The nucleus of Edinger-Westphal (EW), the parasympathetic component of the oculomotor
nuclear complex of the midbrain, controls several extraretinal ocular functions via its …

The circuitry of addiction comprises several neural networks including the midbrain-an
expansive region critically involved in the control of motivated behaviors. Midbrain nuclei …

The aim of the present study is to examine whether aromatic l-amino acid decar☐ ylase
(AADC) catalyzes the conversion of exogenous l-3, 4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (l-DOPA) to …

A number of different neuroactive substances have been found in striatal projection neurons
and in fibers and terminals in their target areas, including substance P (SP), enkephalin …

Antisera to two putative neurotransmitters, luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH)
and molluscan cardioexcitatory tetrapeptide (H-Phe-Met-Arg-Phe-NH2; FMRF-amide), bind …

Immunohistochemical double-label techniques were used to study the localization of
DARPP-32, a phosphoprotein that is enriched in neurons possessing members of the D 1 …

Ligands that are highly specific for the mu, delta, and kappa opiate receptor binding sites in

We have examined the populations of neurons in the neostriatum of both rat and cat that are
immunoreactive for glutamate decarboxylase,[Leu] enkephalin,[Met] enkephalin and …

Neurotransmitters have been shown to coexist in cell bodies, but demonstrating their
coexistence within nerve fibers and terminals has been more difficult. However, two recent …
