Dopamine D1 receptor activation regulates the expression of the estrogen synthesis gene aromatase B in radial glial cells

Radial glial cells (RGCs) are abundant stem-like non-neuronal progenitors that are important for adult neurogenesis and brain repair, yet little is known about their regulation by neurotransmitters. Here we provide evidence for neuronal-glial interactions via a novel role for dopamine to stimulate R...
