## Abstract GLU is the main neurotransmitter in the brain, where it induces a synaptic excitatory action. There is recent evidence for an extracellular nonsynaptic GLU (EnSβGLU) pool in different brain nuclei that, released from glial cells, may act on extrasynaptic GLU receptors of cells located f
Previous electrophysiological experiments have emphasized the importance of the firing pattern for the functioning of midbrain dopamine (DA) neurons. In this regard, excitatory amino acid receptors appear to constitute an important modulatory control mechanism. In the present study, extracellular re
The present study examined the effects of the antiparkinsonian drug budipine on dopamine synthesis and release from L-DOPA in the substantia nigra of reserpine-treated rats. Budipine (at 100 microM, but not 10 microM) applied by reverse dialysis to the nigra caused a small and significant rise in do
## Abstract The observation of prolactin modulation of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic system suggests the expression of prolactin receptor in the corpus striatum or substantia nigra. The present study investigated expression of prolactin receptor mRNA in tissues microdissected from the corpus stria
