Effects of Putative Neurotransmitters of the Carotid Body on its Own Glomus Cells.

The European journal of neuroscience

Eyzaguirre C, Monti-Bloch L, Woodbury JW.
PMID: 12106105
Eur J Neurosci. 1990 Jan;2(1):77-88. doi: 10.1111/j.1460-9568.1990.tb00383.x.

Carotid body glomus cells produce and release acetylcholine (ACh), catecholamines, and neuropeptides, and there is biochemical evidence that these cells possess receptors for these substances. Thus, we studied the effects of cholinergics [ACh, nicotine (Nic), bethanechol (BN)] and peptides...

Deletion of P2X2 and P2X3 receptor subunits does not alter motility of the mouse colon.

Frontiers in neuroscience

Devries MP, Vessalo M, Galligan JJ.

Front Neurosci. 2010 Mar 19;4:22. doi: 10.3389/fnent.2010.00001. eCollection 2010.

Purinergic P2X receptors contribute to neurotransmission in the gut. P2X receptors are ligand-gated cation channels that mediate synaptic excitation in subsets of enteric neurons. The present study evaluated colonic motility in vitro and in vivo in wild type (WT)...

The balance of sympathetic and parasympathetic tone provides exquisite control of heart rate and contractility and has also been shown to modulate coronary flow and inflammation. Understanding how autonomic balance is altered by cardiac disease is an active area...

Bethanechol used to prevent salivary gland dysfunction in patients submitted to radioactive iodine therapy: a double blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study.

Journal of stomatology, oral and maxillofacial surgery

Campanhã D, Pereira EN, Alves FA, Jaguar GC.

Symptoms related to salivary gland damage are one of the most frustrating complications after radioactive iodine (

Acetylcholine Receptor Agonists Provide Cardioprotection in Doxorubicin-induced Cardiotoxicity via Modulating Muscarinic M.

Translational research : the journal of laboratory and clinical medicine

Prathumsap N, Ongnok B, Khuanjing T, Arinno A, Maneechote C, Apaijai N, Chunchai T, Arunsak B, Shinlapawittayatorn K, Chattipakorn SC, Chattipakorn N.

Transl Res. 2021 Dec 14; doi: 10.1016/j.trsl.2021.12.005. Epub 2021 Dec 14.

The balance between cardiac sympathetic and parasympathetic activities has been intricately linked to mitochondrial function, cellular oxidative status, and immunomodulation in healthy and diseased myocardium. Cardiac autonomic neuropathy, along with the associated mitochondrial and cellular dysfunction, is an important...

Gastric motor dysfunction coincides with the onset of obesity in rats fed with high-fat diet.

Clinical and experimental pharmacology & physiology

Kaya SD, Sinen O, Bülbül M.
PMID: 33352619
Clin Exp Pharmacol Physiol. 2021 Apr;48(4):553-562. doi: 10.1111/1440-1681.13448. Epub 2020 Dec 22.

Exposure to a high-fat diet (HFD) has been reported to impair central autonomic and enteric neurocircuitries, however, the relevant mechanisms and their time course are inadequately clarified. This study aimed to investigate the effects of HFD consumption through the...

Enhanced Contractive Tension and Upregulated Muscarinic Receptor 2/3 in Colorectum Contribute to Constipation in 6-Hydroxydopamine-Induced Parkinson's Disease Rats.

Frontiers in aging neuroscience

Zhang XL, Zhang XH, Yu X, Zheng LF, Feng XY, Liu CZ, Quan ZS, Zhang Y, Zhu JX.
PMID: 35002677
Front Aging Neurosci. 2021 Dec 23;13:770841. doi: 10.3389/fnagi.2021.770841. eCollection 2021.

Constipation and defecatory dysfunctions are frequent symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). The pathology of Lewy bodies in colonic and rectal cholinergic neurons suggests that cholinergic pathways are involved in colorectal dysmotility in PD. However, the underlying mechanism...

The effectiveness of parasympathomimetics for treating underactive bladder: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Neurourology and urodynamics

Moro C, Phelps C, Veer V, Clark J, Glasziou P, Tikkinen KAO, Scott AM.
PMID: 34816481
Neurourol Urodyn. 2022 Jan;41(1):127-139. doi: 10.1002/nau.24839. Epub 2021 Nov 24.

AIMS: Biological rationale suggests that parasympathomimetics (cholinergic receptor stimulating agents) could be beneficial for patients with underactive bladder. However, no systematic review with meta-analysis addressing potential benefits or adverse effects exists. The aim of this review was to assess...

Muscarinic pharmacology of the inhibition of adenylate cyclase in N18TG2 neuroblastoma cells.

Neurochemistry international

Bidaut-Russell M, Howlett AC.
PMID: 20501173
Neurochem Int. 1987;11(3):287-92. doi: 10.1016/0197-0186(87)90048-9.

This study characterizes the muscarinic cholinergic receptors associated with the inhibition of adenylate cyclase on N18TG2 neuroblastoma cell membranes. Agonists could be divided into two classes: oxotremorine, acetylcholine, carbachol and arecoline exerted the most efficacious and potent inhibition, while...
