TL;DR
The data indicate that loss of prefrontal cortical or hippocampal modulation leads to an enhancement of DA transmission within the basal ganglia, though the pattern of augmentation depends on the area lesioned.
Abstract
Effects of prefrontal cortical or hippocampal excitotoxic lesions on behavioral parameters related to dopaminergic transmission in the basal ganglia were investigated in the rat. We examined haloperidol-induced catalepsy and apomorphine-induced stereotypic behaviors after ibotenic acid lesions of the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC), dorsal (DH), or ventral hippocampus (VH) in adult rats. Haloperidol-induced (1 mg/kg) catalepsy was decreased in rats with either MPFC or VH but not DH lesions. While both DH and VH lesioned animals demonstrated a reduction in apomorphine-induced (0.75 mg/kg) stereotypic behaviors, the VH lesioned animals also showed an enhancement of locomotor activity. MPFC lesioned rats tended towards potentiation of stereotypic behaviors and reduced locomotion after apomorphine administration. These data indicate that loss of prefrontal cortical or hippocampal modulation leads to an enhancement of DA transmission within the basal ganglia, though the pattern of augmentation depends on the area lesioned.

The efferent connections of the hippocampal formation of the rat have been re‐examined autoradiographically following the injection of small quantities of 3H‐amino acids into different parts of Ammon's horn and the adjoining structures to indicate quite clearly that each component of the hippocampusal formation has a distinctive pattern ofefferent connections.

The protection by DMI of noradrenergic neurons from the toxic effects of 60HDA is evidence that 60H DA, as used here, destroys catecholamine neurons mainly by an uptake-dependent specific mechanism.

212 Citations1987G R Breese, G E Duncan +4 more
The findings suggest that chronic dopamine receptor blockade need not produce the same adaptive mechanisms as destruction of dopamine-containing neurons as well as a change in receptor characteristics as measured by dopamine antagonist binding does not account for the behavioral supersensitivity observed after D1- and D2-dopamine agonist administration to neonatally or adult-6-OHDA-treated rats.

It seems unlikely that changes in amphetamine-induced locomotion following medial frontal cortex lesions are related to underlying modifications in dopaminergic activity in the nucleus accumbens, but it is suggested that neural structures compete for behavioral expression and that postlesion behavioral alterations reveal the competitive advantage of remaining intact neural systems.

Although increases in receptor density and changes in cAMP systems are seen in the UNI model, neither mechanism is a requirement for functional supersensitivity in response to 6-OHDA lesions, which suggests that other cellular events (e.g. alterations in receptor interactions) may play a role in the response to insult.
