In the hippocampus GABAergic local circuit inhibitory interneurons represent only~ 10–15%
of the total neuronal population; however, their remarkable anatomical and physiological …

The dopaminergic system plays a pivotal role in the central nervous system via its five
diverse receptors (D1–D5). Dysfunction of dopaminergic system is implicated in many …

Dopamine is an important neuromodulator that exerts widespread effects on the central
nervous system (CNS) function. Disruption in dopaminergic neurotransmission can have …

It is only recently that a number of studies on synaptic plasticity in the hippocampus and
other brain areas have considered that a heterosynaptic modulatory input could be recruited …

Dopamine is an important neurotransmitter involved in motor control, endocrine function,
reward, cognition and emotion. Dopamine receptors belong to the superfamily of G protein …

The prefrontal cortex (PFC) has long been known to be involved in the mediation of complex
behavioral responses. Considerable research efforts are directed towards refining the …

The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is a persistent obstacle for the local delivery of
macromolecular therapeutic agents to the central nervous system (CNS). Many drugs that …

Postnatal development of dopamine D1, D2 and D4 receptors in the caudate–putamen,

The dopaminergic nigropallidal and nigrosubthalamic projections control the activity of the
globus pallidus and subthalamic nucleus neurons in both normal and pathological …

The hypothalamo-neurohypophysial system (HNS) is the major peptidergic neurosecretory
