Calbindin-D28K limits dopamine release in ventral but not dorsal striatum by regulating Ca2+ availability and dopamine transporter function
The calcium-binding protein calbindin-D28K, or calb1, is expressed at higher levels by dopamine (DA) neurons originating in ventral tegmental area (VTA) than in adjacent substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc). Calb1 has received attention for a potential role in neuroprotection in Parkinson’s disease....
