## Abstract Nurr1 is a transcription factor essential for the genesis of ventral dopaminergic neurons. In this study, we investigated the expression of Nurr1 protein and mRNA in the adult rat brain by using immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization, respectively. Another aim of our study was t
In rats with a unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine lesion of the dopaminergic nigro-striatal pathway, striatal D,-receptor-stimulated c-fos expression and turning behavior are positively modulated by D, receptor stimulation and by blockade of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) or muscarinic receptors. Combined D1
Recent findings have demonstrated the existence of dopam~ nergic (DA) markers in the nbM of the human brain and a reduction of these markers in bDth the nbM and the striatum of patients suffering from Alzheimer's disease (AD). To investigate the source of the DA synaptic markers found in the nbM, ra
