Abstract

In rats with extensive unilateral cortical damage, retrograde effects upon the cholinergic cells of the basal nucleus were observed. Cells of the basal nucleus stained immunocytochemically for choline acetyltransferase were shrunken and choline acetyltransferase enzymatic activity in that region was reduced. Both these effects could be prevented by the administration of the ganglioside GM 1.
