Differential activation states of direct pathway striatal output neurons associated with the development of L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia.

David A. Figge, Henrique de Amaral Oliveira, Jack Crim…·Karen L. Eskow Jaunarajs

This study identifies differential activation states of D1-MSN subpopulations in response to L-DOPA treatment and links these changes to LID development through activin/TGFβ signaling.
