Radioligand binding studies in animals have demonstrated age-related loss of dopamine receptors in the caudate and putamen. In humans, while age-related declines in dopamine D2 receptors have been consistently reported, the effects of ageing on D1 receptors have been controversial. We used positron
Ageing is a multifactorial, inevitable event of life span, which affects neurotransmission in the CNS. Since adenosine is a major neuromodulator of the synaptic activity, it was of interest to investigate the possible modification of the adenosinergic system in the brain during ageing. Using "in vit
