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

Non-Neuronal Functions of the M2 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor [PDF]
Genes, 2013 Acetylcholine is an important neurotransmitter whose effects are mediated by two classes of receptors. The nicotinic acetylcholine receptors are ion channels, whereas the muscarinic receptors belong to the large family of G protein coupled seven transmembrane helix receptors.

Modulation of the M2 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor Activity with Monoclonal Anti-M2 Receptor Antibody Fragments [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2004 Antibodies directed against the second extracellular loop of G protein-coupled receptors are known to have functional activities. From a partial agonist monoclonal antibody directed against the M2 muscarinic receptor, we constructed and produced a single chain variable fragment with high affinity for its target epitope.

Distribution of Muscarinic Acethylcholine Receptors and Related Signal [PDF]
Türk Biyokimya Dergisi, 2006 Muscarinic receptors are members of G protein coupled receptor family. Molecularcloning studies indicate five intronless genes that encode five muscarinic receptorglycoproteins.

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2008 The present study was undertaken to clarify how spinal muscarinic receptors are involved in the antinociceptive effects in thermal stimulation. Intrathecal (i.t.) injection of the muscarinic agonist McN-A-343 inhibited the tail-flick response to noxious ...

Allosteric modulation in monomers and oligomers of a G protein-coupled receptor
eLife, 2016 The M2 muscarinic receptor is the prototypic model of allostery in GPCRs, yet the molecular and the supramolecular determinants of such effects are unknown.

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 ...

Synthesis of New Cardioselective M2 Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists.
Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2000 A series of 5H-dibenz[b,f]azepine derivatives was prepared and evaluated for binding affinities to muscarinic receptors in vitro. Among them, compound 8 showed a high affinity for human recombinant M2 receptors (Ki=2.6 nm), a low affinity for M4 receptors (39-fold less than for M2 receptors) and a very low affinity for M1 and M3 receptors (119- and 112-
