The α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor and the acute stress response: maternal genotype determines offspring phenotype.

Physiology & behavior - 3 Aug 2011

Abstract excerpt

α7 Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (α7nAchRs) modulate immune activation by suppressing production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in peripheral immune cells. α7nAchRs also modulate inhibitory output in the hippocampus, which provides input to key circuits of the HPA axis. Therefore, the α7 nicot...
