Intracerebral grafting of neuronal cell suspensions. IV. Behavioural recovery in rats with unilateral implants of nigral cell suspensions in different forebrain sites
Single and multiple implants of nigral cell suspensions were grafted to the forebrains of rats with unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine-induced dopamine denervations. Control lesions alone induced a marked behavioural asymmetry, as assessed by amphetamine- and apomorphine-induced rotation, sensorimotor tests and side bias in an unbaited T-maze, and the animals were hyperactive to a low dose of apomorphin
