Muscarinic modulation of M and h currents in gerbil spherical bushy cells.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Descending cholinergic fibers innervate the cochlear nucleus. Spherical bushy cells, principal neurons of the anterior part of the ventral cochlear nucleus, are depolarized by cholinergic agonists on two different time scales.

Cross-diagnostic determinants of cognitive functioning: the muscarinic cholinergic receptor as a model system

open access: yesTranslational Psychiatry, 2023
Cognitive impairment is a predictor of disability across different neuropsychiatric conditions, and cognitive abilities are also strongly related to educational attainment and indices of life success in the general population.

Identification and Characterization of the Rat M1 Muscarinic Receptor Promoter [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurochemistry, 1999
Abstract : Five subtypes of the muscarinic receptor have been cloned from both the rat and human genomes. Although all five genes have the coding sequences in a single exon, their structures 5′ of the initiation codon are largely uncharacterized, except for the M4 receptor.

Interaction of the Xanthine Nucleotide Binding Goα Mutant with G Protein-coupled Receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
We constructed a double mutant version of the α subunit of Go that was regulated by xanthine nucleotides instead of guanine nucleotides (GoαX). We investigated the interaction between GoαX and G protein-coupled receptors in vitro.

The effects of kindling during pregnancy on long-term potentiation (LTP) induction and M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors in male rat offspring

open access: yesResearch in Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2023
Background and purpose: Neonates of pregnant women with epilepsy may compromise normal neurodevelopment and hippocampal morphology. Memory and learning disorders and a decrease in verbal IQ scores are seen in these children later in life. In the previous

Pertussis Toxin-sensitive Activation of Phospholipase C by the C5a and fMet-Leu-Phe Receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Signal transduction pathways that mediate C5a and fMet-Leu-Phe (fMLP)-induced pertussis toxin (PTx)-sensitive activation of phospholipase C (PLC) have been investigated using a cotransfection assay system in COS-7 cells.

Cholinergic Regulation of Orexin/Hypocretin Neurons Through M3Muscarinic Receptor in Mice

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2008
The cholinergic system plays an important role in regulation of arousal and REM sleep. In the present study, we showed that a muscarinic receptor agonist, carbachol (CCh), activates almost 20% of orexin-producing neurons (orexin neurons), which play a ...

Voltage Dependence of Muscarinic M1-,M3- and M5 Receptors [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2014
Muscarinic receptors (MR) are G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Localized to the plasma membrane, they sense changes of the membrane potential and exhibit voltage-dependent signaling. Because voltage activates Gq-coupled receptors (e.g. M1R) but deactivates Gi-coupled receptors (e.g.

A molecular basis for selective antagonist destabilization of dopamine D3 receptor quaternary organization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The dopamine D3 receptor (D3R) is a molecular target for both first-generation and several recently-developed antipsychotic agents. Following stable expression of this mEGFP-tagged receptor, Spatial Intensity Distribution Analysis indicated that a ...

Coincidence Signaling of Dopamine D1-Like and M1 Muscarinic Receptors in the Regulation of Cyclic AMP Formation and CREB Phosphorylation in Mouse Prefrontal Cortex

open access: yesNeurosignals, 2012
In the prefrontal cortex, dopamine D1-like and M1 muscarinic receptors are both involved in the regulation of attentional, cognitive and emotional processes but so far no information has been provided on their functional interaction. In the present study
