Stress-Induced Acetylcholine Signaling in Affective Behaviors: Too Much of a Good Thing?

Acetylcholine (ACh) transmission is critical for cognition and attention, but is also released in response to stress. Importantly, ACh levels are dysregulated in the brains of human depressed subjects. Using the example of ACh signaling in stress-relevant behaviors, this webinar will present data using genetically-encoded fluorescent ACh sensors, explore what we can conclude about human stress disorders from mouse models, and address the question of what a neuromodulator is in the context of classical neurotransmitter signaling.
