Acetylcholine facilitates recovery of episodic memory after brain damage.

Croxson PL, Browning PG, Gaffan D, Baxter MG (2012) Acetylcholine facilitates recovery of episodic memory after brain damage. J Neurosci 32(40):13787-13795. doi: 10.1523/JNEUROSCI.2947-12.2012

Summary: Episodic memory is controlled by several interconnected brain structures. The order in which these structures sustain damage can affect the processes lost. In this work the authors performed numerous bilateral injections of ME20.4-SAP (Cat. #IT-15) into the infero-temporal cortex, the medial surface of the temporal lobe, the perirhinal and entorhinal cortex, and the temporal pole of monkeys. These injections totaled 2.2-2.5 μg of conjugate. The results indicate that loss of cortical acetylcholine function will interfere with adaptation to memory impairments caused by structural damage in episodic memory centers.
