Effect of oxotremorine on the acetylcholine content of whole brain and various brain regions in the pigeon.

R Igić.   

Abstract

Oxotremorine (0.125 mg/kg) produces a significant increase in total acetylcholine content in whole pigeon brain. The contribution of different regions to this increase varies. The largest increase occurs in the nucleus basalis (paleostriatum augmentatum), a region which is highly involved in motor control. The mechanism by which oxotremorine increases the acetylcholine content of brain and the causal relationship between the rise in acetylcholine content and tremor are discussed.
