Brain tissue expression of DRD2 - Mouse brain

MOUSE BRAIN TISSUE

Gene description	Dopamine receptor D2
Mouse gene	ENSMUSG00000032259 (version 10)
Annotation summary	Stong intensity diffuse-synaptic and axonal immunostaining is noticed in the olfactory nerve- and glomerular layers of the olfactory bulb, caudate putamen, nucleus accumbens (core+shell), ventral pallidum, olfactory tubercule, basolateral amygdala. Weak-moderate diffuse-synaptic and sparse axonal immunostaining is noticed in muliple regions of the brain, including the cortex, hippocampus (primary the mossy fibers), lateral septum, periaqueductal gray matter. Strong somato-densdritic neuronal cytoplasmic / dense axonal immunostaining is noticed in/around the A8-16 dopaminergic cell groups, the locus coeruleus and some medullar nuclei, like n. tr. solitarii or n. ambiguus. Median eminence is strongly immunoreactive.
Positive cells and structuresⁱ Manually selected location of the protein positivity, observed by immunofluorescence staining in mouse brain.	Soma, dendrite, axon and synapse in neurons. Circumventricular organs of ependymal cells.
