Role of the Agonist Binding Site in Up-Regulation of Neuronal Nicotinic α4β2 Receptors
Abstract
Long-term exposure to nicotinic ligands results in up-regulation of neuronal nicotinic alpha4beta2 receptors in the brain and in heterologous expression systems. Up-regulation can be produced by a variety of drugs, including nicotinic agonists and competitive antagonists, but previous studies have indicated that the signal for up-regulation does not reflect a traditional nicotinic pharmacology, and the initial steps in signal transduction are not clear. We examined the signal for up-regulation and the possible involvement of the nicotine binding site in signal reception using mutated subunits transiently expressed in human embryonic kidney 293 cells. The data indicate that receptor activation and desensitization are not part of the signaling pathway. However, mutations to residues in the binding site can affect up-regulation. These results provide evidence that the binding site is directly involved in receiving the signal for up-regulation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
