Activation of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors elicits pigment granule dispersion in retinal pigment epithelium isolated from bluegill

BMC Neuroscience, 2004
Background In fish, melanin pigment granules in the retinal pigment epithelium disperse into apical projections as part of the suite of responses the eye makes to bright light conditions.

Pharmacological and Mechanistic Interventions for Cognitive Impairment Associated With Schizophrenia: A Review of Registered Clinical Trials

Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Schizophrenia is characterized by positive, negative, and cognitive symptoms. Current pharmacological treatments often fail to address cognitive deficits. In this review of clinical trials, we aim to identify studies that explore neurobiological (non‐psychological) strategies to address Cognitive Impairment Associated with ...

Efficacy of ASA Therapy After Desensitization on CRSwNP Patients With Asthma and N‐ERD—A Randomized Clinical Trial

Allergy, EarlyView.
This randomized double‐blind clinical trial investigated the impact of aspirin therapy after desensitization in patients with CRSwNP, asthma, and N‐ERD. Various clinical outcomes were assessed, including health‐related quality of life (with the SNOT‐22 questionnaire) and the severity of nasal polyposis (with the NPS).

Allosteric Modulation of Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptors

Pharmaceuticals, 2010
An allosteric modulator is a ligand that binds to an allosteric site on the receptor and changes receptor conformation to produce increase (positive cooperativity) or decrease (negative cooperativity) in the binding or action of an orthosteric agonist (e.

Fungal‐Driven Airways Dis‐Immunity From Asthma to Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis: Dissecting Similarities and Differences

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Severe asthma and allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) do not rarely coexist and share several similarities in terms of pathobiological background, together with overlapping clinical manifestations, misleading the correct diagnosis. Within that scenario, severe asthma with fungal sensitization (SAFS) further complicates the correct ...

Cardiac muscarinic receptor overexpression in sudden infant death syndrome.

PLoS ONE, 2010
BackgroundSudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) remains the leading cause of death among infants less than 1 year of age. Disturbed expression of some neurotransmitters and their receptors has been shown in the central nervous system of SIDS victims but no

Natural History of Airway Hyperresponsiveness and Its Association With Asthma Traits

Allergy, EarlyView.
AHR improves in most children over adolescence when its relationship with asthma changes. AHR is better at ruling out asthma in children, while it is superior at ruling in asthma in young adults. Age should be considered when interpreting AHR, and different cutoffs might be required for children and adults.

Data regarding M1 muscarinic receptor-mediated modulation of hepatic catalase activity in response to oxidative stress

Data in Brief, 2016
We recently demonstrated the role of M1 muscarinic receptors (M1R) in modulating oxidative stress in liver and hepatocytes (Urrunaga et al., 2015) [1]. Here we provide data regarding the effect of a novel M1R agonist, VU0357017 (Lebois et al., 2010) [2],
