For example, the neuropeptide GAL, which functions via the interaction with three G protein-coupled receptors termed GALR1, GALR2 and GALR3, has multiple biological actions, including effects on cognition and neuroplasticity [15,146,147]. In the late [148–150] but not early [151] stage of AD, fibers within the basal forebrain containing the neuropeptide GAL thicken and hyperinnervate surviving CBF neurons. Although animal and cell-culture studies have shown that GAL plays a crucial role in the regulation of CBF neuron activity [152] and rescues cholinergic cells from amyloid toxicity [153], the molecular consequences of this unique plasticity response upon CBF neurons in AD remain unclear. Gene expression studies of cholinergic transcripts have shown that GAL hyperinnervated, but not nonhyperinnervated, CBF neurons display an upregulation of ChAT expression in AD compared to controls [126] PubMed:18986241

CBF neurons displaying the tau C3 epitope, a marker for early stage NFT formation, were often hyperinnervated by GAL-containing fibers, whereas CBF neurons displaying the tau epitope MN423, an end-stage NFT marker, were not associated with GAL. Single cell gene expression studies have demonstrated that the levels of mRNAs encoding select subclasses of PP1 subunits (e.g., PP1alpha and PP1gamma) are stable in GAL hyperinnervated but downregulated in non-hyperinnervated CBF neurons in AD [149] PubMed:18986241
