Subthalamic, not striatal, activity correlates with basal ganglia downstream activity in normal and parkinsonian monkeys

The striatum and the subthalamic nucleus (STN) constitute the input stage of the basal ganglia (BG) network and together innervate BG downstream structures using GABA and glutamate, respectively. Comparison of the neuronal activity in BG input and downstream structures reveals that subthalamic, not...
