Quantitative assessment of stereotyped and challenged locomotion after lesion of the striatum: a 3D kinematic study in rats.

BACKGROUND: Although the striatum is in position to regulate motor function, the role of the structure in locomotor behaviour is poorly understood.Therefore, a detailed analysis of locomotion- and obstacle avoidance-related parameters was performed after unilateral lesion of the striatum in rats.METHODS AND RESULTS: Using the three dimensional moti
