Different cholinergic cell groups in the basal forebrain regulate social interaction and social recognition memory

Scientific Reports, 2021
Social behaviour is a complex construct that is reported to include several components of social approach, interaction and recognition memory. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is mainly characterized by progressive dementia and is accompanied by cognitive ...

ACETYLCHOLINE AND ITS SYNTHESIZING ENZYME CHOLINE ACETYLTRANSPHERASE IN THE ENTERIC NERVOUS SYSTEM [PDF]

Journal of IMAB, 2022
The enteric nervous system is the largest and most complex division of the peripheral nervous system. Located in the wall of the gastrointestinal tract, it is a regulatory and coordination unit of the nervous system.

Acetylcholine and spinal locomotor networks: The insider

Physiological Reports, 2021
This article aims to review studies that have investigated the role of neurons that use the transmitter acetylcholine (ACh) in controlling the operation of locomotor neural networks within the spinal cord. This cholinergic system has the particularity of

PET Imaging of Perceptual Learning-Induced Changes in the Aged Rodent Cholinergic System

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
The cholinergic system enhances attention and gates plasticity, making it a major regulator of adult learning. With aging, however, progressive degeneration of the cholinergic system impairs both the acquisition of new skills and functional recovery ...

Mitochondrial Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors Support Liver Cells Viability After Partial Hepatectomy

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2018
Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) expressed on the cell plasma membrane are ligand-gated ion channels mediating fast synaptic transmission, regulating neurotransmitter and cytokine release and supporting the viability of many cell types.

Multiple Sources of Cholinergic Input to the Superior Olivary Complex

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2021
The superior olivary complex (SOC) is a major computation center in the brainstem auditory system. Despite previous reports of high expression levels of cholinergic receptors in the SOC, few studies have addressed the functional role of acetylcholine in ...

Novel information on the non-neuronal cholinergic system in orthopedics provides new possible treatment strategies for inflammatory and degenerative diseases

Orthopedic Reviews, 2009
Anti-cholinergic agents are used in the treatment of several pathological conditions. Therapy regimens aimed at up-regulating cholinergic functions, such as treatment with acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, are also currently prescribed.

Cholinergic Mechanisms in Spinal Locomotion - Potential Target for Rehabilitation Approaches

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2014
Previous experiments implicate cholinergic brainstem and spinal systems in the control of locomotion. Our results demonstrate that the endogenous cholinergic propriospinal system, acting via M2 and M3 muscarinic receptors, is capable of consistently ...
