Acetylcholine (AC h) plays an important role in memory function and has been implicated in
aging‐related dementia, in which the impairment of hippocampus‐dependent learning …

T and B cells express most cholinergic system components—eg, acetylcholine (ACh),
choline acetyltransferase (ChAT), acetylcholinesterase, and both muscarinic and nicotinic …

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) have been historically defined as ligand-gated
ion channels and function as such in the central and peripheral nervous systems. Recently …

Neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) regulate the rewarding actions of
nicotine contained in tobacco that establish and maintain the smoking habit. nAChRs also …

Neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) belong to a super-family of Cysloop

Neuronal nicotinic receptors (NAChRs) form a heterogeneous family of ion channels that are
differently expressed in many regions of the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral …

The α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor is a pentameric ligand-gated ion channel that plays
an important role in cholinergic signaling throughout the nervous system. Its unique …

Nicotinic acetylcholine, serotonin type 3, γ-amminobutyric acid type A, and glycine receptors
