An important pathway in the modulation of the direct and indirect pathways is the dopaminergic, nigrostriatal projection from the substantia nigra pars compacta to the striatum (Figure 4.5). Direct pathway striatal neurons have D1 dopamine receptors, which depolarize the cell in response to dopamine.. The net effect of excitation of the direct pathway is to inhibit cortex. B. Dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra signal unexpected reward or unexpected absence of reward. C. The basal ganglia have both motor and cognitive functions.
