Scope and Contents

Contents

GPR88 is an orphan G protein–coupled receptor expressed in striatal medium spiny neurons (MSNs). The authors show that deletion of
Gpr88
in mice leads to hyperactivity, poor motor coordination and impaired cue-based learning. MSNs lacking GPR88 show increased excitation and reduced inhibition
in vitro
, and enhanced firing rates
in v...
