The review summarizes evidences from extensive studies suggesting that ascending
mesolimbic cholinergic system (AMCS) that terminates in vast areas of forebrain and …

The “pneumotaxic center” in the Kölliker-Fuse and medial parabrachial nuclei of dorsolateral
pons (dl-pons) plays an important role in respiratory phase switching, modulation of …

In the aldehyde-fixed rat brain NADPH-diaphorase is suggested to be related to brain nitric
oxide synthase but also to other isoforms of this enzyme as well as to several non-related …

The basal forebrain (BF) contains cholinergic as well as different types of non-cholinergic
corticopetal neurons and interneurons, including neuropeptide Y (NPY) containing cells. BF …

Cholinergic muscarinic stimulation of vast areas of the limbic brain induced a well-
documented polydipsia in laboratory rats. This excessive water-drinking behavior has not …

Previous research has demonstrated that brainstem injections of acetylcholine agonists (eg,
carbachol) produced electrophysiological indicators of rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep in …

To facilitate high-throughput quantitative analysis of neuronal structure, this study optimized
the diOlistic method of whole neuron labeling to examine multiple neurons in fixed brain …

Cholinergic neurons in the laterodorsal tegmental (LDT) and peduncolopontine tegmental
(PPT) nuclei regulate reward, arousal, and sensory gating via major projections to midbrain …

The behavioral-state related firing of mesopontine cholinergic neurons of the laterodorsal
tegmental nucleus appears pivotal for generating both arousal and rapid-eye-movement …

Background Identification of cell phenotype from brain slices upon which in vitro
electrophysiological recordings have been performed often relies on conducting post hoc …
