Double-labeling immunocytochemistry reactions were carried out in the monkey and the rat nucleus basalis of Meynert (NBM) to determine the extent of overlap between cholinergic neurons and neurons immunoreactive for calbindin-D-28k (CaBP), a Vitamin D-dependent calcium binding protein. The results indicate that most, but not all, NBM cholinergic neurons in the monkey are immunoreactive for CaBP. On the other hand, none of the rat NBM cholinergic neurons are immunoreactive for CaBP.
