Transgenic Mice Overexpressing Islet Beta Cell M3 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptors
Researchers at NIH have generated transgenic mice in which the M3 muscarinic receptor is overexpressed in pancreatic beta cells. This was done by placing the receptor gene under the control of the 650 bp rat insulin promoter II (RIP II). The resulting mice show a pronounced increase in glucose tolerance and enhanced plasma insulin levels. Strikingly,...

Transgenic Mice with Constitutively Active M3 Muscarinic Receptor in Islet Beta Cells
Q490L point mutation was introduced into the rat M3 muscarinic receptor cDNA to confer persistent, constitutive (ligand-independent) activity. Expression of the M3 receptor mutant was placed under the control of a 650 bp fragment of the rat insulin promoter II (RIP II) to limit expression to the islet beta cell.

Islet Beta Cell Only M3 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor Knockout Mouse
Researchers at NIH have developed islet beta cell M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor knockout mouse. The mice were generated by crossing floxed mouse M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor mice with mice in which Cre recombinase was controlled by the beta-cell specific rat insulin promoter (RIP-Cre mice).

M3 Muscarinic Receptor Knockout Mice (Chrm3 tm1Jwe) for the Study of Obesity and Other Metabolic Disorders
The five Muscarinic Acetylcholine (ACh) receptors are G-protein coupled receptors (M1R-M5R). M3 muscarinic ACh receptors are present in the central nervous system and the periphery. M3R knockout mice are viable and fertile, and have no major morphological abnormalities. They have a lean phenotype due to a combination of reduced caloric intake and...

M5 Muscarinic Receptor Knockout (Chrm5tm1Jwe) Mouse Model for Neurological Studies
M5 muscarinic receptor knockout: Deficiency of M5Rs reduces drug-seeking behavior. The five Muscarinic Acetylcholine (ACh) receptors are G-protein coupled receptors (M1R-M5R). M1R, M3R and M5R selectively couple to Gq/G11; M2R and M4R selectively couple to Gi/Go. M5R knockout mice are viable and fertile, and have no major morphological abnormalities. M5...
