Topography of the nuclei and distribution of Acetylcholinesterase activity in the septum of the telencephalon in man [PDF]

Folia Morphol. (Warsz.), 1976, 35, 4, 405-412, 2017
Distribution of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity in the septum of the telencephalon in man was studied in 15 human brains using the acetylthiocholine method. Highest activity of AChE was found in the nucleus of the diagonal band and nucleus accumbens, and lowest in the Lateral nucleus. Comparison of histochemical results with cellular structure and
