This file encodes the article Activation of M1 and M4 muscarinic receptors as potential treatments for Alzheimer’s disease and schizophrenia by Choi et al, 2014

In brain slice electrophysiology studies, BQCA enhanced excitatory postsynaptic currents in medial prefrontal cortical neurons,69 an area critical for higher cognitive, learning, and memory functions.70 In pre-clinical animal studies, BQCA reversed scopolamine-impaired contextual fear conditioning and rescued medial prefrontal cortex-dependent discrimination reversal learning deficits in a transgenic mouse model of AD. PubMed:24511233

The gross pathological changes consist of brain atrophy, particularly in the hippocampal formation, temporal lobes and parietotemporal cortices, accompanied by cortical thinning, enlarged ventricles and white matter abnormalities, as evident on MRI. PubMed:26195256
