## Abstract The loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra provokes a plasticity of corticostriatal synapses in Parkinson's disease (PD). The corticostriatal pathway nevertheless makes synapses with neurons bearing D1 dopamine receptors (D1R) and/or D2 dopamine receptors. At the ultrastru
Striatal dopamine D-1 receptor binding was investigated in vivo with positron emission tomography (PET) in five patients with early Parkinson's disease using ["CI-SCH 23390. All patients had predominantly unilateral symptoms and showed a significant reduction in the accumulation of ["F]-6-F-DOPA in
