corpus striatum

The white matter of the corpus striatum is a bottleneck.

The region including the two nuclei is therefore called the corpus striatum.

He did major research on the anatomy and disorders of the corpus striatum and the extrapyramidal system.

Soon it would be discovered that the theory about the corpus striatum would not be completely incorrect.

There is another indirect pathway present between the corpus striatum and part of the globus pallidus.

The corpus striatum, which consists of the caudate and lenticular nuclei, gives this artery its name.

Medium spiny neurons, most neurons in the corpus striatum.

The putamen and caudate nucleus are also collectively called the corpus striatum after their striped appearance.

(c) the inferior striate veins, which leave the corpus striatum through the anterior perforated substance.

Dopamine serves as a chemical messenger allowing communication between the substantia nigra and another area of the brain called the corpus striatum.

In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, the term "corpus striatum" was used to designate many distinct, deep, infracortical elements of the hemisphere.

They concluded that "dopamine is concerned with the function of the corpus striatum and thus with the control of motor function".

For many years, the term corpus striatum was used to describe a large group of subcortical elements, some of which were later discovered to be functionally unrelated.

In a study on slices of rat corpus striatum and substantia nigra fencamfamine acted as an indirect dopamine agonist.

The IP 3 R is particularly plentiful in the cerebellum, hippocampus, cerebral cortex, corpus striatum and olfactory tubercule.

The corpus striatum - consisting of nucleus caudatus, putamen, and nucleus accumbens - is the main input station of the basal ganglia.

The fibers of the anterior commissure can be traced laterally and posteriorly on either side beneath the corpus striatum into the substance of the temporal lobe.

The most ancient of them surrounds the midbrain (and is made up mostly of what neuroanatomists call the olfactostriatum, the corpus striatum, and the globus pallidus).

The view that the corpus striatum played such a large role in motor functions was the most prominent one until the 19th century when electrophysiologic stimulation studies began to be performed.

With the help of a new instrument for measuring dopamine, he found it was present in high concentration in the corpus striatum, a part of the brain that regulates movement.

Dopamine binds to G-protein-coupled receptors in many areas of the brain, especially the corpus striatum where it mediates the synaptic transmission that underlies the coordination of body movements.

For example, the nigrostriatal pathway, which is degenerated in Parkinson's disease, runs from the substantia nigra (Latin, "black substance") to the corpus striatum (Latin, "striped body").

Its gray substance is confluent above with that of the corpus striatum, and is perforated anteriorly by numerous small blood vessels that supply such areas as the internal capsule.

The term neostriatum was forged by comparative anatomists comparing the subcortical structures between vertebrates, because it was thought to be a phylogenetically newer section of the corpus striatum.

In this book, he described the pineal gland and what he believed the function was, and was able to draw the corpus striatum which is made up of the basal ganglia and the internal capsule.
