cAMP Response Element-Binding Protein Is Required for Dopamine-Dependent Gene Expression in the Intact But Not the Dopamine-Denervated Striatum
15 Dec 2001
Abstract excerpt
The cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) is believed to play a pivotal role in dopamine (DA) receptor-mediated nuclear signaling and neuroplasticity. Here we demonstrate that the significance of CREB for gene expression depends on the experimental paradigm. We compared the role of CREB in two different but related models: l-DOPA administration to unilaterally 6-hydroxydopamine lesioned rats, and cocaine...
