Evidences a(CHEBI:"amyloid-beta") to a(MESH:"alpha7 Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor")

However, alpha7 nAChR activation was observed in X. laevis oocytes when a range of Abeta concentration spanning from 1 to 100 pM was applied (Dineley et al., 2002)

In this system enhancement of Akt phosphorylation and activation of ERK pathway was observed following alpha7 agonist treatment, suggesting that Abeta inhibits the neuroprotective effect of alpha7 nAChR activation (Zhi et al., 2014)
