Neuronal Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors in the Brain

C Vidal and J-P Changeux

Recent molecular, immunologic, and physiological studies have revealed that wide variety of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors exist in the nervous system of vertebrates. Nicotinic systems in the brain appear to play significant roles in drug addiction and in cognitive functions, as well as in pathologies, such as Alzheimer's disease.
