  4. [Jing2020] paper:paper-e6afd02e6629 “The development of genetically encoded ACh sensors has enabled direct measurement of cholinergic dynamics during behavior. [Neyhart2023] demonstrated that GRAB-ACh sensor fluorescence in cortex is highly correlated with basal forebrain axon calcium activity and can be accurately predicted from axonal signals alone, providing the first validation that neuromodulator axon activity serves as a reliable proxy for nearby...”
  5. [Ren2022] paper:paper-230207e51d3b “The functional consequences of cortical ACh extend well beyond simple desynchronization. ACh globally modulates cortical inhibitory neuron subtypes during locomotion, with distinct interneuron classes showing different activation patterns across multiple cortical regions simultaneously [Ren2022]. In visual cortex, cholinergic input signals movement state and acutely enhances layer 5 responses [Yogesh2024], consisten...”

  10. [Chakraborty2024b] paper:paper-85889a6e9e97 “Human PET imaging has revealed that cortical cholinergic innervation is not uniform but disproportionately targets the midcingulo-insular network relevant to salience processing [Chakraborty2024b]. This preferential innervation of attentional networks suggests that the "brain-wide" reach of the cholinergic system is in fact structured to prioritize circuits involved in detecting behaviorally relevant stimuli.”
  11. [MirzaAgha2021] paper:paper-84898876eed9 “The clinical relevance of cortical cholinergic modulation is supported by several lines of evidence. Nucleus basalis cholinergic stimulation improves motor but not sensory recovery after photothrombotic stroke in mice [MirzaAgha2021], suggesting that ACh's therapeutic effects may be domain-specific rather than globally facilitative. NBM cholinergic neurons also modulate chronic pain-like behavior via regulation of n...”

  16. [Holschneider1999] paper:paper-355a830753c3 “A cautionary note comes from early lesion studies. Selective cholinergic immunotoxin (192 IgG-saporin) lesions of the basal forebrain produce changes in electrocortical power and coherence that may not entirely reflect the loss of cholinergic neurons per se [Holschneider1999], since the toxin also damages non-cholinergic neurons expressing p75 receptors. This methodological concern applies to much of the older lesio...”

[Mukhtar2025] paper:paper-65aac387f81a “Beyond the adult cortex, α7 nicotinic ACh receptors regulate radial glia fate in developing human cortex, and prenatal nicotine exposure impairs fetal cortical development [Mukhtar2025] — a finding with direct implications for understanding developmental consequences of nicotine exposure.”
  18. [Apartis1998] paper:paper-fecc55f0a0e1 “The septohippocampal cholinergic pathway has long been considered central to hippocampal theta oscillations and memory function. The evidence for a direct cholinergic contribution to theta generation comes in part from lesion studies.

  22. [Pirazzini2025] paper:paper-651dfc808ae7 “The influential encoding/retrieval switching model proposes that ACh levels set hippocampal mode: high ACh during encoding (suppressing CA3 recurrent connections to favor new input) and low ACh during retrieval (permitting pattern completion). A computational implementation of this model by [Pirazzini2025] supports the hypothesis that ACh can orchestrate encoding and retrieval at different phases of the theta cycle...”

Males show impaired hippocampal-dependent learning after early-life seizures compared to females, an effect linked to sex differences in cholinergic signaling affecting theta-gamma coordination [Kloc2024].
