The massive cell death of dopaminergic neurons (DANs) in substantia nigra pars compacta (SNC) is associated with motor diseases, such as Parkinson's disease. Moreover, as a subtype of DANs in SNC, ALDH1A1+ neurons show better resistance to PD related neurotoxin. DANs can also be found in the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNR), however, whether they are ALDH1A1+ neurons are rarely reported, as well as their projection, function, and reaction in the PD pathology. We studied the distribution of ALDH1A1+ neurons and track their projection by injecting pAAV. We figured out that, in SNR, 87 % neurons are ALDH1A1+/TH+ in ALDH1A1+ cluster averagely, while ALDH1A1+/TH+: TH+ is 52 % averagely. There are two enrichment regions of ALDH1A1+/TH+ neurons at brgma -3.40 mm and brgma -3.70 mm in the SNR of the nTg mice. Nevertheless, in one type of PD-liked mice model, the proportion of ALDH1A1+/TH+: ALDH1A1+ neurons are 98 % averagely, while ALHD1A1+/TH+: TH+ is 57 %. Intriguingly, neuro-tracing discovered that there may be a previously unreported connection between SNR and anterior dorsal thalamus (ADT). The mouse received MPTP stereotactic injection to destroy TH+ neurons in SNR showed depression behavior, indicated the DANs death in SNR may contribute to depression behavior.
