“…D 1 -class DARs are coupled to G s/olf , activation of adenyl cyclase, and cAMP production (Missale et al, 1998). PKA potentiates glutamate-induced Ca 2ϩ signals by facilitating activity of NMDAR (Levine et al, 1996;Flores-Hernandez et al, 2002) and InsP 3 R1 (Tang et al, 2003a;Tang and Bezprozvanny, 2004). In HD MSNs, NR2B-and InsP 3 R1-mediated Ca 2ϩ signaling is further facilitated by Htt exp (Zeron et al, 2002(Zeron et al, , 2004Tang et al, 2003bTang et al, , 2005.…”
