Dopaminergic modulation of corticostriatal responses in medium spiny projection neurons from direct and indirect pathways

Dopaminergic modulation of corticostriatal responses in medium spiny projection neurons from direct and indirect pathways

Suprathreshold corticostriatal responses recorded from medium spiny neurons (MSNs) from the direct and indirect pathways of the basal ganglia are different. Their differences readily distinguish D1- and D2-type receptor expressing MSNs in both BAC-transgenic mice and their control littermates as wel...
