Acetylcholine content of different rat brain regions was measured. A correlation between acetylcholine content and cholineacetyltransferase (ChAc) activity in discrete brain regions was found. However there are regions such as cerebellar nuclei, cerebellar hemisphere, caudal medial forebrain bundle, zone incerta, nucleus vestibularis lateralis where the acetylcholine content is relatively much higher than the ChAc activity, and regions such as n.cochleares, n.motor n.V., N.motor N.VII., n.motor, n.XII where ChAc activity was high and the content of acetylcholine is relatively low.
