A striped mass of white and grey matter located in front of the thalamus in each cerebral hemisphere; consists of the caudate nucleus and the lenticular nucleus.
Anxiety was associated with striatum only in left limb dominantly affected PD.
2
Dopamine in the striatum is known to be important for reversal learning.
3
These factors undoubtedly can serve to enhance the functions of the striatum.
4
The highest uptake was in the amygdala, followed by striatum and hippocampus.
5
Fructose increased connectivity between the hypothalamus and thalamus but not the striatum.
1
Huntington's disease is characterized by highly selective and profound damage to the corpusstriatum, which regulates motor function.
2
RNase protection assay revealed about a 1.5-fold increase in the D2 dopamine receptor mRNA level in the corpusstriatum.
3
At E15-E19, the majority of cells in the plate stain, with their processes extending through the corpusstriatum to the thalamus.
4
Medium sized-spiny neurons (MSNs) in the corpusstriatum are highly vulnerable to mHtt aggregate accumulation and degeneration, but the mechanisms and pathways involved remain elusive.
