Some observations on the binding patterns of α-bungarotoxin in the central nervous system of the rat
Stephen P. Hunt,Jakob Schmidt +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the α-bungarotoxin binding sites were found to be predominantly associated with central areas of the brain in direct reception of sensory inputs (the main and accessory olfactory bulbs, superior colliculus, ventral lateral geniculate nucleus, cochlear nuclei, the substantia gelatinosa of the spinal cord and spinal trigeminal nucleus, the principal sensory nucleus of the trigemeinal, and the dorsal column nuclei).
Journal ArticleDOI
Autoradiographic localisation of α-bungarotoxin-binding sites in the central nervous system
TL;DR: Studies on the localisation of toxin-binding sites in brains would be valuable, not only to corroborate neurotoxin specificity, but also to provide information on the regional distribution of nicotinic receptor sites in the CNS.

Journal ArticleDOI
Skeletal muscle denervation activates acetylcholine receptor genes.
Huey Jen Tsay,Jakob Schmidt +1 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that a denervation signal reaches the genome to induce receptor expression and since the increase in mRNA levels significantly exceeds what can be accounted for by increased gene activity, posttranscriptional effects are suggested.
Journal Article
Drug binding properties of an alpha-bungarotoxin-binding component from rat brain.
TL;DR: The findings are interpreted as supporting the notion that the α-bungarotoxin-binding macromolecule in the central nervous system is a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor.
