摘要: This chapter reviews the evidences that support use of therapies targeting cholinergic system. There are several lines suggest a critical role mechanisms involved in Alzheimer's Disease (AD). The conceptualization treatments for AD is accordance with preclinical and basic science findings. Usually, innervations neurotransmission pivotal effective execution complex cognitive tasks. At same time, different deficits can be effectively restored agents. Experimentations cholinergic-rich fetal tissue transplants acetylcholine restoring learning memory by following basal forebrain damage. also discusses fact brains demonstrate no change or an increased number muscarinic receptors, as well decreased high affinity nicotinic receptors. Significant correlation usually exists between severity dementia. All these findings potential therapeutic value agents enhance upgrade AD.
