Research News and Information

Definition of 'Corpus Striatum'

Striped gray and white matter consisting of the NEOSTRIATUM and paleostriatum (GLOBUS PALLIDUS). It is located in front of and lateral to the thalamus in each cerebral hemisphere. The gray substance is made up of the CAUDATE NUCLEUS and the lentiform nucleus (the latter consisting of the GLOBUS PALLIDUS and PUTAMEN). The white matter is the internal capsule.

Common names: Corpus Striatum; Striatum, Corpus; Lenticular Nucleus; Nucleus, Lenticular; Nucleus Lentiformis; Lentiformis, Nucleus; Lentiform Nucleus; Nucleus, Lentiform

Neurosphere cell differentiation to aldynoglia promoted by olfactory ensheathing cell conditioned medium.

29 Sep 2009 Cells from central nervous system with morphology similar to radial glia and properties intermediate between astrocytes and Schwann cells were called growth-promoting glia or aldynoglia. These cells are present in adult brain olfactory bulb, ... Read more...


Role of GABA transporter 3 in GABAergic synaptic transmission at striatal output neurons.

29 Sep 2009 Striatal GABAergic signaling has been shown to be essential for basal ganglia output and proper motor performance. In the mouse neostriatum GABA transporter 1 (GAT-1) was previously found to assist in the clearance of GABA from the extracellular ... Read more...


N-type calcium channels mediate a GABA(B) presynaptic modulation in the corticostriatal synapse in turtle's paleostriatum augmentatum.

29 Sep 2009 Spikes population evoked by a paired pulse protocol were used to assess the influence of GABA(A) and GABA(B) receptors agonists and antagonists on the synaptic potentials and in the S2/S1 ratio in a paired pulse (PP) protocol in the ... Read more...
