Analysis of receptor localization in the central nervous system using in vitro and in vivo receptor autoradiography
Quantitative receptor autoradiography methods have been widely used over the last three decades to study the distribution and physiological role of a receptor in various tissues. This review provides an overview of in vivo and in vitro receptor autoradiography methods and their advantages as well as disadvantages in the study of receptors in the central nervous system. Comparison with immunohistochemical and in situ hybridization methods is also highlighted in relation to the study of a given receptor in the nervous sytem
