FIGURE 5.
Morpho-functional correlation between amphetamine-induced rotations and dopaminergic neurons in SN in addition to dopaminergic terminals in both striatum and SN after 6-OHDA administration. (A) Amphetamine-induced IL rotations correlate negatively with the % of TH-ir striatal volume IL, (B) also with the % of TH-ir neuronal density and (C) with the % of TH-ir ADN density. Significance. p < 0.05, IL rotations vs. TH-ir neurons. SN, substantia nigra; 6-OHDA, 6-hydroxydopamine; TH-ir, tyrosine hydroxylase immunoreactivity; IL, ipsilateral.
