Proliferation of Inhibitory Input to the Substantia Nigra in Experimental Parkinsonism

Proliferation of Inhibitory Input to the Substantia Nigra in Experimental Parkinsonism

The substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr) is one of the output nuclei of the basal ganglia (BG) and plays a vital role in movement execution. Death of dopaminergic neurons in the neighboring nucleus, the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc), leads to Parkinson's disease. The ensuing dopamine d...
