The effect of sodium channel activators on muscarinic receptors of neuroblastoma cells [PDF]
Incubation of neuroblastoma N1E 115 cells with veratrine leads to an apparent reduction in the number of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors assayed by [3H]scopolamine methyl chloride binding.

An update on the efficacy and safety of aclidinium bromide in patients with COPD
Aclidinium is a potent and selective muscarinic antagonist, which interacts rapidly with muscarinic receptors and shows subnanomolar affinity for the five human muscarinic receptors (M 1 –M 5 ); its association rate for the M 3 receptor is similar to ...

M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor facilitates the endocytosis of mu opioid receptor mediated by morphine independently of the formation of heteromeric complexes [PDF]
Morphine inefficiency to induce the internalization of mu opioid (MOP) receptors observed in numerous experimental models constitutes a paradigm of G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) functional selectivity.

Deciphering the skeletal interoceptive circuitry to control bone homeostasis
This review introduces the skeletal interoceptive circuitry, covering the ascending signals from bone tissues to the brain (sensors), the central neural circuits that integrate this information and dispatch commands (CPU), and the descending pathways that regulate bone homeostasis (effectors).

DREADD Agonist 21 Is an Effective Agonist for Muscarinic-Based DREADDs in Vitro and in Vivo
Chemogenetic tools such as designer receptors exclusively activated by designer drugs (DREADDs) are routinely used to modulate neuronal and non-neuronal signaling and activity in a relatively noninvasive manner.

The actions of Pasteurella multocida toxin on neuronal cells [PDF]
Pasteurella multocida toxin (PMT) activates the G-proteins Gα, Gα, Gα Gα and Gα by deamidation of specific glutamine residues. A number of these alpha subunits have signalling roles in neurones.

Periodontitis presenting among betel quid users: A case series
Abstract Background Betel leaf chewing habit has been studied extensively, as it has been an ancient practice in many Asian countries. Although betel leaf has been reported to have potential beneficial properties, it has also been shown to have a strong association with oral diseases, including periodontitis. This case series addresses the presentation
