Bladder Smooth Muscle

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2008
The present study, aiming to elucidate ion channel mechanisms underlying muscarinic receptor–induced depolarization, has characterized membrane currents induced by carbachol in single guinea-pig urinary bladder myocytes. Application of carbachol to cells

Identification, expression and functional characterization of M4L, a muscarinic acetylcholine M4 receptor splice variant. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Rodent genomic alignment sequences support a 2-exon model for muscarinic M4 receptor. Using this model a novel N-terminal extension was discovered in the human muscarinic acetylcholine M4 receptor. An open reading frame was discovered in the human, mouse

When manual disimpaction isn't enough: Case report and review of neostigmine's role in refractory constipation management

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Severe refractory constipation can lead to fecal retention requiring hospitalization, nasogastric cleanout, or manual disimpaction, and in some cases, surgery. Neostigmine, a reversible acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, is commonly used for pseudo‐obstruction but rarely for refractory constipation. Here, we report a 21‐year‐old male with chronic

Relationship between membrane phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate and receptor-mediated inhibition of native neuronal M channels [PDF]

, 2005
The relationship between receptor-induced membrane phosphatidylinositol-4'5'-bisphosphate (PIP2) hydrolysis and M-current inhibition was assessed in single-dissociated rat sympathetic neurons by simultaneous or parallel recording of membrane current and ...

Mydriasis as a Secondary Effect in Patients With HLA‐B27–Associated Uveitis

Medicine Advances, EarlyView.
HLA‐B27‐associated acute anterior uveitis causes significant inflammation of the iris and anterior chamber, which disrupts normal parasympathetic control and results in increased sympathetic tone leading to pupil dilation (mydriasis). This finding can sometimes resemble herpetic uveitis, making a clinical context and careful evaluation crucial for ...

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

Advances 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 ...

Involvement of GABAB receptor in the antihypersensitive effect in anterior cingulate cortex of partial sciatic nerve ligation model

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2018
The role of the GABAB receptor in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) of neuropathic pain is unclear. Injection of a GABAB receptor antagonist CGP35348 into the ACC induced mechanical hypersensitivity in normal rats.
