Abstract: We performed optogenetic inactivation of rats' entopeduncular nucleus (EP, homologous to primates' globus pallidus interna (GPi)) and investigated the therapeutic effect in a rat model of PD. 6-Hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-induced hemiparkinsonian rats were injected with either… read more here.
