Circling behavior and [14C]2-deoxyglucose mapping in rats: possible implications for autistic repetitive behaviors
Repetitive behaviors (such as circling) are one of the defining features of autism. The substantia nigra (SN) is involved in circling. We used unilateral SN pars reticulata (SNR) infusions of the GABA agonist muscimol to induce circling and deoxyglucose autoradiography mapping in adult and postnatal...
