Comparison of gene expression of the dopamine D-2 receptor and DARPP-32 in rat brain, pituitary and adrenal gland.
In situ hybridization histochemistry was used to compare the distribution of dopamine D-2 receptor mRNA and DARPP-32 mRNA in rat brain, pituitary and adrenal gland. In many regions such as the caudate nucleus, nucleus accumbens and olfactory tubercle, there was an excellent correlation with dopamine receptor binding studies, whereas in some discrete brain regions mismatches were observed.
