Data provided by the National Library of Medicine- Permeant but not impermeant divalent cations enhance activation of nondesensitizing alpha(7) nicotinic receptors.
- Glutamate 172, essential for modulation of L247T alpha7 ACh receptors by Ca2+, lines the extracellular vestibule.
- Agonist-induced conformational changes in the extracellular domain of alpha 7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.
- Role of the outer beta-sheet in divalent cation modulation of alpha7 nicotinic receptors.
- Porin-mediated antibiotic resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae: ion, solute, and antibiotic permeation through PIB proteins with penB mutations.
- Agonist-driven conformational changes in the inner beta-sheet of alpha7 nicotinic receptors.
- Conformational changes in alpha 7 acetylcholine receptors underlying allosteric modulation by divalent cations.
- An allosteric modulator of alpha7 nicotinic receptors, N-(5-Chloro-2,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-N'-(5-methyl-3-isoxazolyl)-urea (PNU-120596), causes conformational changes in the extracellular ligand binding domain similar to those caused by acetylcholine.

A Dose of Electricity: A Promising Treatment for Lupus PainIn 1998, Dr. Kevin Tracey, a neurosurgeon, inventor, and scientist, advanced a radical hypothesis, which was scoffed at by doctors of his time. He basically postulated that the immune system can be controlled by a network of nerves called the vagus nerve. What led to this discovery was an accidental...
