Muscarinic M2‐receptors enhance polyphosphoinositol release in rat gastric mucosal cells
Muscarinic receptor types and their effects on the inositol phosphate second messenger system were studied in enzymatically dispersed rat gastric mucosal cells. Radioreeeptor binding studies indicated the presence of a single class of binding sites (4860 ± 875 ) and affinities of 0.42 ± 0.12 nM, 176 ± 32 nM and 13 μM for N‐methylscopolamine ...

The coupling of the M2 muscarinic receptor to its G protein is voltage dependent.
G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) participate in the majority of signal transduction processes in the body. Specifically, the binding of an external agonist promotes coupling of the GPCR to its G protein and this, in turn, induces downstream signaling.

Quantitative surface field analysis: learning causal models to predict ligand binding affinity and pose. [PDF]
We introduce the QuanSA method for inducing physically meaningful field-based models of ligand binding pockets based on structure-activity data alone. The method is closely related to the QMOD approach, substituting a learned scoring field for a pocket ...

D₂ Dopamine Receptors Colocalize Regulator of G-Protein Signaling 9-2 (RGS9-2) via the RGS9 DEP Domain, and RGS9 Knock-Out Mice Develop Dyskinesias Associated with Dopamine Pathways [PDF]
Regulator of G-protein signaling 9-2 (RGS9-2), a member of the RGS family of Gα GTPase accelerating proteins, is expressed specifically in the striatum, which participates in antipsychotic-induced tardive dyskinesia and in levodopa-induced dyskinesia. We

A Role for the Kolliker-Fuse Nucleus in Cholinergic Modulation of Breathing at Night During Wakefulness and NREM Sleep [PDF]
For many years, acetylcholine has been known to contribute to the control of breathing and sleep. To probe further the contributions of cholinergic rostral pontine systems in control of breathing, we designed this study to test the hypothesis that ...

Voltage dependence of M2 muscarinic receptor antagonists and allosteric modulators
Muscarinic receptors are G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) that play a role in various physiological functions. Previous studies have shown that these receptors, along with other GPCRs, are voltage-sensitive; both their affinity toward agonists and their activation are regulated by membrane potential.

Exploring functional motions of muscarinic acetylcholine M2 receptor
G-protein bağlı reseptörler (GPRs) en büyük sinyal protein ailesidir ve bu yüzden işleyiş mekanızmalarının altında yatan dinamik etkenlerin anlaşılması ilaç tasarımında büyük bir öneme sahiptir. Bu güne kadar yapılan pek çok çalışma olmasına rağmen, inaktif ve aktif yapılar arasında gerçekleşen kolektif konformasyonel değişimlerin özellikleri ve ...
