Cholinergic basal forebrain structures are not essential for mediation of the arousing action of glutamate

Lelkes Z, Abdurakhmanova S, Porkka-Heiskanen T (2018) Cholinergic basal forebrain structures are not essential for mediation of the arousing action of glutamate. J Sleep Res 27:e12605. doi: 10.1111/jsr.12605

Objective: Discover to what extent the cholinergic versus non‐cholinergic basal forebrain projection neurones contribute to the arousing action of glutamate.

Summary: Destruction of the basal forebrain cholinergic neurons did not abolish the wake‐enhancing action of NMDA. Thus, the cholinergic basal forebrain structures are not essential for the mediation of the arousing action of glutamate.

Usage: 0.23 μg 192 IgG‐SAP was administered into the basal forebrain.
