Rat neostriatum has been reported to contain two types of mGluR4-immunoreactive axon varicosities: small, weakly immunoreactive varicosities that were distributed randomly (type 1) and large, intensely immunoreactive ones that were often aligned linearly (type 2). In the present study, most type 1 terminals formed asymmetric synapses on dendritic spines, whereas type 2 terminals made symmetric synapses on dendritic shafts, showing immunoreactivity for GABAergic markers. After depletion of neostriatal neurons, type 2 but not type 1 varicosities were largely decreased in the damaged region. When medium-sized spiny neurons (MSNs) were labeled with Sindbis virus expressing membrane-targeted green fluorescent protein, mGluR4 immunoreactivity was observed on some varicosities of their axon collaterals in immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopies. Furthermore, type 2 varicosities were often positive for substance P but mostly negative for striatal interneuron markers and preproenkephalin. Thus, striatonigral/striato- entopeduncular MSNs are likely to be the largest source of type 2 mGluR4-immunopositive axon terminals in the neostriatum. Next, in the double-immunofluorescence study, almost all choline acetyltransferase (ChAT)-immunopositive and 41% of NK1 receptor-positive dendrites were heavily associated with type 2 mGluR4-immunoreactive varicosities. Neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS)-positive dendrites, in contrast, seemed associated with only a few type 2 varicosities. Conversely, almost all type 2 varicosities were closely apposed to NK1 receptor-positive dendrites that were known to be derived from cholinergic and nNOS-producing interneurons. These findings indicate that the mGluR4-positive terminals of MSN axon collaterals selectively form synapses with neostriatal cholinergic interneurons."}],"_id":"2495","extern":1,"doi":"10.1002/cne.21216","intvolume":"       500","title":"Metabotropic glutamate receptor 4-immunopositive terminals of medium-sized spiny neurons selectively form synapses with cholinergic interneurons in the rat neostriatum","publisher":"Wiley-Blackwell","author":[{"full_name":"Kuramoto, Eriko","first_name":"Eriko","last_name":"Kuramoto"},{"last_name":"Fujiyama","first_name":"Fumino","full_name":"Fujiyama, Fumino"},{"last_name":"Unzai","full_name":"Unzai, Tomo","first_name":"Tomo"},{"first_name":"Kouichi","full_name":"Nakamura, Kouichi","last_name":"Nakamura"},{"last_name":"Hioki","full_name":"Hioki, Hiroyuki","first_name":"Hiroyuki"},{"last_name":"Furuta","full_name":"Furuta, Takahiro","first_name":"Takahiro"},{"orcid":"0000-0001-8761-9444","last_name":"Shigemoto","id":"499F3ABC-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Ryuichi","full_name":"Ryuichi Shigemoto"},{"last_name":"Ferraguti","full_name":"Ferraguti, Francesco","first_name":"Francesco"},{"full_name":"Kaneko, Takeshi","first_name":"Takeshi","last_name":"Kaneko"}],"day":"10","publication_status":"published","date_published":"2007-02-10T00:00:00Z","date_created":"2018-12-11T11:58:00Z","issue":"5"}
