Murine thymus has been demonstrated to contain both cholinergic receptors and acetylcholinesterase activity. In the present study we have investigated the presence of the enzyme choline acetyltransferase in this organ, which is responsible for the synthesis of acetylcholine. Results reported here demonstrate that (1) an appreciable amount of the enzyme is already present in the thymus on the day of birth; (2) its expression is developmentally regulated; and (3) thymic atrophy, induced in young (2‐week‐old) and adult (6‐week‐old) mice by i.p. injection of hydrocortisone for 2 days, is accompanied by significant reduction of choline acetyltransferase activity only in young mice.
