Recent work continues to place cholinergic circuits at center stage for normal executive and
mnemonic functioning and provides compelling evidence that the loss of cholinergic …

Acetylcholine (AC h) plays an important role in memory function and has been implicated in
aging‐related dementia, in which the impairment of hippocampus‐dependent learning …

The brain is constituted of multiple networks of functionally correlated brain areas, out of
which the default-mode network (DMN) is the largest. Most existing research into the DMN …

Rats and mice are used for studying neuronal circuits underlying recognition memory due to
their ability to spontaneously remember the occurrence of an object, its place and an …

Learning and memory are assumed to be supported by mechanisms that involve cholinergic
transmission and hippocampal theta. Using G protein–coupled receptor-activation–based …

Based on recent molecular genetics, as well as functional and quantitative anatomical
studies, the basal forebrain (BF) cholinergic projections, once viewed as a diffuse system …

The hippocampal theta rhythm plays important roles in information processing; however, the
mechanisms of its generation are not well understood. We developed a data-driven …

Acetylcholine (ACh) is one of the most important neurotransmitters in the central cholinergic
system; it specifically binds to muscarinic and nicotinic receptors and is degraded by …

Cholinergic neurons in the medial septum (MS) constitute a major source of cholinergic
input to the forebrain and modulate diverse functions, including sensory processing …

Locomotor speed is a basic input used to calculate one's position, but where this signal
comes from is unclear. We identified neurons in the supramammillary nucleus (SuM) of the …
