Circling behaviour in 6-hydroxydopamine-lesioned rats given pulsed levodopa is reduced more by lesions in the entopeduncular nucleus/substantia nigra pars reticulata than in the subthalamic nucleus
1998
Abstract Rats unilaterally lesioned with 6-hydroxydopamine to deplete striatal dopamine received daily injections of levodopa methyl ester in combination with benserazide. Delayed lesions in the subthalamic nucleus (Group 2) or entopeduncular nucleus and substantia nigra par reticulata (Group 3) were made, unilateral to the dopamine depletion. Apomorphine-induced rotation was significantly reduced in Group 2 versus sham-operated controls ( P P
