At the rat motor endplate, pre-synaptic facilitatory adenosine A2A and muscarinic M1 receptors are mutually exclusive. We investigated whether these receptors share a common intracellular signalling pathway. Suppression of McN-A-343-induced M1 facilitation of [3H]ACh release was partially recovered when CGS21680C

Investigating how a test drug alters the reaction of a site-directed electrophile with a receptor is a powerful method for determining whether the drug acts competitively or allosterically, provided that the binding site of the electrophile is known. In this

The unusual pharmacology of McN-A-343 was first described by Roszowski in 1961. The agonist appeared to be a selective stimulant of muscarinic receptors in sympathetic ganglia, now known to be the muscarinic M₁ receptor subtype. However, subsequent research demonstrated that

The M2 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) possesses at least one binding site for allosteric modulators that is dependent on the residues (172)EDGE(175), Tyr(177), and Thr(423). However, the contribution of these residues to actions of allosteric agonists, as opposed to modulators

Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3) is a constitutively active multifunctional serine-threonine kinase which is involved in diverse physiological processes. GSK-3 has been implicated in a wide range of diseases including neurodegeneration, inflammation, diabetes and cancer. GSK-3 is a downstream target
