The midbrain dopaminergic system: anatomy and genetic variation in dopamine neuron number of inbred mouse strains.

Behavior genetics - 1 Jan 2001

Zaborszky L, Vadasz C

Abstract excerpt

The mesotelencephalic dopamine system is genetically variable and affects motor behavior, motivation, and learning. Here we examine the genetic variation of mesencephalic DA neuron number in a quasi-congenic RQI mouse strain and its background partner and in a recombinant inbred strain with different levels of mesencephalic tyrosine hydroxylase activity (TH/MES). We used B6.Cb4i5-alpha6/Vad, C57BL/6By, and CXBI,...
