Abstract
Regional distribution of choline acetyltransferase (CAT) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in seventeen regions of the rabbit CNS has been determined by means of the cation exchange radiometric method. A significant correlation has been found between the activities of AChE and CAT which allows computation of their potencies. A comparison between activities of the cholinergic enzymes in the human and rabbit brain has been discussed.Keywords
