Expression of the α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor in human lung cells
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>We and others have shown that one of the mechanisms of growth regulation of small cell lung cancer cell lines and cultured pulmonary neuroendocrine cells is by the binding of agonists to the α7 neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine recept...
