Altered muscarinic and nicotinic receptor densities in cortical and subcortical brain regions in Parkinson's disease [PDF]
, 1993 Muscarinic and nicotinic cholinergic receptors and choline acetyltransferase activity were studied in postmortem brain tissue from patients with histopathologically confirmed Parkinson's disease and matched control subjects.

Precision therapies for genetic epilepsies in 2025: Promises and pitfalls
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract By targeting the underlying etiology, precision therapies offer an exciting paradigm shift to improve the stagnant outcomes of drug‐resistant epilepsies, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Unlike conventional antiseizure medications (ASMs) which only treat the symptoms (seizures) but have no effect on the underlying ...

Cholinergic switch between two types of slow waves in cerebral cortex [PDF]
Cerebral Cortex 2019, 2018 Sleep slow waves are known to participate in memory consolidation, yet slow waves occurring under anesthesia present no positive effects on memory. Here, we shed light onto this paradox, based on a combination of extracellular recordings in vivo, in vitro, and computational models.

A physical model of nicotinic ACh receptor kinetics [PDF]
arXiv, 2008 We present a new approach to nicotinic receptor kinetics and a new model explaining random variabilities in the duration of open events. The model gives new interpretation on brief and long receptor openings and predicts (for two identical binding sites) the presence of three components in the open time distribution: two brief and a long.

Structure of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors
Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 1993 Nicotinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptors convert the binding of ACh into the opening of a cation-conducting channel. New information about the regions of the receptor most immediately involved in its function, namely the ACh-binding sites, the gate and the channel, has come from two approaches.
