LITERATURE
analysis
-
real-time multiplex PCR technique can be carried out in a single tube and can differentiate between the polymorphic sites of the ChAT gene associated with Alzheimer’s disease
diagnostics
-
ChAT is selected as a marker of cholinergicneurons. In the CA1 region of hippocampus of mice, several of the insulin signaling-related proteins are co-located with ChAT, and most double immunoreactive positive cells are pyramidal cells
medicine
pharmacology
-
Nelumbo nucifera semen extract improves memory in rats with scopolamine-induced dementia through the induction of choline acetyltransferase expression and inhibition of acetylcholinesterase activity
