## Abstract Muscarinic cholinergic Ml and M2 receptors in young and aged adult male volunteers were studied using [Nβ^11^Cβmethyl]βbenztropine, a specific muscarinic cholinergic receptor ligand, and high resolution positron emission tomography (PET). A regionally specific pattern of decreased bindi
