## Abstract The motor disturbances occurring in Parkinson's disease have been partially attributed to a hyperactivity of Ξ³βaminobutyric acid (GABA) βergic nigral cells largely in the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr) secondary to the degeneration of dopaminergic nigrostriatal neurons. However,

The spontaneous activity and the response to intrastriatal application of apomorphine of substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNpr) single units was studied in four experimental groups of rats: (1) normal rats; (2) subthalamic nucleus (STN) lesioned rats; (3) rats bearing a 6-hydroxydopamine (6OHDA) le
Apomorphine-induced yawning was studied in male rats with bilateral 6-hydroxydopamine lesions of the substantia nigra. Apomorphine 10, 20 and 50 lag/kg SC induced dose-dependent yawning in unoperated controls and animals with sham lesions. In the lesioned animals (in which the mean striatal dopamine
The effects of bath-applied glycine to substantia nigra zona compacta neurons of rat were investigated by intracellular recording techniques in vitro. Superfusion of glycine (1 mM) in the medium hyperpolarized 53% of the neurons recorded with KC1 electrodes, whereas 32% of the cells were depolarized
