Neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor subunits in autism: an immunohistochemical investigation in the thalamus
The cholinergic system has been implicated in the development of autism on the basis of neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) losses in cerebral and cerebellar cortex. In the present study, the first to explore nAChRs in the thalamus in autism, α4, α7 and β2 nAChR subunit expression in t...
