abstract：:We studied the in vitro electrical activity of rat neostriatal neurons following chronic neuroleptic treatment. In haloperidol-treated rats, unlike naive animals, activation of neostriatal D2 dopamine receptors induced a potent presynaptic inhibition of glutamate-mediated excitatory synaptic potentials. Haloperidol tr...
