Researchers have identified a mechanism by which acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter best known for its role in muscle control and attention, can effectively commandeer serotonin release inside the ...

Acetylcholine "conductors" in the striatum directly trigger serotonin release, offering new insights into the origins of OCD and chemical imbalances.

Scientists have found a particularly interesting way that the brain orchestrates its chemical signaling. A newly invented scientific technique shows, for the first time, how one neurological chemical ...

The new report suggests patients with acetylcholine receptor (AChR) antibody titers above 8.11 nmol/L were at higher risk of conversion. Antibody titers in patients with acetylcholine receptor (AChR) ...

In healthy people, binding of the molecule acetylcholine (ACh) to its receptor (AChR) on skeletal muscle cells triggers muscle contraction underlying regular daily activities. In the autoimmune ...
