Decreased pallidal vesicular monoamine transporter type 2 availability in Parkinson's disease: The contribution of the nigropallidal pathway

To date, the contribution of the nigropallidal pathway degeneration to Parkinson's disease (PD) motor symptoms has received little attention and is generally poorly understood in spite of solid evidence that the globus pallidus (GP) receives a dense neuronal projection from the substantia nigra...
