Anybody out there know of (or have) cultured cells that express lots of one
type of neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor?  I'd like to get some. 
I know PC12 cells express such receptors (lots of chatter on how to use NGF
on 'em) but I understand that they produce three variations of nAChRs.  My
project is to investigate the inhibition of the neuronal nAChR by the
marine neurotoxin lophotoxin.

Thanks,

Duke
