Structurally similar allosteric modulators of α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors exhibit five distinct pharmacological effects. [PDF]
, 2015 Activation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) is associated with the binding of agonists such as acetylcholine to an extracellular site that is located at the interface between two adjacent receptor subunits.

The α9α10 acetylcholine receptor: A non-neuronal nicotinic receptor
Pharmacological Research, 2023 Within the superfamily of pentameric ligand-gated ion channels, cholinergic nicotinic receptors (nAChRs) were classically identified to mediate synaptic transmission in the nervous system and the neuromuscular junction. The α9 and α10 nAChR subunits were

A factor graph EM algorithm for inference of kinetic microstates from patch clamp measurements [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 We derive a factor graph EM (FGEM) algorithm, a technique that permits combined parameter estimation and statistical inference, to determine hidden kinetic microstates from patch clamp measurements. Using the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) and nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) as examples, we perform {\em Monte Carlo}

Distribution of α7 Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor Subunit mRNA in the Developing Mouse. [PDF]
, 2019 Homomeric α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are abundantly expressed in the central and peripheral nervous system (CNS and PNS, respectively), and spinal cord.

Regions of beta 2 and beta 4 responsible for differences between the steady state dose-response relationships of the alpha 3 beta 2 and alpha 3 beta 4 neuronal nicotinic receptors [PDF]
, 1995 We constructed chimeras of the rat beta 2 and beta 4 neuronal nicotinic subunits to locate the regions that contribute to differences between the acetylcholine (ACh) dose-response relationships of the alpha 3 beta 2 and alpha 3 beta 4 receptors ...

Interfacial Photoelectrochemistry in Organic Synthesis
Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Accepted Article.Photoelectrodes have traditionally enjoyed widespread attention as heterogeneous catalysts for the activation of water and CO2 in energy research, while photoelectrochemistry with homogeneous molecular catalysts dominates the activations of more complex molecules in organic synthesis.
