Real time adenosine fluctuations detected with fast-scan cyclic voltammetry in the rat striatum and motor cortex

摘要

Background: Adenosine serves many functions within the CNS, including inhibitory and excitatory control of neurotransmission. The understanding of adenosine dynamics in the brain is of fundamental importance. The goal of the present study was to explore subsecond adenosine fluctuations in the rat brain in vivo.
