Glucose utilization is elevated relative to adjacent areas in the U-shaped anterior thalamic nuclei (TAM, TAV). Lower right apomorphine. Glucose utilization is reduced relative to adjacent areas in the anterior thalamic nuclei (TAM, TAV). TAM, anteromedial thalamic nuclei TAV, anteroventral thalamic nuclei RE, nucleus reuniens.

Dopamine receptors include at least 4 subtypes which are concentrated in the striatum where D1 and D2 are evenly distributed and D3 is concentrated in the limbic portion, nucleus accumbens (Herroelen et al., 1994). D2 but not D1 receptors also occur throughout the cerebral cortex particularly temporal lobe, and D3 receptors are also present in lower densities in hippocampus and amygdala. D3 receptors are localised in several thalamic nuclei including the lateral geniculate, mediodorsal and anteroventral.
