Abstract

Real-time monitoring of stimulated dopamine release in mice with different α-synuclein expression was used to study the role of α-synuclein in presynaptic dopamine recruitment. Repeated electrical stimulations of ascending dopaminergic pathways decreased the capacity of the readily releasable pool (RRP) and temporarily increased its refilling rate, significantly slowing the rate of dopamine decline in mice with normally expressed α-synuclein. Mice with α-synuclein null mutation demonstrated a permanent increase of the refilling rate. This increase maintained stable dopamine release during stimulation (which induced dopamine decline in other animals) and served as an adaptation to altered dopamine compartmentalization. Mice without α-synuclein and with overexpression of human A30P mutated α-synuclein had a lower capacity of the dopamine storage pool than other animals. Reducing capacity of the storage pool in transgenic A30P mice led to paradoxical effects of l -dopa, which elevated dopamine release in response to single stimulation but decreased the refilling rate of the RRP.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
