Abstract
The source of cholinergic input to ferret visual cortex was investigated with a combination of retrograde transport of horseradish peroxidase and choline acetyltransferase immunohistochemistry. Cholinergic projections to ferret visual cortex arise from basal forebrain cells in the septum, diagonal and nucleus basalis magnocellularis; the largest contribution comes from cells in the caudal part of the nucleus basalis magnocellularis. There is no discernible source in the brainstem.
