Investigating the role of α7 nicotinic receptors in inflammation
Alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (α7 nAChRs) are ligand-gated ion-channels located in brain, retina, autonomic ganglia and some immune cells such as macrophages. α7 nAChRs have emerged as a novel target to inhibit peripheral inflammation by blocking the transcription factor, nuclear factor k...
