| Selective vulnerability of hippocampal CA3 neurones after microinfusion of paraquat into the rat substantia nigra or into the ventral tegmental area. |
| The projections to the frontal lobe that are damaged in schizophrenia originate in the ventral tegmental area. |
| Changes that have been observed in association with chronic administration of opioids include physical atrophy of dopamine-producing neurons in the ventral tegmental area. |
| Unitary characteristics of presumptive cholinergic tegmental neurons during the sleepwaking cycle in freely moving cats. |
| However, all have a tegmental sculpture that is mainly smooth or finely granulose. |
| The nucleus accumbens, ventral pallidum, and ventral tegmental areas of the basal ganglia use dopamine to signal reward. |
