State of the art on insect nicotinic acetylcholine receptor function in learning and memory.

Advances in experimental medicine and biology - 1 Jan 2010

Gauthier Monique

Abstract excerpt

Acetylcholine is the most abundant excitatory neurotransmitter in the insect brain and the most numerous acetylcholine receptors are the nicotinic ones (nAChRs). The genome sequencing of diverse insect species has demonstrated the existence of at least 10 nAChR genes coding for alpha and beta subunits, suggesting the existence in the insect CNS of several subtypes ofnAChRs whose molecular composition and...
