Activation of M1 cholinergic receptors in mouse somatosensory cortex enhances information processing and detection behaviour

Abstract To optimise sensory representations based on environmental demands, the activity of cortical neurons is regulated by neuromodulators such as Acetylcholine (ACh). ACh is implicated in cognitive functions including attention, arousal and sleep cycles. However, it is not clear how specific ACh...
