Abstract:
Objective To identify the effects of the subthalamic nuclei(STN)high frequency stimulation(HFS)on striatal and nigral dopaminergic metabolism in rats.Methods The effects of subthalamie nuclei high frequency stimulation(STN-HFS)on striatal dopaminergie metabolism was investigated in free moving rats.Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)and Western blot of striatal and nigral tyrosine hydroxyiase(TH)were performed.Results Our data suggest that STN- HFS elevated TH protein(0.99?0.14 vs 0.33?0.08,P
