Cholinergic neurons within the nucleus basalis (NB) and the septal diagonal band complex provide the major source of cholinergic innervation to the cerebral cortex and hippocampus, respectively, and play a key role in memory and attentional function [11–13]. PubMed:18986241

In addition, indirect effects and unwanted side effects appeared with systemic administration including unregulated neurotransmitter release, hyperinnervation, sprouting of neurons, sympathetic stimulation, induction of antibodies, cachexia and hyperalgesia [178–181]. PubMed:18986241

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
