Abstract excerpt
During the pubertal period the mesocortical dopamine (DA) system undergoes substantial reorganization of neuronal connectivity and functional refinement. Netrins are guidance cues involved in the organization of neuronal circuitry. We have previously shown that adult mice that develop with reduced levels of the netrin-1 receptor [deleted in colorectal cancer (DCC)] display selective reorganization of mesocortical...
