The Cytoskeleton and Neurotransmitter Receptors
1996The neuronal cytoskeleton consists of microtubules and microfilaments that can interact with membrane proteins including neurotransmitter receptors and ion channels. Ligand-gated ion channels, such as nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, glycine receptors, glutamate receptors and gamma-aminobutryic acidA (GABAA) receptors, are known to cluster in plasma ...

Neurotransmitter Receptors and Aging
Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 1984The role of receptors in the central nervous system and effects of aging on the four neurotransmitter receptors most often studied in the context of aging—beta‐adrenergic, cholinergic, benzodiazepine, and dopamine—are discussed.

Neurotransmitters and Receptors
2022This chapter describes the molecular basis of neurotransmitters and opioid and non-opioid receptors involved in the transmission of noxious stimuli. It also covers the mechanism of action of treatments that are used in pain management.

Neurotransmitter Receptors And Phosphoinositide Turnover
Annual Review of Pharmacology and Toxicology, 1989Neurotransmitters, neuromodulators, hormones and growth-promoting fac tors are now known to exhibit their diverse metabolic and physiological responses by interaction with their selective receptors located on the cell surface. These surface receptors transduce and amplify extracellular signals by the generation of so-called second messengers.

Neurotransmitter receptors as targets for pesticides
Journal of Environmental Science and Health, Part B, 1983Nicotinic and muscarinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptors have been identified biochemically by means of their specific binding of [3H] alpha-bungarotoxin ([3H]alpha-BGT) and [3H]quinuclidinyl benzilate, respectively. There are some differences in the drug specificities, and sensitivities to active group reagents, of these receptors in insects when ...

Evolution of neurotransmitter receptor systems
Progress in Neurobiology, 1988The presence of hormones, neurotransmitters, their receptors and biosynthetic and degradative enzymes is clearly not only associated with the present and the recent past but with the past several hundred million years. Evidence is mounting which indicates substantial conservation of protein structure and function of these receptors and enzymes over ...

Neurotransmitters: Elusive glutamate receptors
Current Biology, 1994Kainate-preferring glutamate receptors appear to be abundant in the central nervous system. We have recently begun to understand their properties, but their functions remain to be described.

Cetirizine: Actions on neurotransmitter receptors
Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1990First-generation H1-antagonist antihistamines, such as hydroxyzine, have the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier and cause sedation, which limits their usefulness in the treatment of allergic disorders. Cetirizine, a carboxylated metabolite of hydroxyzine, possesses the parent compound's antihistaminic activity but causes less sedation.

Neurotransmitter receptor plasticity in aging
Life Sciences, 1994Neurotransmitter receptor plasticity is an important part of the compensatory processes by which the central nervous system adapts to pathological insult, long-term exposure to drugs or neuronal loss with advanced age. Receptor plasticity can be manifest as changes in the number of receptors (i.e., up- or down-regulation), changes in expression of mRNA
