Brain acetylcholine and choline concentrations and dynamics in a murine model of the Fragile X syndrome: Age, sex and region-specific changes

Highlights • Endogenous ACh and Ch contents and dynamics were assessed in FMR1KO mice and WT controls. • ACh concentration and synthesis were similar for both mice lines in all regions studied. • ACh synthesis, and Ch uptake from blood decreased with age in WT mice. • The age dependence of Ch uptake...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Endogenous ACh and Ch contents and dynamics were assessed in FMR1KO mice and WT controls. • ACh concentration and synthesis were similar for both mice lines in all regions studied. • ACh synthesis, and Ch uptake from blood decreased with age in WT mice. • The age dependence of Ch uptake from blood was absent in FMR1KO mice. • An increase in Ch uptake from blood was found in the cerebral cortex of FMR1KO female mice.
