Nicotinic and muscarinic ACh receptor agonists and acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AChEls) can enhance cognitive function. However, it is unknown whether a common signaling pathway is involved in the ...
(Left) Nicotine withdrawal reduces nicotinic receptor activity, leading to a relative increase in muscarinic receptor activity and disrupting acetylcholine signaling balance. (Right) Suppressing ...
