Nicotinic receptors [PDF]

The Receptors, 2014
Regulation of normal or abnormal behaviour is critically controlled by the central serotonergic systems. Recent evidence has suggested that serotonin (5-HT) neurotransmission dysfunction contributes to a variety of pathological conditions, including ...

Interactions between the rabies virus and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors: A potential role in rabies virus induced behavior modifications [PDF]

Heliyon, 2022
Rabies causes approximately 60,000 casualties annually and has a case fatality rate approaching 100% once clinical signs occur. The glycoprotein on the surface of the virion is important for the host immune response and facilitates interaction of the ...

Hydroxycarboxylic acid receptors in GtoPdb v.2023.1 [PDF]

, 2023
The hydroxycarboxylic acid family of receptors (ENSFM00500000271913, nomenclature as agreed by the NC-IUPHAR Subcommittee on Hydroxycarboxylic acid receptors [36, 12]) respond to organic acids, including the endogenous hydroxy carboxylic acids 3-hydroxy ...

Erythrina mulungu alkaloids are potent inhibitors of neuronal nicotinic receptor currents in mammalian cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Crude extracts and three isolated alkaloids from Erythrina mulungu plants have shown anxiolytic effects in different animal models. We investigated whether these alkaloids could affect nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and if they are selective for ...

The Anti-Aggregative Peptide KLVFF Mimics Aβ1-40 in the Modulation of Nicotinic Receptors: Implications for Peptide-Based Therapy

Biomedicines, 2022
In recent years, the inhibition of beta-amyloid (Aβ) aggregation has emerged as a potential strategy for Alzheimer’s disease. KLVFF, a small peptide corresponding to the aminoacidic sequence 16-20 of Aβ, reduces Aβ fibrillation dose dependently ...

Mechanosensitivity of nicotinic receptors [PDF]

Pflügers Archiv - European Journal of Physiology, 2012
Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are heteropentameric ligand-gated ion channels that mediate excitatory neurotransmission at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) and other peripheral and central synapses. At the NMJ, acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) are constantly exposed to mechanical stress resulting from muscle contraction.

Nicotinic Receptors in Neurodegeneration [PDF]

Current Neuropharmacology, 2013
Many studies have focused on expanding our knowledge of the structure and diversity of peripheral and central nicotinic receptors. Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are members of the Cys-loop superfamily of pentameric ligand-gated ion channels, which include GABA (A and C), serotonin, and glycine receptors.

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors [PDF]

British Journal of Pharmacology, 2018
This themed section of the British Journal of Pharmacology is the product of a conference that focussed on nicotinic ACh receptors (nAChRs) that was held on the Greek island of Crete from 7 to 11 May 2017. ‘Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors 2017’ was the fourth in a series of triennial international meetings that have provided a regular forum for ...

Bispyridinium Compounds Inhibit Both Muscle and Neuronal Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors in Human Cell Lines. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Standard treatment of poisoning by organophosphorus anticholinesterases uses atropine to reduce the muscarinic effects of acetylcholine accumulation and oximes to reactivate acetylcholinesterase (the effectiveness of which depends on the specific ...
