Meanings of cholinergic neurons in English

Possible target preferences of basal forebrain cholinergic neurons were studied in organotypic slice cultures.

Targeted knockdown of tara suggests that it functions in cholinergic neurons to promote sleep.

Motor neurons are large cholinergic neurons located in the brain stem and spinal cord.

Basal forebrain cholinergic neurons send their axons to cerebral cortex in a topographically organized projection.

Spontaneous atrophy of basal forebrain cholinergic neurons occurs with aging in the non-human primate brain.

Experiments tested the hypothesis that this topographic organization results from target preferences of the cholinergic neurons.

These data suggest that basal forebrain cholinergic neurons can innervate any portion of the cerebral mantle.

Without such confirmatory evidence it is best to conclude that there are no cholinergic neurons in the hippocampus.

Lesions of cholinergic neurons have been found by many investigators to impair choice accuracy in the radial arm maze.

These results suggest that a loss of forebrain cholinergic neurons is a feature of congenital OTC deficiency in these mutants.

Selective saporin lesions of BF cholinergic neurons did not alter the enhancement of cortical GBO power induced by BF PV stimulation.

In addition to basal forebrain cholinergic axons, the normally local circuit cholinergic neurons of the striatum also send axons into cerebral cortex.

The cholinergic neurons of the basal forebrain provide cholinergic innervation to cortical structures and their integrity is vital to normal cognitive function.

Development and differentiation of basal forebrain-derived cholinergic neurons were studied using a new technique that combines dissociated cell cultures with organotypic slice cultures.

Here we expressed channelrhodopsin or halorhodopsin in basal forebrain cholinergic neurons of mice with optic fibers directed into this region and prefrontal cortex.

FGF-5 also increased the choline acetyltransferase activity of cultured rat septal cholinergic neurons, the effect being additive to that of nerve growth factor.
