Differential presynaptic and postsynaptic expression of m1-m4 muscarinic
acetylcholine receptors at the perforant pathway/granule cell synapse.
The muscarinic
acetylcholine receptors are drug targets for neurodegenerative diseases.

Nicotinic
Acetylcholine Receptors. As GABAA receptors, nicotinic ACh receptors (nAChRs) belong to the "Cysloop" superfamily of LICs.
Cellular signaling mechanisms for muscarinic
acetylcholine receptors. Receptors Channels.
However, the fact that atropine, an antagonist of muscarinic
acetylcholine receptors (18), did not modify the direct vasorelaxation produced by clobenzorex on rat aortic segments excludes the possible involvement of stimulation of muscarinic
acetylcholine receptors in the vasodilator responses produced by this appetite suppressant drug.
They bind to
acetylcholine receptors at the motor end plate thus affecting neurotransmission (Warell, 1998) and producing nervous clinical signs.
We provide evidence that the effect of CCL3 is mediated via CCR1 and calcium-independent phospholipase A2 (iPLA2), release of a soluble small mediator and nicotinic
acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) containing subunits a7 and a9.
The sequences of primers were used in the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using synthetic primers specific to choline acetyltransferase (ChAT), acetylcholine esterase (AChE), muscarinic
acetylcholine receptors (Mj mAChR and [M.sub.2] mAChR), and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) as follows:
Nicotinic
acetylcholine receptors are pentameric, ligand-gated ion channels expressed in the central and peripheral nervous systems as well as at the neuromuscular junction, implicated in acetylcholine signaling [7, 8].
