Electrophysiology of T lymphocyte cholinergic receptors. [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1980
The presence of functional muscarinic-cholinergic receptors on at least some T lymphocytes is suggested by the existence of saturable, high-affinity, specific muscarinic binding in T cell-enriched, but not in B cell-enriched, cell suspensions and by observed cholinergic effects on lymphocytes, (e.g., increased lytic capacity of cytotoxic lymphocytes ...

Cholinergic suppression: A postsynaptic mechanism of long-term associative learning [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Food avoidance learning in the mollusc Pleurobranchaea entails reduction in the responsiveness of key brain interneurons in the feeding neural circuitry, the paracerebral feeding command interneurons (PCNs), to the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (AcCho).

Cholinergic receptor alterations in the cerebral cortex of spinal cord injured rat

open access: yesBiochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2017
Many areas of the cerebral cortex process sensory information or coordinate motor output necessary for control of movement. Disturbances in cortical cholinergic system can affect locomotor coordination.

Cholinergic modulation of the medial prefrontal cortex: the role of nicotinic receptors in attention and regulation of neuronal activity

open access: yesFront. Neural Circuits, 2014
Acetylcholine (ACh) release in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is crucial for normal cognitive performance. Despite the fact that many have studied how ACh affects neuronal processing in the mPFC and thereby influences attention behavior, there is ...

Striatal cholinergic interneurons generate beta and gamma oscillations in the corticostriatal circuit and produce motor deficits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cortico-basal ganglia-thalamic (CBT) neural circuits are critical modulators of cognitive and motor function. When compromised, these circuits contribute to neurological and psychiatric disorders, such as Parkinson's disease (PD).

Corelease of acetylcholine and GABA from cholinergic forebrain neurons

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Neurotransmitter corelease is emerging as a common theme of central neuromodulatory systems. Though corelease of glutamate or GABA with acetylcholine has been reported within the cholinergic system, the full extent is unknown.

Alzheimer's Disease: Targeting the Cholinergic System

open access: yesCurrent Neuropharmacology, 2016
Acetylcholine (ACh) has a crucial role in the peripheral and central nervous systems. The enzyme choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) is responsible for synthesizing ACh from acetyl-CoA and choline in the cytoplasm and the vesicular acetylcholine transporter

Axonal α7* nicotinic acetylcholine receptors modulate glutamatergic signaling and synaptic vesicle organization in ventral hippocampal projections

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2022
Modulation of the release of glutamate by activation of presynaptic nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) is one of the most prevalent mechanism of nicotinic facilitation of glutamatergic transmission in cortico-limbic circuits.

Cooperative Glutamatergic and Cholinergic Mechanisms Generate Short-Term Modifications of Synaptic Effectiveness in Prepositus Hypoglossi Neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
To maintain horizontal eye position on a visual target after a saccade, extraocular motoneurons need a persistent (tonic) neural activity, called "eye-position signal," generated by prepositus hypoglossi (PH) neurons.

Dopamine and Serotonin-Induced Modulation of GABAergic and Glutamatergic Transmission in the Striatum and Basal Forebrain

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2017
Catecholamine receptor-mediated modulation of glutamatergic or GABAergic transmission in the striatum as well as basal forebrain (BF) has been intensively studied during these two decades.
