Iontophoretic Studies on Pallidal Neurones and the Projection From the Subthalamic Nucleus

Abstract: SUMMARYThe predominant response of pallidal neurones to y-aminobutyric acid (GABA), glycine and dopamine when applied iontophoretically, was inhibition of firing rate. With dopamine some excitatory responses were observed, this never being the case with GABA or glycine. Picrotoxin reversibly blocked neuronal responses to GABA but not glycine in fourteen cases. Strychnine abolished glycine evoked inhibitions in seventeen cells while not affecting GABA responses. A number of cells were responsive to a stimulus d… Show more

“…Labeling of nigral neurons by retrograde transport agents injected into the globus pallidus has been reported, but this could result from retrograde transport in axons of passage injured by the injection (Kristensson and Olson, 1976;Hedreen and McGrath, 1977;Oldfield and McLachlan, 1977). Electrophysiological effects of locally applied dopaminergic agents on pallidal neurons have been described in rat brain (Bottger and Schmidt, 1980;Huffman and Felpel, 1981;Perkins and Stone, 1981;Bergstrom and Walters, 1984;Nakanishi et al, 1985;Napier et al, 1991Napier et al, , 1994Kelland et al, 1995;Johnson and Napier, 1997), but these might reflect at least partly presynaptic effects (Floran et al, 1990(Floran et al, , 1997.…”
