Molecular properties of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors
Proceedings of the Japan Academy. Series B, Physical and biological sciences, 2013 Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors, which comprise five subtypes (M1-M5 receptors), are expressed in both the CNS and PNS (particularly the target organs of parasympathetic neurons). M1-M5 receptors are integral membrane proteins with seven transmembrane

Inhibition of Subsets of G Protein-coupled Receptors by Empty Mutants of G Protein α Subunits in Go, G11, and G16 [PDF]
, 2000 We previously reported that the xanthine nucleotide binding Goα mutant, GoαX, inhibited the activation of Gi-coupled receptors. We constructed similar mutations in G11α and G16α and characterized their nucleotide binding and receptor interaction.

Regulation of Neuromodulator Receptor Efficacy - Implications for Whole-Neuron and Synaptic Plasticity [PDF]
Progress in Neurobiology 72(6), pp 399-415, April 2004, 2004 Membrane receptors for neuromodulators (NM) are highly regulated in their distribution and efficacy - a phenomenon which influences the individual cell's response to central signals of NM release. Even though NM receptor regulation is implicated in the pharmacological action of many drugs, and is also known to be influenced by various environmental ...

Widespread decreases in cortical muscarinic receptors in a subset of people with schizophrenia.
International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology, 2013 These studies were undertaken to investigate the selectivity of cortical muscarinic receptor radioligand binding in muscarinic M(1) and M(4) receptor knockout mice and to determine whether a marked decrease in [(3)H]pirenzepine binding in Brodmann's area

Multitargeting nature of muscarinic orthosteric agonists and antagonists
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Muscarinic receptors (mAChRs) are typical members of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family and exist in five subtypes from M1 to M5. Muscarinic receptor subtypes do not sufficiently differ in affinity to orthosteric antagonists or agonists ...

Antidepressant-like Effects of Neuropeptide SF (NPSF) [PDF]
World Journal of Research and Review (WJRR) ISSN:2455-3956,
Volume-4, Issue-5, May 2017 Pages 26-30, 2020 Neuropeptide SF (NPSF) is a member of RFamide neuropeptides that play diverse roles in central nervous system. Little is know about the effects of NPSF on brain functions. Antidepressant-like effect of NPSF was studied in modified mice FST. NPSF showed the antidepressant-like effects by decreasing the immobility time and increasing the climbing and ...

Advanced Synthesis &Catalysis, EarlyView.A copper‐catalyzed decarboxylative alkynylation of tropanes is developed. This approach works under mild conditions and selectively produces a range of 3‐β‐alkynylated tropanes. Moreover, it provides a versatile and convergent platform for further functionalization of the triple bond.

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 ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Sympathetic nerve innervation promotes the progression of Epstein‐Barr virus‐positive diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (EBV+ DLBCL) via β2‐adrenergic receptors. The discovery of enhanced nerve infiltration and β2AR expression reveals a novel mechanism and highlights the sympathetic–β2AR axis as a promising target for therapeutic intervention in EBV+ DLBCL.
