Dopamine D3 receptors modulate the rate of neuronal recovery, cell recruitment in Area X, and song tempo after neurotoxic damage in songbirds

Highlights • Activation of D3Rs reduces lesion size within the striatal vocal nucleus Area X after injury. • Activation of D3Rs increases the number of young neurons in Area X after injury. • Striatal injury increases the mRNA expression of D3Rs in the neurogenic subventricular zone and in RA. • The...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Activation of D3Rs reduces lesion size within the striatal vocal nucleus Area X after injury. • Activation of D3Rs increases the number of young neurons in Area X after injury. • Striatal injury increases the mRNA expression of D3Rs in the neurogenic subventricular zone and in RA. • The lesion-induced changes in song tempo may be facilitated by D3Rs in the motor nucleus RA.
