Dopamine depletion induced up-regulation of HCN3 enhances rebound excitability of basal ganglia output neurons

Motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD) are associated with complex changes of firing properties in basal ganglia output neurons (BGON). The abnormalities are generally attributed to altered synaptic input and potential post-synaptic mechanisms are currently unknown. Our cell-type selective...
