Mouse Acetylcholine (ACH) ELISA Kit-Competitive

Acetylcholine plays a vital role in cognitive regulation within the central nervous system, influencing attention, memory encoding, integration, and retrieval. Studies indicate that acetylcholine affects cognitive functions through specific cholinergic receptors, such as M1 and M2 receptors. In the hippocampus, for example, acetylcholine regulates AChE activity to maintain accurate neurotransmission, thereby impacting learning and memory capabilities. Additionally, a deficiency in acetylcholine is linked to cognitive disorders like Alzheimer's disease, highlighting its potential role in neurodegenerative conditions. In mice, acetylcholine also transmits signals at neuromuscular junctions to control muscle contraction. The activity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) directly affects muscle motor function, with increases or decreases in AChE activity leading to abnormal muscle performance.
