| In the direct pathway, GPi is inhibited by _____ transmitters from the ______ circuit. | GABAergic from putamen |
| In the indirect pathway, GPi is excited by _______, which is previously inhibited by ______. | subthalamic nucleus. It was previously inhibited by GPe. (Since GABAergic transmitter from putamen inhibits GPe, STN is disinhibited). |
| Dopamine strengthens the direct pathway to support movement by binding to ____ receptors. | D1-like |
| Dopamine weakens the indirect pathway to support movement by binding to ____ receptors. | D2-like |
| At resting potential, GPi is spontaneously active to ________. | Inhibit VL thalamus. |

| Eye saccades are driven by the _________ circuits, which is activated by ________. | paramedial pontine reticular circuits. activated by superior colliculus. |
| Since superior colliculus is inhibited by ________, inhibition of the structure by the striatum can disinhibit superior colliculi. | SBpr. |
