Acetylcholine is a chemical messenger, or neurotransmitter, that plays an important role in brain and muscle function. Imbalances in acetylcholine are linked with chronic conditions, such as Alzheimer ...

In a new study, a group of researchers, led by Dr. Joshua Goldberg from the Hebrew University, describe a new kind of neurochemical wave in the brain. Their research, published in Nature ...

Acetylcholine, a key neurotransmitter, plays a vital role in your body by facilitating communication between neurons in both the central and peripheral nervous systems. It is essential for muscle ...

Acetylcholine regulates blood flow, but the source of blood acetylcholine has been unclear. Now, researchers at Karolinska Institutet have discovered that certain T cells in human blood can produce ...

Scientists at Newcastle University's Neural Circuits Laboratory, in collaboration with researchers at the Blue Brain Project (EPFL, Switzerland) and leading institutions in Spain, have published a ...

Acetylcholine plays a vital role as a neurotransmitter that oversees cognitive tasks, memory, and the regulation of mood. With aging, our body’s generation of acetylcholine decreases, which could ...

Scientists have long-studied the role of dopamine, a chemical in the brain that helps control learning and movement, in order to better understand Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, and ...

Even at the turn of the century, physicians knew that cholinergic drugs such as scopolamine, which blocks muscarinic acetylcholine receptors, could cause people to forget what happened while they were ...
