Environmental and behavioral modulation of the number of substantia nigra dopamine neurons in adult mice

Abstract: BackgroundRecent evidence indicates that hypothalamic neurons acquire or lose the capacity to synthesize and release dopamine (DA) in response to environmental stimuli, and this has functional and behavioral consequences for adult rats. We have evidence that neuronal activity, including that driven by afferent input, regulates acquisition and loss of the DA phenotype by substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) neurons in adult mice.Hypotheses The aims of the present study were to determine whether the environment … Show more

“…However, EE with GABA A receptor antagonist infusion (either 10 µM picrotoxin or 5 µM bicuculline) completely abolished this increase (right two columns in Figure 2). Note, these data are from the SNc contralateral to the infusion cannula, and are almost identical to the effects observed in the ipsilateral SNc which were reported in 6 . Figure 1: Effects of gender pairing on the number of SNc TH+ neurons.…”
