Cholinergic interneurons mediate fast VGluT3-dependent glutamatergic transmission in the striatum.

PLoS ONE, 2011
The neurotransmitter glutamate is released by excitatory projection neurons throughout the brain. However, non-glutamatergic cells, including cholinergic and monoaminergic neurons, express markers that suggest that they are also capable of vesicular ...
