Nicotinic acetylcholine binding sites in Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract:

:In Alzheimer's disease (AD), there is a loss of presynaptic cholinergic markers in the cerebral cortex, but the nature of cholinergic receptor changes is unclear. In this study, [3H]acetylcholine and [3H]nicotine were used to label nicotinic cholinergic binding sites in cerebral cortical tissues obtained at autopsy from patients with AD and from matched controls. A consistent and severe loss of nicotinic receptors was found in AD.

  • Synergistic interactions of endogenous opioids and cannabinoid systems.

    abstract::Cannabinoids and opioids are distinct drug classes historically used in combination to treat pain. Delta(9)-THC, an active constituent in marijuana, releases endogenous dynorphin A and leucine enkephalin in the production of analgesia. The endocannabinoid, anandamide (AEA), fails to release dynorphin A. The synthetic ...
