Cellular birthdate predicts laminar and regional cholinergic projection topography in the forebrain
The basal forebrain cholinergic system projects broadly throughout the cortex and constitutes a critical source of neuromodulation for arousal and attention. Traditionally, this system was thought to function diffusely.

Distribution of choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) immunoreactivity in the brain of the teleost Cyprinus carpio [PDF]
Cholinergic systems play a role in basic cerebral functions and its dysfunction is associated with deficit in neurodegenerative disease. Mechanisms involved in human brain diseases, are often approached by using fish models, especially cyprinids, given ...

Cholinergic degeneration is one of the key pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), a condition that is characterized by synaptic disorders and memory impairments. Nerve growth factor (NGF) is secreted in brain regions that receive projections

Cholinergic fiber aberrations in nucleus basalis lesioned rat and Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
Innervation density and morphological aberrations of cholinergic fibers were studied with choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) immunocytochemistry and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) histochemistry in 30-35 month-old aged rats and rats with long-term bilateral lesions of the magnocellular basal nucleus (MBN).

A part of cholinergic fibers in mouse superior cervical ganglia contain GABA or glutamate [PDF]
The localizations and functions of glutamate and GABA, the major amino acid neurotransmitters in the central nervous system, are still unclear in the peripheral nervous system. We immunohistochemically double-stained mouse superior cervical ganglia with antibodies for the vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAchT), GAD65, the vesicular glutamate ...

Tractography of the external capsule and cognition: A diffusion MRI study of cholinergic fibers
White matter changes (WMC) in the cholinergic tracts contribute to executive dysfunction in the context of cognitive aging. WMC in the external capsule have been associated with executive dysfunction. The objectives of this study were to: 1) Characterize the lateral cholinergic tracts (LCT) and the superior longitudinal fasciculus (SLF).

Cholinergic Signaling Attenuates Pro-Inflammatory Interleukin-8 Response in Colonic Epithelial Cells
Infants affected by Hirschsprung disease (HSCR), a neurodevelopmental congenital disorder, lack ganglia of the intrinsic enteric nervous system (aganglionosis) in a variable length of the colon, and are prone to developing severe Hirschsprung-associated ...

Increasing evidence supports a role for cerebrovasculature dysfunction in the etiology of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Blood vessels in the brain are composed of a collection of cells and acellular material that comprise the neurovascular unit (NVU).
