Sexually dimorphic effects of hippocampal cholinergic deafferentation in rats.

Jonasson Z, Cahill JF, Tobey RE, Baxter MG (2004) Sexually dimorphic effects of hippocampal cholinergic deafferentation in rats. Eur J Neurosci 20(11):3041-3053. doi: 10.1111/j.1460-9568.2004.03739.x

Summary: Studies of cholinergic neuron lesions have been performed almost exclusively in male animals. In this work, the authors examined the differences of cholinergic lesions between males and females. Rats were treated with four injections totaling 0.15 µg of 192-Saporin (Cat. #IT-01) into the medial septum/vertical limb of the diagonal band. The results demonstrate differences in learning and memory processes between male and female rats.
