Coexistence of glutamatergic spine synapses and shaft synapses in substantia nigra dopamine neurons

Dopamine neurons of the substantia nigra have long been believed to have multiple aspiny dendrites which receive many glutamatergic synaptic inputs from several regions of the brain. But, here, using high-resolution two-photon confocal microscopy in the mouse brain slices, we found a substantial num...
