Postsynaptic Complexin Mediates Constitutive Exocytosis of Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Beyond its established presynaptic role, complexin is identified as a postsynaptic regulator of neurotransmitter receptor trafficking. By promoting constitutive and activity‐dependent exocytosis of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, complexin controls spontaneous synaptic signaling at the C.

Cloning and characterization of the hamster and guinea pig nicotinic acid receptors
Journal of Lipid Research, 2007 In this study, we present the identification and characterization of hamster and guinea pig nicotinic acid receptors. The hamster receptor shares ∼80–90% identity with the nucleotide and amino acid sequences of human, mouse, and rat receptors. The guinea

Chronic Nicotine Selectively Enhances α4β2* Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors in the Nigrostriatal Dopamine Pathway [PDF]
, 2009 These electrophysiological experiments, in slices and intact animals, study the effects of in vivo chronic exposure to nicotine on functional α4β2* nAChRs in the nigrostriatal dopaminergic (DA) pathway.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.An activity‐dependent pathway links prefrontal circuit hypoactivity to cognitive impairment. Reduced PVA–mPFC activity upregulates NEPAS, which suppresses PTX3 secretion, leading to impaired angiogenesis, myelin deficits, and memory decline. Rescue is achieved by NEPAS knockdown or chemogenetic circuit activation.

International Journal for Parasitology: Drugs and Drug Resistance, 2020 Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors are an important class of excitatory receptors in the central nervous system of arthropods. In the ticks Ixodes ricinus, the functional and pharmacological properties of nicotinic receptors located in their neurons are ...

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sustainable hydrogen generation through water splitting is key to realizing a future hydrogen economy. In this study, we achieved molecular‐level control over self‐assembled supramolecular complexes of cyanuric acid and 3‐amino 1,2,4 triazole (AT) monomers. This was coupled with molten‐salt‐assisted thermal polymerization in a eutectic mixture

The plasma free fatty acid rebound induced by nicotinic acid
Journal of Lipid Research, 1967 The time course of the nicotinic acid-induced changes in levels of plasma free fatty acids (FFA) was examined. The plasma FFA response of fasted dogs to graded doses of nicotinic acid was shown to be biphasic: an initial depression of the level of plasma
