a(CHEBI:"amyloid-beta polypeptide 40") decreases act(a(HBP:"alpha-4 beta-2 nAChR")) View Subject | View Object

Experiments performed on X. laevis oocytes transiently transfected with alpha7 or alpha4beta2 cDNA showed a concentration dependent effect of Abeta on receptor inhibition. In this case the peptide used was Abeta1-40 and the concentrations adopted were between 0.1 and 10 mM, with increased Abeta concentration resulting in a bigger inhibition of the receptor (Tozaki et al., 2002) PubMed:25514383

a(CHEBI:"amyloid-beta") increases act(a(CHEBI:acetylcholine)) View Subject | View Object

A different set of experiments demonstrated that Abeta enhances ACh activation of the alpha4beta2 nAChRs expressed in oocytes, this first activation of the receptor was followed by its inhibition (Pym et al., 2005) PubMed:25514383
