Membrane properties of striatal direct and indirect pathway neurons in mouse and rat slices and their modulation by dopamine.

D1 and D2 receptor expressing striatal medium spiny neurons (MSNs) are ascribed to striatonigral ("direct") and striatopallidal ("indirect") pathways, respectively, that are believed to function antagonistically in motor control. Glutamatergic synaptic transmission onto the two t...
