## Abstract Huntington's disease (HD) is an autosomal dominantly inherited neurodegenerative disorder caused by a CAG repeat expansion in the __IT‐15__ gene; however, it remains unknown how the mutation leads to selective neurodegeneration.

## 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

We examined D 2 -dopamine receptor containing neurons in cultures of neonatal rat striatum for apoptosis following dopamine treatment. Exposure to cultures to micromolar concentrations of dopamine resulted in 60-70% killing of D 2 -dopamine receptor neurons within 24 hr. We also utilized a double la
