Evidence for a modulatory role of Ih on the firing of a subgroup of midbrain dopamine neurons.

abstract：:The regional distribution of c-Fos expression in the brain after the administration of two tremorgenic agents was studied. In both the harmaline- and oxotremorin-treated rats, c-Fos-positive neurons were extensively distributed in the basal ganglia nuclei and the cerebellum. Additionally, in the harmaline-treated rats...
