The basal ganglia (BG) are a highly organized network, where different parts are activated for specific functions and circumstances. The BG are involved in movement control, as well as associative learning, planning, working memory, and emotion. We concentrate on the ''motor circuit'' because it is

Central to surgical management of movement disorders is an understanding of the anatomy and physiology of the basal ganglia. The basal ganglia have been a target for neuromodulation surgery since Russell Meyers' pioneering works in the late 1930s. With the development of deep brain stimulation as th
## Abstract At least five receptors for dopamine (D~1~βD~5~) have been recognised from molecular biological studies, and their pharmacological properties and brain localisations have been determined. The D~1~ and D~2~ subtypes are the principal subtypes in brain, and their cellular localisations in
## Abstract A bilateral compensatory increase of basal ganglia (BG) gray matter value (GMV) was recently demonstrated in asymptomatic __Parkin__ mutation carriers, who likely have an increased risk to develop Parkinson's disease (PD). We hypothesized BG morphological changes in symptomatic __Parkin
