Table 5.
Data from immunohistochemistry (mean ± SEM) for choline acetylransferase (number of cells), alpha7 nAChR (percent staining), and vAChT (percent staining) for animals used in microdialysis (Experiment 1). There were no significant differences between treatment groups in any measure of immunoreactivity.
