Increased electrical and metabolic activity in the dorsal raphe nucleus of Parkinsonian rats.

Serotonin (5-HT) containing neurons in the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) may play important roles in Parkinson's disease (PD). This study investigated neural and metabolic activity of the DRN in animal PD models based on dopamine depletion. The data show both increased firing rate of DRN 5-HT neur...
