Abstract
Huntington's disease (HD) is characterized by pronounced pathology of the basal ganglia, with numerous studies documenting the pattern of striatal neurodegeneration in the human brain. However, a principle target of striatal outflow, the globus pallidus (GP), has received limited attention in comparison, despite being a core component of the basal ganglia. The external segment (GPe) is a major output of the dorsal striatum, connecting widely to other basal ganglia nuclei via the indirect motor pathway. The internal segment (GPi) is a final output station of both the direct and indirect motor pathways of the basal ganglia. The ventral pallidum (VP), in contrast, is a primary output of the limbic ventral striatum. Currently, there is a lack of consensus in the literature regarding the extent of GPe and GPi neurodegeneration in HD, with a conflict between pallidal neurons being preserved, and pallidal neurons being lost. In addition, no current evidence considers the fate of the VP in HD, despite it being a key structure involved in reward and motivation. Understanding the involvement of these structures in HD will help to determine their involvement in basal ganglia pathway dysfunction in the disease. A clear understanding of the impact of striatal projection loss on the main neurons that receive striatal input, the pallidal neurons, will aid in the understanding of disease pathogenesis. In addition, a clearer picture of pallidal involvement in HD may contribute to providing a morphological basis to the considerable variability in the types of motor, behavioral, and cognitive symptoms in HD. This review aims to highlight the importance of the globus pallidus, a critical component of the cortical-basal ganglia circuits, and its role in the pathogenesis of HD. This review also summarizes the current literature relating to human studies of the globus pallidus in HD.

Abstract
Neurons of the globus pallidus receive massive inputs from the striatum and the subthalamic nucleus, but their activity, as well as those of their striatal and subthalamic inputs, are modulated by brainstem afferents. These include serotonin (5-HT) projections from the dorsal raphe nucleus, cholinergic (ACh) inputs from the pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus, and dopamine (DA) afferents from the substantia nigra pars compacta. This review summarizes our recent findings on the distribution, quantitative and ultrastructural aspects of pallidal 5-HT, ACh and DA innervations. These results have led to the elaboration of a new model of the pallidal neuron based on a precise knowledge of the hierarchy and chemical features of the various synaptic inputs. The dense 5-HT, ACh and DA innervations disclosed in the associative and limbic pallidal territories suggest that these brainstem inputs contribute principally to the planification of motor behaviors and the regulation of attention and mood. Although 5-HT, ACh and DA inputs were found to modulate pallidal neurons and their afferents mainly through asynaptic (volume) transmission, genuine synaptic contacts occur between these chemospecific axon varicosities and pallidal dendrites, revealing that these brainstem projections have a direct access to pallidal neurons, in addition to their indirect input through the striatum and subthalamic nucleus. Altogether, these findings reveal that the brainstem 5-HT, ACh and DA pallidal afferents act in concert with the more robust GABAergic inhibitory striatopallidal and glutamatergic excitatory subthalamopallidal inputs. We hypothesize that a fragile equilibrium between forebrain and brainstem pallidal afferents plays a key role in the functional organization of the primate basal ganglia, in both health and disease.

Abstract
The external segment of the pallidum (GP(e)) is a relatively large nucleus located caudomedial to the neostriatum (Str). The GP(e) receives major inputs from two major basal ganglia input nuclei, the Str and the subthalamic nucleus (STN), and sends its output to many basal ganglia nuclei including the STN, the Str, the internal pallidal segment (GP(i)), and the substantia nigra (SN). Thus, the GPe can be placed at the center of the basal ganglia connection diagram (Fig. 1(A)). From the viewpoint that emphasizes the direct and indirect pathways of the basal ganglia, the GP(e) is a component of the indirect pathway that relays Str inputs to the STN. The indirect pathway can be traced in Fig. 1(A), although it comprises only a part of multiple indirect pathways. This chapter begins with a brief description of the anatomical organization of the GP(e) followed by physiological and pharmacological characterizations of GABAergic responses in the GP(e).

Abstract
Immunohistochemistry for three calcium-binding proteins calbindin D-28k, calretinin, and parvalbumin revealed neuronal heterogeneity within the GP. Each neurone appeared to express either a single type of calcium binding protein or none at all. The co-localisation of calcium binding proteins was not observed. Combined immunohistochemistry and retrograde tract tracing using colloidal gold particles injected into the projection fields, the substantia nigra or subthalamic nucleus, revealed that projection neurones could be labelled with either calbindin or parvalbumin. These cells were of medium size (22 x 12 microm), multipolar and moderate varicose dendritic trees. In contrast, calretinin-positive neurones were never retrogradely labelled, even in regions where neuronal colloidal gold deposits were numerous. This, combined with their rarity (<1%) and small size (11 x 9 microm), suggests that calretinin may be a neurochemical marker for putative rat globus pallidus interneurones. Calcium-binding proteins are known to have unique buffering characteristics that may confer specific functional properties upon pallidal neurones. Indeed, differential calcium binding protein expression may underlie the electrophysiological heterogeneity observed in the rat globus pallidus.

Abstract
The distribution of the calcium-binding proteins calbindin-D28K (CB), parvalbumin (PV) and calretinin (CR), and of the nonphosphorylated neurofilament protein (with SMI-32) was investigated in the human basal ganglia to identify anatomofunctional territories. In the striatum, gradients of neuropil immunostaining define four major territories: The first (T1) includes all but the rostroventral half of the putamen and is characterized by enhanced matriceal PV and SMI-32 immunoreactivity (-ir). The second territory (T2) encompasses most part of the caudate nucleus (Cd) and rostral putamen (PuT), which show enhanced matriceal CB-ir. The third and fourth territories (T3 and T4) comprise rostroventral parts of Cd and PuT characterized by complementary patch/matrix distributions of CB- and CR-ir, and the accumbens nucleus (Acb), respectively. The latter is separated into lateral (prominently enhanced in CB-ir) and medial (prominently enhanced in CR-ir) subdivisions. In the pallidum, parallel gradients also delimit four territories, T1 in the caudal half of external (GPe) and internal (GPi) divisions, characterized by enhanced PV- and SMI-32-ir; T2 in their rostral half, characterized by enhanced CB-ir; and T3 and T4 in their rostroventral pole and in the subpallidal area, respectively, both expressing CB- and CR-ir but with different intensities. The subthalamic nucleus (STh) shows contrasting patterns of dense PV-ir (sparing only the most medial part) and low CB-ir. Expression of CR-ir is relatively low, except in the medial, low PV-ir, part of the nucleus, whereas SMI-32-ir is moderate across the whole nucleus. The substantia nigra is characterized by complementary patterns of high neuropil CB- and SMI-32-ir in pars reticulata (SNr) and high CR-ir in pars compacta (SNc) and in the ventral tegmental area (VTA). The compartmentalization of calcium-binding proteins and SMI-32 in the human basal ganglia, in particular in the striatum and pallidum, delimits anatomofunctional territories that are of significance for functional imaging studies and target selection in stereotactic neurosurgery.

Abstract
Single- and double-antigen localization procedures were used to study the distribution, morphological characteristics and chemical phenotype of neurons containing the calcium-binding protein calretinin in the pedunculopontine and laterodorsal tegmental nuclei of the cynomolgus monkey (Macaca fascicularis). Calretinin was detected in neurons that belonged to a highly heteromorphic and widely distributed subpopulation of the pedunculopontine and laterodorsal tegmental nuclei in the cynomolgus monkey. Double-immunostaining experiments revealed that about 12% of these calretinin-containing neurons displayed immunoreactivity for another calcium-binding protein, Calbindin-D28k. The calretinin/Calbindin-D28k double-labeled neurons had small to medium-sized perikarya, from which emerged a bipolar or multipolar dendritic arborization. Calretinin was also present in approximately 8% of the cholinergic neurons of the pedunculopontine/laterodorsal nuclear complex, as visualized on single sections immunostained for both calretinin and choline acetyltransferase. These calretinin/choline acetyltransferase double-labeled neurons displayed markedly different sizes and shapes, and occurred preferentially in the pars compacta and dissipata of the pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus. Numerous calretinin-immunoreactive fibers were also present within and around the superior cerebellar peduncle. Some of these varicose fibers closely surrounded large non-immunoreactive neurons, as well as large neurons staining positively for choline acetyltransferase. This study provides the first evidence for the existence of calretinin-immunoreactive neurons within the primate pedunculopontine and laterodorsal tegmental nuclei. Our data suggest that calretinin may play a role in the function of the pedunculopontine/laterodorsal nuclear complex by acting either alone or in conjunction with acetylcholine or Calbindin-D28k.

Abstract
The morphological organization of the globus pallidus (GP), the subthalamic nucleus (STN), and the pallidosubthalamic projection was studied in organotypic cultures. Coronal slices from the GP, the STN, the striatum (CPu), and the cortex (Cx) were taken from the rat after postnatal days 0-2 and grown for 2 or 5-6 weeks. For analysis, immunocytochemistry against glutamate (GLU), parvalbumin (PV), and calretinin (CR) was combined with confocal microscopy. After 2 weeks in vitro, the STN showed a densely packed, homogeneous GLU-immunoreactive (ir) cell population. Pallidal GLU-ir neurons were heterogeneous, consisting of large-sized weakly GLU-ir neurons and small-sized intensively GLU-ir neurons. After 5-6 weeks in vitro, pallidal axons had radiated from numerous large-sized PV-ir cells and selectively innervated the STN, where they heavily ramified. Cultured STN neurons were not stained for PV; however, multipolar intensely PV-ir neurons were located at the border of the STN with their dendrites oriented towards the STN. Double labeling for PV and CR in both mature cultures and in the adult rat revealed that the culture CR-ir neurons from the GP, the Cpu, and from areas adjacent to the STN were different from cultured PV-ir neurons and their morphologies and distribution corresponded to that in vivo. These results demonstrate that 1) cultured CP and STN neurons display similar morphologies found in in vivo, 2) PV-ir pallidal neurons heavily and selectively innervate the STN; 3) there is a specific class of STN border neurons; and 4) in contrast to the in vivo situation, most cultured STN neurons are PV-negative.

Abstract
The localization and levels of expression of the calcium-binding protein calretinin (CR) in the human thalamus was studied with an in situ hybridization method applied to formalin-fixed postmortem material from normal individuals. The riboprobe used was generated from a specific fragment of human CR cDNA. As visualized on X-ray film autoradiographs, high levels of CR gene transcript occurred in several thalamic nuclei, including the reticular nucleus, mediodorsal nucleus, rostral intralaminar nuclei (paracentral, central medial and central lateral) and several midline nuclei (paraventricular, reuniens and medioventral nuclei). In the reticular nucleus, neurons expressing CR mRNA were few in number but formed dense and widely distributed clusters. In contrast, virtually all neurons in the rostral intralaminar and midline nuclei expressed very high levels of CR mRNA and formed a prominent rim around the mediodorsal nucleus, which contained scattered clusters of labeled neurons. The caudal intralaminar nuclei, principally the centromedian nucleus, displayed very few neurons expressing CR mRNA. Only the medial part of the parafascicular nucleus expressed moderate levels of CR mRNA. The nuclei of the ventral group (ventral anterior, lateral and posterior nuclei) were virtually devoid of CR gene transcript. This highly heterogeneous pattern of mRNA expression suggests that CR may be heavily involved in the function of the so-called non-specific nuclei, but not in that of the specific relay nuclei of the human thalamus. The data also demonstrate that the presence of CR gene transcript can easily be detected on formalin-fixed sections of the human brain.

Abstract
The immunohistochemical approach was used to study the distribution of three calcium-binding proteins of the 'EF hand' family, namely calretinin, calbindin-D28k and parvalbumin, in the preoptico-hypothalamic complex of the squirrel monkey (Saimiri sciureus). These three calcium-binding proteins were found to be heterogeneously distributed in the primate hypothalamus. Neurons expressing high levels of calretinin immunoreactivity were particularly abundant in the infundibular (arcuate) nucleus, the suprachiasmatic nucleus, the lateral area and the dorsomedial nucleus of the hypothalamus. Neurons displaying immunoreactivity for calbindin-D28k were especially numerous in the medial preoptic area and diagonal band nucleus, as well as in the magnocellular subdivision of the paraventricular nucleus, the suprachiasmatic nucleus, the supraoptic nucleus, the infundibular nucleus, the ventromedial nucleus and the mammillary bodies of the hypothalamus. Fibers displaying intense immunoreactivity for either calretinin or calbindin-D28k were very abundant in the median eminence of the hypothalamus. In contrast to calretinin- and calbindin-D28k, parvalbumin was largely absent from the primate preoptico-hypothalamic complex. Parvalbumin-immunoreactive neurons occurred in significant number only in the most lateral portion of the medial mammillary nucleus in the squirrel monkey. The results of the present study suggest that calretinin and calbindin-D28k may act, either in concert or in a complementary manner, so as to participate in some specific aspects of the multifarious role of the hypothalamus in primates. In contrast to the other two calcium-binding proteins, parvalbumin is unlikely to be involved in a significant manner in hypothalamic functions in primates.

Abstract
This paper describes the distribution of the calcium-binding proteins calbindin-D28k. Parvalbumin and calretinin in primate basal ganglia. The data derive from immunocytochemical studies undertaken in squirrel monkeys (Saimiri sciureus) and in normal human individuals. In the striatum, calbindin labels medium-sized spiny projection neurons whereas parvalbumin and calretinin mark two separate classes of aspiny interneurons. The striatal matrix compartment is markedly enriched with calbindin while striatal patches (striosomes) display a calretinin-rich neuropil. In the pallidum, virtually all neurons contain parvalbumin but none express calbindin. Calretinin occurs only in a small subpopulation of both large and small pallidal neurons. In the subthalamic nucleus, there exists a multitude of parvalbumun-positive cells and fibers but the number of calretinin and calbindin-positive neuronal elements is small. In the substantia nigra/ventral tegmental area complex, calbindin and calretinin occur principally in dopaminergic neurons of the dorsal tier of the pars compacta and in those of the ventral tegmental area. Parvalbumin is strictly confined to the GABAergic neurons of the pars reticulata and lateralis. Calbindin-rich fibers abound in the pars reticulata and lateralis, while calretinin-positive axons are confined to the pars compacta. These results indicate that calbindin and parvalbumin are distributed according to a strikingly complementary pattern in primate basal ganglia. Calretinin is less ubiquitous but occurs in all basal ganglia components where it labels distinct subsets of neurons. Such highly specific patterns of distribution indicate that calbindin, parvalbumin and calretinin may work in synergy within primate basal ganglia.

Abstract
The distribution of the calcium-binding protein, calretinin, in the thalamus of the squirrel monkey (Saimiri sciureus) was studied with immunohistochemical methods. Calretinin was found to be heterogeneously distributed in the primate thalamus and to occur only in specific neuronal populations of certain thalamic nuclei. Neuronal cells and fibers in midline nuclei and their dorsolateral extension, which includes the parataenial and central superior lateral nuclei, displayed the most intense calretinin immunoreactivity. The immunoreactivity for cells and fibers in the intralaminar nuclei was moderate rostrally but very weak caudally. The centre mèdian nucleus, together with the medial habenular nucleus, were virtually devoid of calretinine immunostaining. The mediodorsal nucleus displayed a markedly heterogeneous staining, with numerous clusters of labeled cells and fibers in its central parvicellular part. Cell and fiber immunoreactivity ranged from moderate to high in the nuclei of the anterior and lateral groups, but was very weak in the nuclei of the ventral and posterior groups. There was a small to moderate number of heterogeneously distributed calretinin-immunoreactive cells and fibers in the lateral and medial geniculate bodies, as well as in the reticular nucleus. The present study provides the first evidence for the existence of calretinin in primate thalamus, where this protein is distributed according to a highly heterogeneous pattern. This specific pattern of distribution suggests that calretlnin may play a role that is complementary to those of the other calcium-binding proteins parvalbumin and calbindin D-28k in the thalamus of primates.

Abstract
Neurons immunoreactive for the calcium-binding protein calretinin (CR) were visualized in the substantia nigra (SN) pars compacta (SNc), reticulata (SNr) and lateralis (SNl), the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and the subthalamic nucleus (STN) of squirrel monkeys. The density of CR perikarya was high in VTA, moderate in SNc, low in SNr/SNl, and very low in STN. The SNc/VTA complex also displayed a CR-rich neuropil. Some CR perikarya and fibers occurred in specific sectors of STN. These data suggest that CR may play a role in specific neuronal subpopulations in all components of primate basal ganglia.
