Alterations in Cortical and Basal Ganglia Levels of Opioid Receptor Binding in a Rat Model of l-DOPA-Induced Dyskinesia
Opioid receptor-binding autoradiography was used as a way to map sites of altered opioid transmission in a rat model of l-DOPA-induced dyskinesia. Rats with unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine lesions of the nigrostriatal pathways sustained a 3-week treatment with l-DOPA (6 mg/kg/day, combined with 12 mg/k...
