Attenuation of neostriatal preproenkephalin and preprotachykinin mRNA abundance by chronic treatment with the kainate/quisqualate receptor antagonist 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione in the rat brain.

abstract：:We are constantly exposed to symbols such as traffic signs, emoticons in internet communication, or other abstract representations of objects as well as, of course, the written words. However, aside from the word reading, little is known about the way our brain responds when we read non-lexical iconic symbols. By usin...
