Abstract
Intrastriatal BoNT-A injection did not alter the number of ChAT-ir interneurons irrespective of survival time and dosage tested. However, the numeric density of the ChAT-ir BiVs at a dose of 25Â pg increased from 1 to 3Â months after BoNT-A, followed by a time dependent decrease. In parallel, with increasing BoNT-A survival time, the mean BiV volume increased as the number of small BiVs decreased. Interestingly, in contrast to rats we did not find TH-ir BiVs in BoNT-A injected mouse striatum.
