Striatal Direct Pathway Targets Npas1+ Pallidal Neurons
Qiaoling Cui, Xixun Du, Isaac Y. M. Chang…·C. Savio Chan
This study identifies that direct-pathway striatal projection neurons (dSPNs) target Npas1+ neurons in the external globus pallidus (GPe) and show that this projection suppresses movement, contributing to Parkinson's disease hypokinesia.
