Striatal plasticity and basal ganglia circuit function (2008, background): “…nucleus is the striatum, which receives excitatory afferents from the cortex and thalamus, as well as dense innervation from midbrain dopamine neurons, and represents a major site of synaptic plasticity in the basal ganglia (Bolam et al., 2000; Gerdeman et al., 2003; Gerfen, 2000; Wilson, 1998).”
Computational models of basal-ganglia pathway functions: focus on functional neuroanatomy (2013, background): “Most of these models assume FIGURE 1 | Sketch of cortico-BG-thalamic ﬁber tracts and their subdivision into direct, indirect and hyperdirect BG pathways (cf. Bolam et al., 2000).”
Deep brain stimulation. (2006, neutral): “…of the cerebral cortex (Monakow et al. 1978, Rouzaire-Dubois & Scarnati 1987), GABAergic inhibitory afferents from the globus pallidus external segment (Bolam et al. 2000, Rouzaire-Dubois et al. 1980), and excitatory afferents from the parafascicular nucleus of the thalamus (Mouroux & Feger 1993).”
Selective elimination of glutamatergic synapses on striatopallidal neurons in Parkinson disease models (2006, background): “Striatonigral and striatopallidal neurons are similar in number and are indistinguishable in size, shape and basic physiological propertie”
Modulation of striatal projection systems by dopamine (2011, neutral): “A cardinal feature of the striatum – the principal of cortical and thalamic information reaching the basal ganglia –is its dense DA innervation, which arises from the midbrain nigrostriatal pathway (Bolam et al., 2000).”
Pathological synchronization in Parkinson's disease: networks, models and treatments. (2007, background): “The striatum is the main input nucleus of the basal ganglia as it receives glutamatergic cortical inputs from all functional subdivisions of the neocortex [1, 2 ].”
Information processing, dimensionality reduction and reinforcement learning in the basal ganglia. (2003, background): “Another type of striatal interneuron is the parvalbumin-positive GABAergic fast spiking interneuron (Bolam et al., 2000) which represent about 3–5% of the striatal neuronal population.”
A Single-Cell Atlas of Cell Types, States, and Other Transcriptional Patterns from Nine Regions of the Adult Mouse Brain (2018, background): “While neuron types in the striatum have received most attention, decades of in vivo and in vitro electrophysiological recordings in other basal ganglia nuclei have documented extensive neuronal diversity – yet the anatomical complexity of these regions has made identifying neuron types challenging a”
