p(HGNC:RIC3) increases p(HGNC:CHRNA9) View Subject | View Object

Osman et al. [122] find that RIC-3 expression increases the total amount of α9 AChR in CL4 cells, supporting the view that RIC-3 regulates AChR trafficking by increasing the number of mature or correctly folded receptor subunits reaching the cell surface. PubMed:22040696

a(MESH:"Ganglia, Spinal") increases p(HGNC:CHRNA9) View Subject | View Object

α9 or a9 and α10 subunits are expressed in most immune cells, dorsal root ganglion cells, human keratinocytes and colon and breast cancer cells. PubMed:28901280

a(MESH:Acetylcholine) increases act(p(HGNC:CHRNA9)) View Subject | View Object

α9 and α9-α10 nAChRs have a number of interesting characteristics: they are acti- vated by ACh but not by the classical agonist nicotine. Cho- line is also a potent selective agonist of the α9 subtype PubMed:28901280

a(MESH:Choline) increases act(p(HGNC:CHRNA9)) View Subject | View Object

α9 and α9-α10 nAChRs have a number of interesting characteristics: they are acti- vated by ACh but not by the classical agonist nicotine. Cho- line is also a potent selective agonist of the α9 subtype PubMed:28901280

a(MESH:Keratinocytes) increases p(HGNC:CHRNA9) View Subject | View Object

α9 or a9 and α10 subunits are expressed in most immune cells, dorsal root ganglion cells, human keratinocytes and colon and breast cancer cells. PubMed:28901280

a(MESH:Nicotine) causesNoChange act(p(HGNC:CHRNA9)) View Subject | View Object

α9 and α9-α10 nAChRs have a number of interesting characteristics: they are acti- vated by ACh but not by the classical agonist nicotine. Cho- line is also a potent selective agonist of the α9 subtype PubMed:28901280

whereas phosphocholine (PC) does not evoke ion current responses in Xenopus oocytes expressing functional ho- momeric α9 or heteromeric α9-α10 nAChRs [121]. How- ever, preincubation with PC attenuates choline-induced ion current changes, thus suggesting that PC is a silent agonist of these two subtypes PubMed:28901280

path(MESH:"Breast Neoplasms") increases p(HGNC:CHRNA9) View Subject | View Object

Lee et al. [122] have found that α9 nAChRs are ubiquitously expressed in many epithe- lial, lung and breast cancer cell lines, most of which also express α5 and α10 nAChR subunits. α9 nAChRs are also present in primary tumour and non-malignant breast tissue obtained from patients, but their expression is higher in breast cancer cells than the surrounding normal tissue. PubMed:28901280

p(HGNC:CHRNA9) increases a(MESH:"Receptors, Nicotinic") View Subject | View Object

On the other hand, neuronal nicotinic receptors are formed by the combination of only two types of subunits (α2-10 and β2-4) PubMed:26813123

p(HGNC:CHRNA9) increases path(MESH:Neoplasms) View Subject | View Object

Si- lencing α9 nAChR expression in the tumour cells reduces their proliferation and tumorigenic potential in in vitro and in vivo assays [122]. PubMed:28901280
