brain presence of enzymatically active DHODH in many regions of the central nervous system, albeit at different intensities. High levels of both DHODH activity and immunoreactivity are observed in the neocortex, hippocampus, spinal cord and choroid plexus. Lower levels are seen in the cerebellum, and only marginal expression in brain stem Rattus norvegicus
