Popis: Addition of acetylcholine to cultures of STN area's (5 steps of 10 uM with a step interval of 1000s) show a direct and longlasting reduction of STN activity. Low frequency stimulation (20 Hz, 500 block pulses) increases STN activity, while high frequency stimulation (80 Hz, 2000 block pulses) reduces STN activity, even after the stimulation period of 25 seconds.
