Transplantation of Mesencephalic Cell Suspensions from Wild-Type and Heterozygous Weaver Mice into the Denervated Striatum: Assessing the Role of Graft-Derived Dopaminergic Dendrites in the Recovery of Function

The Weaver (wv) mutation leads to a loss of mesencephalic dopamine cells and nigrostriatal dopamine axons in homozygosity (wv/wv) and to a deficiency of nigral dopaminergic dendrites without a concomitant loss of dopamine cell somata or axons in heterozygosity (wv/+). Previous studies have shown tha...
