Neurotransmitter‐Defined Degeneration Patterns in Sporadic and C9orf72‐Associated Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: Predilection to GABAergic, Serotonergic, Opioid, Glutamatergic, Endocannabinoid, and Microglial Systems—Implications for Therapy Development

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) has a markedly distinctive clinical and neuroradiological signature, with the preferential involvement of specific brain networks and the apparent sparing of others. The molecular underpinnings of the strikingly selective anatomical vulnerability have not been fully elucidated to date despite the potential ...

Acetylcholine receptors (muscarinic) in GtoPdb v.2021.2 [PDF]

, 2021
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) (nomenclature as agreed by the NC-IUPHAR Subcommittee on Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptors [50]) are activated by the endogenous agonist acetylcholine.

Assessment of Muscarinic Receptor Subtypes in Human and Rat Lower Urinary Tract by Tissue Segment Binding Assay

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2008
Muscarinic receptors in the human and rat lower urinary tract (urinary bladder detrusor muscle and mucosa, and prostate) were identified by intact tissue segment binding assays with two radioligands, and the effects of prolonged receptor activation in ...

Radioligandbindungsstudien : Struktur-Wirkungs-Beziehungen von Antagonisten an muskarinischen, serotonergen und histaminergen Rezeptor-Subtypen [PDF]

, 2008
GPCRs and ligand-gated ion channels mediate a great variety of physiological effects within the human brain and periphery. The search for selective ligands at these target sites as pharmacological tools or new drug candidates is of great interest.

An update on the efficacy and safety of aclidinium bromide in patients with COPD

Therapeutic Advances in Respiratory Disease, 2011
Aclidinium is a potent and selective muscarinic antagonist, which interacts rapidly with muscarinic receptors and shows subnanomolar affinity for the five human muscarinic receptors (M 1 –M 5 ); its association rate for the M 3 receptor is similar to ...

Critical role of the cholinergic system for object-in-place associative recognition memory [PDF]

, 2009
Object-in-place memory, which relies on the formation of associations between an object and the place in which it was encountered, depends upon a neural circuit comprising the perirhinal (PRH) and medial prefrontal (mPFC) cortices.

Clock Genes Regulate Ca2+ Signaling and Mitochondrial Bioenergetics to Inhibit Sjögren Disease

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Although Ca2+ signaling and metabolism have been identified as key determinants for the development of Sjögren disease (SjD), the intricate connection between them and salivary gland physiology remains poorly understood. Methods Fluorescence‐based Ca2+ imaging, RNA sequencing, and mitochondrial activity were used to investigate the effects of

A Distinct Role of the Autonomic Nervous System in Modulating the Function of Lymphatic Vessels under Physiological and Tumor-Draining Conditions

Cell Reports, 2019
Summary: Lymphatic vessels (LVs) are important in the regulation of tissue fluid homeostasis and the pathogenesis of tumor progression. We investigated the innervation of LVs and the response to agonists and antagonists of the autonomic nervous system in
