Heterogenous Cholinergic Nicotinic Receptors in the CNS

, 1988
Multiple nicotinic binding sites are found in mammalian brain. Several nicotinic agonists and antagonists have been used to characterize the nicotinic binding sites.

Learning and nicotine interact to increase CREB phosphorylation at the jnk1 promoter in the hippocampus [PDF]

, 2012
Nicotine is known to enhance long-term hippocampus dependent learning and memory in both rodents and humans via its activity at nicotinic acetylcholinergic receptors (nAChRs).

Basic and Clinical Aspects of Non-neuronal Acetylcholine: Overview of Non-neuronal Cholinergic Systems and Their Biological

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2008
Acetylcholine (ACh) is a phylogenetically ancient molecule involved in cell-to-cell signaling in almost all life-forms on earth. Cholinergic components, including ACh, choline acetyltransferase, acetylcholinesterase, and muscarinic and nicotinic ACh ...

Single-channel behavior of heteromeric α1β glycine receptors: an attempt to detect a conformational change before the channel opens [PDF]

, 2004
The α1β heteromeric receptors are likely to be the predominant synaptic form of glycine receptors in the adult. Their activation mechanism was investigated by fitting putative mechanisms to single-channel recordings obtained at four glycine ...

Topographical Studies of the Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor [PDF]

, 1987
All four subunits of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor in membrane vesicles isolated from Torpedo californica have been labeled with the photoactivated hydrophobic probe, [3H]adamantanediazirine, which selectively labels regions of integral membrane ...

Effects of bioinsecticide exposure route on aphids and their natural enemies in oilseed rape

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Fatty acids, silicone polymers and surfactants reduced aphid numbers but caused natural enemy mortality under direct exposure, while minimal residual activity suggests potential for targeted, compatible use in integrated pest management. Abstract BACKGROUND Myzus persicae Sulzer and Brevicoryne brassicae L.
