    Electrophysiological Consequences of D2 and/or D3 Receptor Knockout by Antisense Oligonucleotides in Nigrostriatal Dopaminergic Neurons

    Mesencephalic dopaminergic neurons possess receptors for their own neurotransmitter, dopamine, at both somatodendritic as well as axon terminal regions. These receptors are termed autoreceptors and act to modu...
