The cholinergic deficit in Alzheimer's disease
J Clin Psychiatry.
1998.
Abstract
The history of the discovery of cholinergic deficit in Alzheimer's disease is briefly reviewed, focusing on the cholinergic basal forebrain. The anatomy of the structure is discussed, and the clinical implications of pathology in this population of nerve cells are presented.
