Dopamine D2 receptor activation potently inhibits striatal glutamatergic transmission in a G2019S LRRK2 genetic model of Parkinson's disease

Among genetic abnormalities identified in Parkinson's disease (PD), mutations of the leucine-rich repeat kinase2 (LRRK2) gene, such as the G2019S missense mutation linked to enhanced kinase activity, are the most common. While the complex role of LRRK2 has not been fully elucidated, evidence th...
