TL;DR: It appears that the age-related changes of memory function as well as some of the behavioral disturbances seen in the dementia of Alzheimer's Disease may be related to pathological alterations along central cholinergic pathways.

Neurotrophins: roles in neuronal development and function.
Eric J. Huang,Louis F. Reichardt +1 more
TL;DR: Neurotrophins regulate development, maintenance, and function of vertebrate nervous systems, and control synaptic function and synaptic plasticity, while continuing to modulate neuronal survival.

Masked Presentations of Emotional Facial Expressions Modulate Amygdala Activity without Explicit Knowledge
Paul J. Whalen,Scott L. Rauch,Nancy L. Etcoff,Sean C. McInerney,Michael B. Lee,Michael A. Jenike +5 more
TL;DR: This study, using fMRI in conjunction with masked stimulus presentations, represents an initial step toward determining the role of the amygdala in nonconscious processing.

International Union of Pharmacology. XXIII. The Angiotensin II Receptors
TL;DR: Although AT(1) receptors mediate most of the known actions of Ang II, the AT(2) receptor contributes to the regulation of blood pressure and renal function and the development of specific nonpeptide receptor antagonists has led to major advances in the physiology, pharmacology, and therapy of the renin-angiotensin system.

Nerve growth factor promotes survival of septal cholinergic neurons after fimbrial transections
TL;DR: It is suggested that fimbrial transections resulted in retrograde degeneration of cholinergic septo-hippocampal neurons and that NGF treatment strongly attenuated this lesion-induced degeneration.

Central cholinergic systems and cognition
TL;DR: Evidence is presented that the nucleus basalis-neocortical cholinergic system contributes greatly to visual attentional function, but not to mnemonic processes per se, and it is suggested that nucleus basali-amygdala cholinerential projections have a role in the retention of affective conditioning while brainstem cholinery projections to the thalamus and midbrain dopamine neurons affect basic arousal processes.

Some efferent connections of the rostral hypothalamus in the squirrel monkey (Saimiri sciureus) and cat.
TL;DR: The efferent connections of the ventromedial nucleus and of the anterior hypothalamic area have been studied autoradiographically in the squirrel monkey and cat, and some observations have also been made on the efferent connection of the periventricular, paraventricular and accessory supraoptic nuclei.
Human serial learning: enhancement with arecholine and choline impairment with scopolamine
TL;DR: "poor" performers were more vulnerable to both the enhancing effect of cholinergic agonist and precursor and the impairment after Cholinergic antagonist than "good" performers.
Midbrain, diencephalic and cortical relationships of the basal nucleus of meynert and associated structures in primates
TL;DR: The structure and connectivity of the basal nucleus of Meynert, the substantia innominata in which it lies, and certain related areas have been examined in New World and Old World Monkeys, using retrograde and anterograde axonal transport methods.
