Abstract :

Acetylcholine is one of the major modulators of brain functions and it is the main neurotransmitter at the peripheral nervous system. Modulation of acetylcholine release is crucial for nervous system function. Moreover, dysfunction of cholinergic transmission has been linked to a number of pathological conditions. In this manuscript, we review the cellular mechanisms involved with regulation of acetylcholine synthesis and storage. We focus on how phosphorylation of key cholinergic proteins can participate in the physiological regulation of cholinergic nerve-endings.
