Striatal lateral inhibition regulates action selection in a mouse model of levodopa-induced dyskinesia

Lateral inhibition in the striatum may help select actions and suppress alternatives. We identify chronic changes in the strength of striatal lateral inhibitory synapses in a mouse model of Parkinson's disease with levodopa-induced dyskinesia.
