The axonal arbors of single nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons were visualized with a viral
vector expressing membrane-targeted green fluorescent protein in rat brain. All eight …

Different striatal projection neurons are the origin of a dual organization essential for basal
ganglia function. We have defined an analogous division of labor in the external globus …

Adult mammalian neurogenesis occurs in the hippocampus and the olfactory bulb, whereas
neocortical adult neurogenesis remains controversial. Several occurrences of neocortical …

The rat neostriatum has a mosaic organization composed of striosome/patch compartments
embedded in a more extensive matrix compartment, which are distinguished from each other …

The axonal arborization of single motor thalamic neurons was examined in rat brain using a
viral vector expressing membrane-targeted palmitoylation site-attached green fluorescent …

We previously reported that about 80% of vesicular glutamate transporter 3 (VGLUT3)‐positive
cells displayed immunoreactivity for serotonin, but the others were negative in the rat …

Studies in dopamine-depleted rats indicate that the external globus pallidus (GPe) contains
two main types of GABAergic projection cell; so-called “prototypic” and “arkypallidal” neurons…

In the brain, glycogen metabolism has been implied in synaptic plasticity and learning, yet
the distribution of this molecule has not been fully described. We investigated cerebral …

Motor thalamic nuclei, ventral anterior (VA), ventral lateral (VL) and ventral medial (VM) nuclei,
receive massive glutamatergic and GABAergic afferents from the cerebellum and basal …

Classical schemes of basal ganglia organization posit that parkinsonian movement difficulties
presenting after striatal dopamine depletion stem from the disproportionate firing rates of …
