Muscarinic modulation of M and h currents in gerbil spherical bushy cells.
PLoS ONE, 2020 Descending cholinergic fibers innervate the cochlear nucleus. Spherical bushy cells, principal neurons of the anterior part of the ventral cochlear nucleus, are depolarized by cholinergic agonists on two different time scales.

Thalamic inputs to dorsomedial striatum are involved in inhibitory control: evidence from the five-choice serial reaction time task in rats [PDF]
, 2017 Rationale Corticostriatal circuits are widely implicated in the top-down control of attention including inhibitory control and behavioural flexibility. However, recent neurophysiological evidence also suggests a role for thalamic inputs to striatum in

Muscarinic cholinergic receptors in rabbit retina
Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 1985 Abstract Binding sites with high affinity and specificity for [3 H]-quinuclidinyl benzilate are present in rabbit retinal homogenates. Only one set of binding sites was detected with an apparent dissociation constant of 2.13 times 10−10 M and a density of 59.2 fmol mg−1 of protein.

Selectively driving cholinergic fibers optically in the thalamic reticular nucleus promotes sleep
eLife, 2016 Cholinergic projections from the basal forebrain and brainstem are thought to play important roles in rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and arousal. Using transgenic mice in which channelrhdopsin-2 is selectively expressed in cholinergic neurons, we show ...

Biological Functions of Keratinocyte Cholinergic Receptors
Journal of Investigative Dermatology Symposium Proceedings, 1997 Human epidermal keratinocytes possess cholinergic enzymes, which synthesize and degrade acetylcholine, and express both nicotinic and muscarinic classes of cholinergic receptors on their cell surfaces. These receptors bind acetylcholine and initiate cellular response.
