| Members of the ligand-gated ion channel receptor family are characterized by their fast transmitting response to neurotransmitters. Two important members of this family are the nicotinic acetylcholine and glutamate receptors, both of which are composed of five homologous subunits forming a transmembrane aqueous pore. These transmembrane receptors change conformation in response to their cognate neurotransmitter. Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) are found at the postsynaptic membrane of the neuromuscular junction and bind acetylcholine molecules, allowing ions to move through the pore. AChR alpha 9 is the only AChR found in cochlear hair cells. In adult rat cochlear outer hair cells (OHCs), AChR alpha 9 is expressed primarily in basal regions, where it is a component of the cholinergic receptor, while in inner hair cells (IHCs), it is expressed primarily in apical regions. The alpha 9 subunit mediates efferent synaptic transmission between cholinergic olivocochlear fibers and OHCs. One of the main functions of the AChR alpha 9 channel is to provide a pathway for calcium ion influx. AChR alpha 9 may also influence the arrival of efferent axons. |
