Perinatal Exposure to the Neonicotinoid Thiacloprid Impacts Transcription of Neuroplasticity and Neuroendocrine Markers in Mice but Not in the Zebrafish Model

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neonicotinoids are widely used insecticides in agriculture, aquaculture, pet care, and urban pest control. Initially developed to selectively target the insect cholinergic system, their extensive use has raised concerns about adverse effects on nontarget vertebrates.

Muscarinic Receptors and Their Antagonists in COPD: Anti-Inflammatory and Antiremodeling Effects

Mediators of Inflammation, 2012
Muscarinic receptors are expressed by most cell types and mediate cellular signaling of their natural ligand acetylcholine. Thereby, they control numerous central and peripheral physiological organ responses to neuronal activity.

Effectiveness and Safety of Dupilumab Monotherapy in Japanese Patients With Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
In this phase 4, open‐label, single‐arm, multicenter study, dupilumab monotherapy was associated with reductions from baseline to week 24 (primary endpoint) in the bilateral endoscopic Nasal Polyp Score (NPS) in 25 Japanese adults with inadequately controlled chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps on standard care therapies.

Muscarinic receptor signaling in the pathophysiology of asthma and COPD

Respiratory Research, 2006
Anticholinergics are widely used for the treatment of COPD, and to a lesser extent for asthma. Primarily used as bronchodilators, they reverse the action of vagally derived acetylcholine on airway smooth muscle contraction.

Elevated Hippocampal Cholinergic Neurostimulating Peptide precursor protein (HCNP-pp) mRNA in the amygdala in major depression [PDF]

, 2015
The amygdala is innervated by the cholinergic system and is involved in major depressive disorder (MDD). Evidence suggests a hyper-activate cholinergic system in MDD.

Intratumoral Nerve Phased Development: A Promising Therapeutic Target

Medicine Bulletin, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The nervous system has emerged as a critical regulator of tumor biology, engaging in dynamic crosstalk with cancer cells. Although the protumorigenic role of innervation is well established, increasing attention is now directed toward reciprocal influences—how tumors actively shape and remodel local nerve networks within the tumor ...

The Relationship between Muscarinic and Cannabinoid Receptors in Neuronal Excitability and Epilepsy: A Review

Medical Cannabis and Cannabinoids
Background: Of the seventy million people who suffer from epilepsy, 40 percent of them become resistant to more than one antiepileptic medication and have a higher chance of death.

Efficacy and Safety of IncobotulinumtoxinA for Treatment of Sialorrhea: A Multicenter, Phase 3 Study in Japan

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
This study demonstrated significant treatment efficacy and safety of incobotulinumtoxinA injection in Japanese patients with chronic sialorrhea caused by Parkinson's disease and other neurological conditions. Suppression of salivary secretion and improvement in drooling symptoms were also observed throughout 48 weeks.

The involvement of cholinergic neurons in the spreading of tau pathology

Frontiers in Neurology, 2013
Long time ago, it was described the selective loss of cholinergic neurons during the development of Alzheimer disease. Recently, it has been suggested that tau protein may play a role in that loss of cholinergic neurons through a mechanism involving the ...

Levodopa Disrupts Activity Patterns and Encoding of Movement in Striatal Cholinergic Interneurons of Behaving Mice

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Levodopa treatment, the gold standard therapy for Parkinson's disease, can lead to levodopa‐induced dyskinesias (LIDs). Recent studies in acute brain slices have implicated the neural dynamics of striatal cholinergic interneurons (CINs) in the pathophysiology of LID, reporting that their discharge becomes more bursty in dyskinetic ...
