There is abundant evidence that Abeta also affects cholinergic signaling in the brain. Recent studies indicate that brain nAChRs are not only affected by Abeta but can also initiate signaling pathways that protect against Abeta toxicity (Kihara et al., 1997b; Takada et al., 2003; Arias et al., 2005; Akaike, 2006; Meunier et al., 2006; Dineley, 2007; Liu et al., 2007).
