Structural Basis of M3 Muscarinic Receptor Dimer/Oligomer Formation [PDF]
Class A G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are known to form dimers and/or oligomeric arrays in vitro and in vivo. These complexes are thought to play important roles in modulating class A GPCR function. Many studies suggest that residues located on the "outer" (lipid-facing) surface of the transmembrane (TM) receptor core are critically involved in ...

Novel Insights into M3 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor Physiology and Structure [PDF]
Recent studies with M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (M3R) mutant mice suggest that drugs selectively targeting this receptor subtype may prove useful for the treatment of various pathophysiological conditions. Moreover, the use of M3R-based designer G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) has provided novel insights into how Gq-coupled GPCRs can ...

Degeneration of the cholinergic system is considered to be the underlying pathology that results in the cognitive deficit in Alzheimer's disease. This pathology is thought to be linked to a loss of signaling through the cholinergic M1-muscarinic receptor

Antagonist binding profile of the split chimeric muscarinic m2-trunc/m3-tail receptor
Recent evidence suggests that G-protein-coupled receptors can behave as multiple subunit receptors, and can be split into parts, maintaining their binding ability.

Physiological functions of muscarinic receptor M3 [PDF]
Muscarinic receptors belong to the family of G-protein coupled receptors. G-proteins are heterotrimeric GTP-binding proteins that transfer signals from receptors to effectors. Effectors change levels of second messengers in the cell.

Summary An uncommon complication following prosthetic laryngoplasty was reported in a 4‐year‐old Andalusian mare. The mare was presented with a previously diagnosed left‐sided recurrent laryngeal neuropathy, after initial evaluation the mare underwent ventriculocordectomy and prosthetic laryngoplasty.

Don't Sweat It: Cannabinoid CB1 Receptors Reduce Sweating in a Mouse Model
A new galvanic skin response‐based approach offers a simple method for measuring sweating in the paws of mice. This method is used to demonstrate that cannabinoid CB1 receptors reduce baseline sweating in mice, likely via inhibition of sympathetic acetylcholine release via axonal CB1 receptors.

Effect of the ligand in the Modeling the 3d structure of the m3 muscarinic receptor [PDF]
There are still many question open to completely understand the structure-activity relationships of G-protein coupled receptors. Issues like the actual mapping of the binding site of different subtypes, as well as the mechanism of activation are poorly ...

Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a multifactorial neurodegenerative disorder driven by intersecting pathological processes. Persistent attrition in AD drug‐development pipelines highlights the limited clinical impact of single‐target therapies and has increased interest in multi‐target approaches acting on shared biological hubs.
