| 1 | To the extent that aging is associated with a substantial loss of striatal dopaminergic nerve terminals, the present results also suggest that DDC protein synthesis may be upregulated in those dopaminergic neurons that survive the aging process and, therefore, that striatal [18F]fluorodopa uptake indices may provide an overestimate of the number of dopaminergic nerve terminals during physiological aging. | fluorodopa F 18 | dopa decarboxylase | Homo sapiens |
