assuming that our two measures reflect the number of dopaminergic neurons in sn-a10 area and density of their processes in corpus striatum , our results lead us to the hypothesis that the number of dopaminergic neurons and the axonal arborization of these neurons in the nigrostriatal system are in part under a common genetic control but that other genes may contribute to branching of sn neurons .
