Abstract
Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)-mRNA, assayed by in situ hybridization combined with TH immunocytochemistry, showed a selective increase in the ventral tegmental area (A-10) but not in the substantia nigra (A-9) midbrain dopaminergic (DAergic) neurons 3 days after reserpine treatment. TH-mRNA in locus ceruleus noradrenergic (A-4) neurons was increased by reserpine, as confirmed by RNA blot hybridization. These findings show that TH-mRNA is differentially regulated in midbrain DAergic neurons in response to reserpine.Entities:
