a(MESH:"Endothelial Cells") increases p(HGNCGENEFAMILY:"Cholinergic receptors nicotinic subunits") View Subject | View Object

Neuronal nAChRs are not expressed exclusively in neurons. Instead, they are expressed by multiple cell types of diverse origins and functions including glia (165, 167, 425), keratinocytes (44, 86, 95, 426), endothelial cells (290, 495), and multiple cell types of the digestive system, lungs, and immune system (e.g., Refs. 95, 309, 492, 495).

Accordingly, ACh and its synthesizing enzyme choline acetyltransferase (ChAT), are found in human and animal erythrocytes, immune cells, endothelial and epithelial cells (including airway epithelial cells) and placenta cells. Small amounts of ACh are even found in blood PubMed:28901280

Thrombin is a serine protease that is a well characterized component of the coagulation cascade. It is typically produced and secreted by endothelial cells, including those in the brain in response to hemodynamic injury. PubMed:24027553
