Dopamine release regulation by astrocytes during cerebral ischemia
Brain ischemia triggers excessive release of neurotransmitters that mediate neuronal damage following ischemic injury. The striatum is one of the areas most sensitive to ischemia. Release of dopamine (DA) from ischemic neurons is neurotoxic and directly contributes to the cell death in affected area...
