Nicotine-Induced Effects on Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors (nAChRs), Ca2+ and Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) in STC-1 Cells [PDF]

, 2016
In addition to the T2R bitter taste receptors, neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) have recently been shown to be involved in the bitter taste transduction of nicotine, acetylcholine and ethanol.

NSAIDS AS MODULATORS OF CATION CHANNELS: FENAMATES REPURPOSING IN CHANNELOPATHIES

ChemMedChem, Accepted Article.
Cationic ion channels are transmembrane proteins that regulate the flux of cations (potassium, sodium, and calcium) across cell membrane, playing a pivotal role in many cellular functions. Disruptions of their activity can lead to the so‐called genetic or acquired channelopathies, a heterogeneous group of diseases that affect multiple human systems ...

Evaluation of Potential Effects of CYP3A Inhibition and CYP3A Induction on the Pharmacokinetics of Fruquintinib in Healthy Subjects

Clinical Pharmacology in Drug Development, EarlyView.
Abstract Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A plays a significant role in fruquintinib metabolism in vitro. This 2‐part, 2‐period fixed‐sequence study investigated the impact of CYP3A inhibition (itraconazole) and CYP3A induction (rifampin) on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of fruquintinib and M11, its main metabolite.

Neurotransmitter regulation of neural development: acetylcholine and nicotinic receptors

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2002
Several neurotransmitter systems have been related to developmental processes during the past decade. In this review, we discuss the evidence that the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors could have an additional function during development that may be ...

Effects of nicotine administration on amyloid precursor protein metabolism, neural cell genesis and acquisition of spatial memory [PDF]

, 2011
Nicotine is reported to improve learning and memory in experimental animals. Improved learning and memory has also been related to increased neural cell genesis in the dentate gyrus of the brain hippocampal formation.

A novel α-conotoxin, PeIA, cloned from Conus pergrandis, discriminates between Rat α9α10 and α7 nicotinic cholinergic receptors [PDF]

, 2005
The α9 and α10 nicotinic cholinergic subunits assemble to form the receptor believed to mediate synaptic transmission between efferent olivocochlear fibers and hair cells of the cochlea, one of the few examples of postsynaptic function for a non-muscle ...

Metabolic abnormalities and reprogramming in cats with naturally occurring hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1256-1270, April 2025.
Abstract Background and aims The heart is a metabolic organ rich in mitochondria. The failing heart reprograms to utilize different energy substrates, which increase its oxygen consumption. These adaptive changes contribute to increased oxidative stress.

Evolution of vertebrate nicotinic acetylcholine receptors

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019
Background Many physiological processes are influenced by nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR), ranging from neuromuscular and parasympathetic signaling to modulation of the reward system and long-term memory.
