The brain neuronal systems defined by the neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) have since long
a recognized role in the regulation of motor functions. More recently, converging evidence …

Until recently, views on the organization and role of the mesotelencephalic dopaminergic
(DA) systems were mostly based on studies of rodents, and it was assumed that homology …
