Changes in hepatic messenger RNA for phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (GTP) during development.

abstract：:Dopamine is believed to contribute to the degeneration of dopamine-containing neurons in the brain. However, whether dopamine affects the survival of other neuronal populations has remained unclear. Here we document that mice with persistently elevated extracellular dopamine, resulting from inactivation of the dopamin...
