Synergistic effects of genetic variation in nicotinic and muscarinic receptors on visual attention but not working memory.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 3 Mar 2009

Abstract excerpt

It is widely appreciated that neurotransmission systems interact in their effects on human cognition, but those interactions have been little studied. We used genetics to investigate pharmacological evidence of synergisms in nicotinic/muscarinic interactions on cognition. We hypothesized that joi...
