Striatonigral Pathway (IMAGE)
Caption
In a recent study, Columbia researchers have investigated why dyskinesias occur in Parkinson's disease patients: they identified a major change in the function of striatonigral GABA synapses in the basal ganglia, a brain circuit that controls movement. Pictured here in green is the striatonigral pathway.
