    The influence of unilateral removal of vibrissae on the crossed and uncrossed nigrostriatal projections was examined with the horseradish peroxidase tract tracing technique. Hemivibrissotomy mainly affected the projections arising from the rostral part of the substantia nigra. One to three days after clipping the vibrissae, rats were found to have more labeled neurons in the crossed projection to the caudate-putamen (CPU) on the same side as vibrissae removal than in the crossed projection to the CPU opposite to vibrissae removal. A reversed asymmetry was seen in rats examined 4-20 days after vibrissae removal. These animals had more labeled cells in the crossed and uncrossed projections terminating in the CPU opposite to the shaved side, i.e. in the hemisphere deprived of vibrissal sensory input. This time-course of neural alterations is similar to that of the recovery from behavioral asymmetries seen after hemivibrissotomy. Similar time-dependent alterations in the nigrostriatal projection had been found after unilateral injection of 6-OHDA into the substantia nigra.
