Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter that plays a key role in brain and muscle function. Here, we look at what acetylcholine does and describe medical conditions linked with it, including Alzheimer ...

As temperatures rise, so does the risk of heat-related illness – especially for people taking certain prescription drugs.

Dr. Arun L. Naik highlights the importance of acetylcholine for memory and focus. He suggests boosting it naturally through ...

Acetylcholine plays a vital role as a neurotransmitter that oversees cognitive tasks, memory, and the regulation of mood. With aging, our body’s generation of acetylcholine decreases, which ...

Anticholinergic drugs work by blocking a chemical in the body called acetylcholine. This chemical is important for several ...

The acetylcholine you do have is gradually broken down as it gets used. Cholinesterase inhibitors slow this process. That makes more of the chemical available to your brain for as long as possible.

Autoantibodies specific for nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the autonomic ganglia are potentially pathogenic and may serve as serologic markers of various forms of autoimmune autonomic ...

Anticholinergic drugs inhibit acetylcholine, which could create an effect similar to the acetylcholine decline associated with Alzheimer's. Further research and testing are needed.

In this phase 3, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, we enrolled participants with myasthenia gravis who had anti–acetylcholine receptor antibodies or anti–muscle-specific ...

Karolinska Institutet researchers identified dopamine-acetylcholine disruptions in the basal ganglia as key contributors to autism-related behavioral inflexibility. Using advanced techniques like ...
