Primary culture of mouse dopaminergic neurons. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Visualized Experiments, 2014
Dopaminergic neurons represent less than 1% of the total number of neurons in the brain. This low amount of neurons regulates important brain functions such as motor control, motivation, and working memory.

Disinhibition Bursting of Dopaminergic Neurons [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2011
Substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) dopaminergic neurons receive strong tonic inputs from GABAergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNpr) and globus pallidus (GP), and glutamatergic neurons in the subthalamic nucleus.

Transcription Factor-Mediated Generation of Dopaminergic Neurons from Human iPSCs—A Comparison of Methods [PDF]

open access: yesCells
Dopaminergic neurons are the predominant brain cells affected in Parkinson’s disease. With the limited availability of live human brain dopaminergic neurons to study pathological mechanisms of Parkinson’s disease, dopaminergic neurons have been generated

Necrostatin-1 protection of dopaminergic neurons

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2015
Necroptosis is characterized by programmed necrotic cell death and autophagic activation and might be involved in the death process of dopaminergic neurons in Parkinson′s disease.

Physiological characterisation of human iPS-derived dopaminergic neurons.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) offer the potential to study otherwise inaccessible cell types. Critical to this is the directed differentiation of hiPSCs into functional cell lineages.

CALBINDIN CONTENT AND DIFFERENTIAL VULNERABILITY OF MIDBRAIN EFFERENT DOPAMINERGIC NEURONS IN MACAQUES

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2014
Calbindin (CB) is a calcium binding protein reported to protect dopaminergic neurons from degeneration. Although a direct link between CB content and differential vulnerability of dopaminergic neurons has long been accepted, factors other than CB have ...

Deficiency of orexin receptor type 1 in dopaminergic neurons increases novelty-induced locomotion and exploration [PDF]

open access: yeseLife
Orexin signaling in the ventral tegmental area and substantia nigra promotes locomotion and reward processing, but it is not clear whether dopaminergic neurons directly mediate these effects.

Spatial and temporal distribution of dopaminergic neurons during development in zebrafish

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2016
As one of the model organisms of Parkinson’s disease (PD) research, the zebrafish has its advantages, such as the 87% homology with human genome and transparent embryos which make it possible to observe the development of dopaminergic neurons in real ...

Calbindin and Girk2/Aldh1a1 define resilient vs vulnerable dopaminergic neurons in a primate Parkinson’s disease model [PDF]

open access: yesnpj Parkinson's Disease
The differential vulnerability of dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) is a critical and unresolved question in Parkinson´s disease.

Embryonic stem cells develop into functional dopaminergic neurons after transplantation in a Parkinson rat model

open access: greenProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2002
Although implantation of fetal dopamine (DA) neurons can reduce parkinsonism in patients, current methods are rudimentary, and a reliable donor cell source is lacking.
