Possible role of acetylcholine in regulating spatial novelty effects on theta rhythm and grid cells
Pharmacological and lesion data indicate that acetylcholine plays an important role in memory formation. Increased levels of acetylcholine in the hippocampal formation are associated with successful encoding while disruption of the cholinergic system leads to impairments on a range of mnemonic tasks...
