Brain Cholinergic Systems

This definitive study of brain cholinergic systems features contributions from sixteen leading authorities in fields including morphology, immunohistochemistry, electrophysiology, and psychology. It covers major aspects of the organization and connectivity of cholinergic systems, intrinsic electrophysiological properties, ionic conductances of central cholinergic and cholinoceptive neuron, the effects of brainstem and basal forebrain cholinergic systems upon thalmic and cortical neurons, plasticity processes in the thalamin ...
