Calbindin content and differential vulnerability of midbrain efferent dopaminergic neurons in macaques

Calbindin (CB) is a calcium binding protein reported to protect dopaminergic neurons from degeneration. Although a direct link between CB content and differential vulnerability of dopaminergic neurons has long been accepted, factors other than CB have also been suggested, particularly those related...
