Undifferentiated and differentiated PC12 cells protected by huprines against injury induced by hydrogen peroxide. [PDF]
Oxidative stress is implicated in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) plays a central role in the stress. Huprines, a group of potent acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AChEIs), have shown a broad cholinergic ...

This study shows that (a) the slopes of dose-response curves of bromoacetylcholine (BrACh) and acetylcoline (ACh) were the same; (b) the dose-response curves of BrACh to contract superfused chick biventer cervicis and frog rectus abdominis muscles were shifted to the right by d-tubocurarine in a parallel fashio; and (c) the responses of BrACh were not ...

The role of spinal adrenergic receptors on the antinociception of ginsenosides in a rat postoperative pain model [PDF]
BackgroundThe effect of spinal adrenergic and cholinergic receptors on the anti-nociceptive effect of intrathecal ginsenosides was determined in a rat postoperative pain model.MethodsCatheters were placed into the intrathecal space of male Sprague-Dawley

The central cholinergic system as a therapeutic target in Parkinson's disease
The central cholinergic system plays a crucial role in neural communication and physiological regulation, mediated by acetylcholine (ACh) and cholinergic receptors in the central nervous system (CNS). In this review, we explore the extensive distribution

The striatum is the most prominent nucleus in the basal ganglia and plays an important role in motor movement regulation. The cholinergic interneurons (ChIs) in striatum are involved in the motion regulation by releasing acetylcholine (ACh) and ...

Muscarinic cholinergic receptors in rabbit retina
Abstract Binding sites with high affinity and specificity for [3 H]-quinuclidinyl benzilate are present in rabbit retinal homogenates. Only one set of binding sites was detected with an apparent dissociation constant of 2.13 times 10−10 M and a density of 59.2 fmol mg−1 of protein.

The olfactory bulb (OB) receives significant cholinergic innervation and widely expresses cholinergic receptors. While acetylcholine (ACh) is essential for olfactory learning, the exact mechanisms by which ACh modulates olfactory learning and whether it ...

Cholinergic receptors in aging and Alzheimer's disease
Although Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a disorder involving multiple neurotransmitter systems, the basal forebrain cholinergic system (Ch system) is severely and consistently affected in this condition. In both animals and man, the nature of age-associated alterations in the Ch system is unclear. In addition, available studies of cholinergic receptors in
