The Distribution and Morphological Characteristics of Cholinergic Cells in the Brain of Monotremes as Revealed by ChAT Immunohistochemistry

The present study employs choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) immunohistochemistry to identify the cholinergic neuronal population in the central nervous system of the monotremes. Two of the three extant species of monotreme were studied: the platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) and the short-beaked ech...
