Pharmacological data clearly indicate that both muscarinic and nicotinic acetylcholine
receptors have a role in the encoding of new memories. Localized lesions and antagonist …

Acetylcholine may set the dynamics of cortical networks to those appropriate for learning of
new information, while decreased cholinergic modulation may set the appropriate dynamics …

Extensive evidence supports the view that cholinergic mechanisms modulate learning and
memory formation. This paper reviews evidence for cholinergic regulation of multiple …

1. The effect of cholinergic modulation on associative memory function was studied in a
computational model based on the physiology and anatomic structure of piriform cortex …

Even though “procholinergic” drugs are almost the sole kind of treatments currently used as
cognitive enhancers in patients with Alzheimer's disease, the role of acetylcholine (ACh) in …

Acetylcholine (AC h) plays an important role in memory function and has been implicated in
agingrelated dementia, in which the impairment of hippocampusdependent learning …

Acetylcholine has long been implicated in memory, including hippocampal-dependent
memory, but the specific role for this neurotransmitter is difficult to identify in human …

Extensive physiological research has demonstrated a number of common effects of
acetylcholine within cortical structures, including the hippocampus, piriform cortex, and …

Acetylcholine is an essential excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system and
undertakes a vital role in cognitive function. Consequently, there is ample evidence to …

This research focuses on linking episodic memory function to the cellular physiology of
hippocampal neurons, with a particular emphasis on modulatory effects at cholinergic and γ …
