Adenosine is a neuromodulator that operates via the most abundant inhibitory adenosine A
1 receptors (A 1 Rs) and the less abundant, but widespread, facilitatory A 2A Rs. It is …

Although the interest in the septohippocampal (SH) pathway is not recent [see the series of
papers by Petsche and co-workers in the 1960s (436, 437)], its study has been hampered for …

Many aspects of calcium homeostasis change with aging. Numerous calcium compartments
complicate studies of altered calcium regulation. However, age-related decreases in calcium …

A histochemical method for acetylcholinesterase was used to assess the regional density of
acetylcholinesterase-rich (putatively cholinergic) axons in the cerebral cortex. A dense …

It has been proposed that disruption of cholinergic input to the hippocampus and cortex
contributes to the learning and memory deficits associated with aging. The data reviewed …

Degenerative changes in the forebrain cholinergic nuclei have been studied
morphometrically in behaviourally characterized aged female Sprague‐Dawley rats. In all …

We review mainly recent studies on vasodilative regulation of cortex and hippocampus by
central cholinergic nerves originating in the basal forebrain. We also briefly review the …

In vivo extracellular acetylcholine release from brain hemispheric areas of 2-, 9-, and 18-
month-old rats was measured by intracerebral microdialysis coupled with a radioenzymatic …

Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is a common organophosphorus (OP) pesticide. Previous studies have
demonstrated that neonatal rats are more sensitive than adults to the acute toxicity of high …

The effects of a carnitine derivative, acetyl‐L‐carnitine (ALCAR), on the cognitive and
cholinergic activities of aging rats were examined. Rats were given ALCAR (100 mg/kg) per …
