Midbrain dopaminergic axons are guided longitudinally by Slit/Robo signaling

Dopaminergic neurons from the ventral mesencephalon/diencephalon (mesodiencephalon) form vital pathways constituting the majority of the brain's dopamine systems. Mesodiencephalic dopaminergic (mdDA) neurons extend longitudinal projections anteriorly, ascending toward forebrain targets. How mdD...
