Relationship between the residual effects of disorders in the cholinergic system and the activities of the cardiac, respiratory, and somatomotor systems of 1- and 16-day-old rats were studied. Experiments were carried out on intact conscious rats before and after drug injection (nicotinic cholinoreceptor blocker benzohexonium). In order to increase the level of cholinoreactive structure activation, acetylcholinesterase inhibition by eserine was carried out. Injection of benzohexonium caused rarefaction of HR, respiration rate, and a decrease of motor activity parameters in rats of both age groups. Injection of eserine after cholinolytic premedication led to further rarefaction of the respiration rate and HR. The reaction of the somatosensory system to changed level of cholinoreactive structure activation was age-specific. Motor activity increased in 1-day-old rats and was depressed significantly in 16-day-old ones.

On newborn non-narcotized 1-day-old (P1) and 16-day-old (P16) rats, a detailed analysis of intersystem somatovisceral interactions (ISI) mediated by decasecond (D1, 5-50 sec) range modulating rhythms was performed. Correlation interactions of the main body systems - cardiovascular, respiratory and somatomotor systems in norm and under conditions of changes in the level of cholinergic regulation were studied. Spectral correlation analysis was used to determine the participation of D1 range modulating rhythms in ISI.

The effects of intramuscular administration of neostigmine and physostigmine on Na,K-ATPase activity in various cerebral subdivisions were examined in rats. In CNS and peripheral tissues, both agents rapidly and significantly reduced activity of cholinesterases by 30-50%. The development of intoxication did not change the marker indices of stress reaction.

Hypothermic responses accompany motion sickness in humans and can be elicited by provocative motion in rats. We aimed to determine the potential role in these responses of the efferent cholinergic vestibular innervation. To this end, we used knockout (KO) mice lacking α9 cholinoreceptor subunit predominantly expressed in the vestibular hair cells and CBA strain as a wild-type (WT) control.

Experiments on frog neuromuscular junctions have demonstrated that asynchrony of the acetylcholine quantal release forming the multi-quantal evoked response at high-frequency synaptic activity is caused, in particular, by a decrease in velocity of the action potential propagation along the non-myelinated nerve endings, which is mediated by activation of the α7 and α4β4 nicotinic cholinoreceptors.
