State of the art in sub-phenotyping midbrain dopamine neurons
Abstract: Dopaminergic neurons in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) comprise around 75% of all dopaminergic neurons in the human brain. While both groups of dopaminergic neurons are in close proximity in the midbrain and partially overlap, development, function, and impairments in these two classes of neurons are highly diverse. The molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying these differences are not yet fully understood, but research over the past decade has highlighted the need to differentiate between these two classes of dopaminergic neurons during their development and in the mature brain. This differentiation is crucial not only for understanding fundamental circuitry formation in the brain but also for developing therapies targeted to specific dopaminergic neuron classes without affecting others. In this review, we summarize the state of the art in our understanding of the differences between the dopaminergic neurons of the VTA and the SNpc, such as anatomy, structure, morphology, output and input, electrophysiology, development, and disorders, and discuss the current technologies and methods available for studying these two classes of dopaminergic neurons, highlighting their advantages, limitations, and the necessary improvements required to achieve more-precise therapeutic interventions
