Subregion and sex differences in ethanol activation of cholinergic and glutamatergic cells in the mesopontine tegmentum

Abstract Ethanol engages cholinergic signaling and elicits endogenous acetylcholine release. Acetylcholine input to the midbrain originates from the mesopontine tegmentum (MPT), which is composed of the laterodorsal tegmentum (LDT) and the pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus (PPN). We investigated th...
