Describe how Acetylcholine (ACh) is synthesized stored, released, and binds to ionotropic and metabotropic receptors. How is ACh related to Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and how do the ACh-relevant anti-AD drugs work and describe one non-ACh based theory of AD development and outline how a related treatment works
