Activity-regulated phosphorylation of cAMP response element binding protein in the developing striatum: implications for patterning the neurochemical phenotypes of striatal compartments.

Abstract excerpt

A distinct feature of the striatum is that much of the expression of neurochemicals in this forebrain structure follows a compartmental (striosome/matrix) ordering. How this pattern of neurochemical compartmentation is developed and regulated is still unknown. In the present paper we propose that a key feature of this early striatal plasticity is differential control of the activation kinetics of the cAMP...
