image: Basal ganglia axons (green) in lateral habenula that co-express markers of inhibitory (GAD; blue) and excitatory (Vglut2; red) transmission. Basal ganglia synaptic terminals that co-express GAD and Vglut2 are white. This material relates to a paper that appeared in the 19 Sept., issue of Science, published by AAAS. The paper, by S.J. Shabel at University of California, San Diego in San Diego, CA , and colleagues was titled, "GABA/glutamate co-release controls habenula output and is modified by antidepressant treatment." view more
