DOI: 10.1016/j.biopsych.2018.01.003
Abstract: BACKGROUND The ability to appropriately integrate and respond to rewarding and aversive stimuli is essential for survival. The ventral pallidum (VP) plays a critical role in processing both rewarding and aversive stimuli. However, the VP… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.celrep.2020.02.095
Abstract: The nucleus accumbens (NAc) contributes to behavioral inhibition and compulsions, but circuit mechanisms are unclear. Recent evidence suggests that amygdala and thalamic inputs exert opposing control over behavior, much like direct and indirect pathway output… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neulet.2019.05.032
Abstract: Impulsivity is defined as a predisposition toward rapid, unplanned reactions in response to internal or external stimuli, often yielding negative consequences. Accordingly, impulsivity is considered a significant risk factor for developing addictive behaviors. The hippocampus… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.nlm.2017.02.017
Abstract: &NA; The involvement of different nodes within meso‐cortico‐limbic‐striatal circuitry in mediating reward‐seeking has been well described, yet comparatively less is known about how such circuitry may regulate appetitively‐motivated behaviors that may be punished. The basolateral… read more here.

Price Promotions Cause Impatience

DOI: 10.1177/0022243719871946
Abstract: In this research, the authors propose that incidental exposure to price promotions can cause downstream impatience in an unrelated domain. Specifically, price promotions trigger reward seeking—a general motivational state—and reward seeking, in turn, yields impatience.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1523/eneuro.0087-23.2023
Abstract: Abstract Although casual drinkers are a majority of the alcohol drinking population, understanding of the long-term effects of chronic exposure to lower levels of alcohol is limited. Chronic exposure to lower doses of ethanol may… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fncel.2021.635837
Abstract: Sensory perception underlies how we internalize and interact with the external world. In order to adapt to changing circumstances and interpret signals in a variety of contexts, sensation needs to be reliable, but perception of… read more here.

Importin α3 (KPNA3) Deficiency Augments Effortful Reward-Seeking Behavior in Mice
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Neuroscience"
DOI: 10.3389/fnins.2022.905991
Abstract: Importin α3 (Gene: Kpna3, the ortholog of human Importin α4) is a member of the importin α family and participates in nucleocytoplasmic transport by forming trimeric complexes between cargo proteins and importin β1. Evidence from… read more here.

Specialized coding patterns among dorsomedial prefrontal neuronal ensembles predict conditioned reward seeking
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "eLife"
DOI: 10.7554/elife.65764
Abstract: Non-overlapping cell populations within dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC), defined by gene expression or projection target, control dissociable aspects of reward seeking through unique activity patterns. However, even within these defined cell populations, considerable cell-to-cell variability… read more here.
