The role of interactions between the cholinergic system and other neuromodulatory systems in learning and memory.

TL;DR: It is important to consider not only the independent contributions of age‐related changes in neuromodulatory systems to cognitive decline, but also the contribution of interactions between these systems to the learning and memory deficits associated with again and AD.

The Nucleus Basalis Magnocellularis Cholinergic System: One Hundred Years of Progress

TL;DR: Recent attempts to understand the role of the NBM Ch neurons in higher cognitive function by the use of selective lesion analyses and electrophysiological recording techniques are focused upon.

Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors in the hippocampus, neocortex and amygdala: a review of immunocytochemical localization in relation to learning and memory

TL;DR: A hypothesis for the role of muscarinic receptors in learning and memory in terms of modulation between learning and recall states of brain areas at the postsynaptic level is proposed by way of immunocytochemistry employing the monoclonal antibody M35.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cholinergic system and memory in the rat: effects of chronic ethanol, embryonic basal forebrain brain transplants and excitotoxic lesions of cholinergic basal forebrain projection system.

TL;DR: The results indicate that the forebrain cholinergic system acts as a whole, without major functional differences between the projections originating in the medial septal area/diagonal band complex and the basal nucleus, and that it discharges a very general function in cognitive processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Muscarinic cholinergic influences in memory consolidation.

TL;DR: Evidence of increases in hippocampal and cortical acetylcholine levels following learning experiences support the view that endogenous ACh release is involved in long-term memory consolidation, and the findings indicating that mR drug treatments influence plasticity in the hippocampus and in sensory cortices strongly suggest thatmR activation isinvolved in the storage of information in these brain regions.

The Cholinergic Hypothesis of Geriatric Memory Dysfunction

TL;DR: Biochemical, electrophysiological, and pharmacological evidence supporting a role for cholinergic dysfunction in age-related memory disturbances is critically reviewed and an attempt has been made to identify pseudoissues, resolve certain controversies, and clarify misconceptions that have occurred in the literature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alzheimer's disease: a disorder of cortical cholinergic innervation

TL;DR: Advances in neurotransmitter systems involved in the symptomatic manifestations of neurological and psychiatric disorders reflect a close interaction between experimental and clinical neuroscientists in which information derived from basic neurobiology is rapidly utilized to analyze disorders of the human brain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Central cholinergic pathways in the rat: an overview based on an alternative nomenclature (Ch1-Ch6).

TL;DR: It appears that the age-related changes of memory function as well as some of the behavioral disturbances seen in the dementia of Alzheimer's Disease may be related to pathological alterations along central cholinergic pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hippocampus, space, and memory

TL;DR: It is proposed that the hippocampus is selectively involved in behaviors that require working memory, irrespective of the type of material (spatial or nonspatial) that is to be processed by that memory.
