In situ hybridization was used to study dopamine D2 receptor (D2R) and choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) mRNA expression in neurons of the rat forebrain, both on control animals and after a unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) lesion of midbrain dopamine neurons. D2R mRNA expressing neurons were see
Androgens and estrogens are crucial for the differentiation and function of the vocal control system of songbirds. A major source of estrogens in songbirds is the cerebral aromatization of circulating testosterone by aromatase (ARO). In the vocal control system, songbirds have a unique estrogen rece
Previous results from our laboratory showed that monkey amniotic epithelial cells (MAEC) possess the catecholamine synthesizing enzymes and have the capacity to synthesize and release CA. Recently, we also reported that these cells express dopamine D 1 receptor mRNA and binding sites. This study was
