M1 muscarinic receptor activation mediates cell death in M1-HEK293 cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
HEK293 cells have been used extensively to generate stable cell lines to study G protein-coupled receptors, such as muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs).

Flavonoids with M1 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor Binding Activity [PDF]

Molecules, 2014
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor-active compounds have potential for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. In this study, a series of natural and synthetic flavones and flavonols was assayed in vitro for their ability to inhibit radioligand binding at ...

Mechanisms of Pilocarpine‐Induced Nitric Oxide and Prostaglandin Production in Porcine Ciliary Muscle [PDF]

FASEB BioAdvances
Pilocarpine, a muscarinic receptor agonist, is clinically used to reduce intraocular pressure via ciliary muscle contraction. However, the intracellular signaling pathways mediating pilocarpine‐induced nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2 ...

Xanomeline/trospium-induced polyuria: A patient case report [PDF]

Mental Health Clinician
Xanomeline/trospium is a newly approved agent for the management of schizophrenia. Unlike traditional antipsychotics, which are D2 receptor antagonists, xanomeline is an M1/M4 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor agonist coformulated with trospium, a ...

M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor in Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]

Neuroscience Bulletin, 2014
The degeneration of cholinergic neurons and cholinergic hypofunction are pathologies associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) mediate acetylcholine-induced neurotransmission and five mAChR subtypes (M1-M5) have been identified.

Muscarinic M1 receptors stimulated by intracerebroventricular administration of McN-A-343 reduces the nerve injury-induced mechanical hypersensitivity via GABAB receptors rather than GABAA receptors in mice

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2020
Cholinergic neurons play an important role in the higher functions of the brain, such as the memory, cognition, and nociception. However, the exact mechanism behind how the stimulation of all the muscarinic M1 receptors in the entire brain results in the

Additive interaction of intrathecal ginsenosides and neostigmine in the rat formalin test [PDF]

Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2013
BackgroundThe authors evaluated the effect of intrathecal mixture of ginsenosides with neostigmine on formalin-induced nociception and made further clear the role of the spinal muscarinic (M) receptors on the activity of ginsenosides.MethodsA catheter ...

A growing understanding of the role of muscarinic receptors in the molecular pathology and treatment of schizophrenia

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2023
Pre-clinical models, postmortem and neuroimaging studies all support a role for muscarinic receptors in the molecular pathology of schizophrenia. From these data it was proposed that activation of the muscarinic M1 and/or M4 receptor would reduce the ...
