    Histograms comparing the density of vGluT2-positive terminals in the caudate (a) and putamen (b) of control (N=3) and MPTP-treated (N=3) parkinsonian monkeys. This analysis revealed that the density of vGluT2+ terminals forming synapses onto dendrites and spines in both the head and body of the caudate, and the pre- and post-commissural putamen was not statistically different between control and MPTP-treated monkeys (t-test, p values: Caudate head axo-spine=0.442; axo-dendrite= 0.145. Caudate body axo-spine=0.0961; axo-dendrite=0.0474. Pre-commissural putamen axo-spine=0.066; axo-dendrite=0.035. Postcommissural putamen axo-spine=0.516; axo-dendrite=0.486

    Techniques: Control

    Histograms comparing the percentages of ChAT-positive dendrites that form asymmetric synapses with vGluT2-positive terminals in the caudate and putamen of control and MPTP-treated monkeys. In both the caudate and putamen, no significant differences (Chi-square test) between control and parkinsonian monkeys were found in the proportions of ChAT-positive dendrites receiving vGluT2-positive terminals
