• Sommario/riassunto: An exploration of the nature of dopamine-glutamate interactions in the basal ganglia from receptor molecules to complex behaviors, this volume reviews basic anatomy, discusses the subtypes and signaling ; pathways of the dopamine and glutamate receptors expressed in the basal ganglia, and their interaction down to the molecular level. Coverage includes endogenous and exogenous modulators of dopamine-glutamate interactions and the implications of these interactions, measuring the key basal ganglia functions at the physiological and behavioral level. It also examines the concept that compromised dopamine-glutamate interactions may underpin basal ganglia disorders--Provided by publisher.
