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-

Involvement of muscarinic receptors in psychomotor hyperactivity in dopamine-deficient mice
Molecular Brain, 2022 Dopamine-deficient (DD) mice exhibit psychomotor hyperactivity that might be related to a decrease in muscarinic signaling. In the present study, muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M2 (CHRM2) density decreased in the cortex in DD mice. This is significant

Trafficking of M2 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptors [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1999 Internalization is an important mechanism regulating the agonist-dependent responses of G-protein-coupled receptors. The internalization of the M(2) muscarinic cholinergic receptors (mAChR) in HEK293 cells has been demonstrated to occur by an unknown mechanism that is independent of arrestins and dynamin.

, 2023 Glioblastoma is a malignant human brain tumor of the astrocytic type. The activation of M2 muscarinic receptor (a G protein-coupled receptor, GPCR) by orthosteric agonist Arecaidine Propargyl Ester (APE) and dualsteric agonist N-8-Iper (N8) caused a ...

Muscarinic M2 acetylcholine receptor distribution in the guinea-pig gastrointestinal tract [PDF]
, 2006 In the enteric nervous system, acetylcholine is the most common neurotransmitter to induce gastrointestinal smooth muscle contractions. Cholinergic signaling is mediated by muscarinic acetylcholine receptors on the surface of smooth muscle cells.
