  • Title: Immunohistochemical staining of cholinergic neurons in the human brain using a polyclonal antibody to human choline acetyltransferase.
    Author: German DC, Bruce G, Hersh LB.
    Journal: Neurosci Lett; 1985 Oct 24; 61(1-2):1-5. PubMed ID: 3908999.
    Abstract:
    Antibodies against human placental choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) were used to immunohistochemically stain cholinergic neurons in the neostriatum and nucleus basalis of Meynert in human brain. Cells in both regions were intensely stained as were nerve fibers. Comparable cells were stained in these same brain regions in the rat. This anti-human ChAT antibody will enable the further detailed characterization of cholinergic neurons in the human brain in both health and disease.
