TLR2 and TLR4 Modulate Mouse Ileal Motility by the Interaction with Muscarinic and Nicotinic Receptors

Cells, 2022
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a chronic functional bowel disorder characterized by intestinal dysmotility. Changes in intestinal microbiota (dysbiosis) can lead to alterations in neuro-muscular functions in the gut. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) 2 and 4

Dualsteric modulators of the M2 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor [PDF]

Journal of Cheminformatics, 2014
G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) trigger multiple signal-switching mechanisms like binding of s-arrestin proteins, activation of kinases and G-protein activation [1]. The poor understanding of the conformational changes resulting in these activations is a major challenge for the design of specific GPCR modulating drugs.

Recovery of hippocampal functions and modulation of muscarinic response by electroacupuncture in young diabetic rats [PDF]

, 2017
The muscarinic receptor response to acetylcholine regulates the hippocampal-related learning, memory, neural plasticity and the production and processing of the pro-nerve growth factor (proNGF) by hippocampal cells.

Position of anticholinergic drugs in the treatment of childhood asthma [PDF]

Srpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2010
Anticholinergic drugs block muscarinic effect of acetylcholine on the receptors of postjunctional membranes and so inhibit the answer of the postganglionic parasympathetic nerve.

An in vivo biosensor for neurotransmitter release and in situ receptor activity. [PDF]

, 2010
Tools from molecular biology, combined with in vivo optical imaging techniques, provide new mechanisms for noninvasively observing brain processes. Current approaches primarily probe cell-based variables, such as cytosolic calcium or membrane potential ...

Interkingdom Interactions in the Gut: Ecological Mechanisms, Homeostasis, and Therapeutic Modulation

Gut Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The gut microbiota constitutes a highly complex and dynamic ecosystem that profoundly influences host physiology, metabolism, and immunity. This review provides an integrative overview of the mechanisms through which gut microorganisms—particularly bacteria and fungi—interact with host cells and with each other to maintain intestinal ...

Pronounced pharmacologic deficits in M2 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor knockout mice [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999
Members of the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor family (M1–M5) are known to be involved in a great number of important central and peripheral physiological and pathophysiological processes. Because of the overlapping expression patterns of the M1–M5 muscarinic receptor subtypes and the lack of ligands endowed with sufficient subtype selectivity ...

Deconvolution of complex G protein-coupled receptor signaling in live cells using dynamic mass redistribution measurements [PDF]

, 2010
Label-free biosensor technology based on dynamic mass redistribution (DMR) of cellular constituents promises to translate GPCR signaling into complex optical 'fingerprints' in real time in living cells.
