Published in 2018 at "ChemMedChem"

DOI: 10.1002/cmdc.201800387

Abstract: A more sustainable process for the synthesis of the long‐acting muscarinic acetylcholine antagonist umeclidinium bromide is described. Specifically, we report the synthesis of ethyl 1‐(2‐chloroethyl)‐4‐piperidinecarboxylate, a key intermediate in the preparation of umeclidinium bromide, in… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Biochemical and biophysical research communications"

DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2018.06.125

Abstract: Hypofunction of the salivary gland causes several life-disrupting side effects such as dental caries, oral candidiasis, loss of taste, and swallowing disorders. No satisfactory therapy has been established to treat salivary hypofunction. Pilocarpine represents a… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Journal of Functional Foods"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jff.2019.02.018

Abstract: Abstract We previously discovered that rooibos extract activates the M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (M3R), a key component of exocrine secretion. In this study, we examined the rooibos extract for active components in vitro and monitored… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Journal of medicinal chemistry"

DOI: 10.1021/acs.jmedchem.7b01812

Abstract: Targeting allosteric sites at M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors is a promising strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Positive allosteric modulators not only may potentiate binding and/or signaling of the endogenous agonist acetylcholine (ACh) but… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Journal of medicinal chemistry"

DOI: 10.1021/acs.jmedchem.8b01967

Abstract: Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (MRs), comprising five subtypes (M1R-M5R) in humans, exhibit a high degree of structural similarity. Therefore, subtype-selective MR agonists and antagonists are lacking. We present an approach to highly M2R-selective MR antagonists based… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/srep40381

Abstract: Interaction of orthosteric ligands with extracellular domain was described at several aminergic G protein-coupled receptors, including muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. The orthosteric antagonists quinuclidinyl benzilate (QNB) and N-methylscopolamine (NMS) bind to the binding pocket of the… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Insect Molecular Biology"

DOI: 10.1111/imb.12775

Abstract: Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) which are G protein‐coupled receptors play key roles in insect physiology. Whereas vertebrate mAChRs are important targets for pharmaceutical drugs, insect mAChRs are under‐exploited by the agro‐chemical industry. Moreover, insect mAChRs… read more here.
