Abstract: Glutamatergic cortical inputs to the striatum are well-known drivers of striatal activity and play prominent roles in reinforcement learning [1]. Despite longstanding knowledge that thalamic nuclei also contribute anatomically notable glutamatergic inputs to the striatum,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41386-020-0626-y
Abstract: Dorsal striatal manipulations including stimulation of dopamine release and activation of medium spiny neurons (MSNs) are sufficient to drive reinforcement-based learning. Glutamatergic innervation of the striatum by the cortex and thalamus is a critical determinant… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/fbp.0000000000000288
Abstract: Modafinil is a low-potency inhibitor of dopamine transporters (DAT) approved clinically to promote wakefulness. In most procedures used for abuse-liability assessment, modafinil produces effects similar to those of abused DAT inhibitors such as cocaine and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/psyp.14190
Abstract: Modulation of the blink reflex (BR) to supraorbital nerve (SON) stimulation by a weak somatosensory prepulse (sPP) consists of inhibition of R2 and facilitation of R1. Similar BR changes occur with self-stimulation. Our aim was… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnbeh.2022.851067
Abstract: Deep-brain stimulation of the medial forebrain bundle (MFB) can provide effective, enduring relief of treatment-resistant depression. Panksepp provided an explanatory framework: the MFB constitutes the core of the neural circuitry subserving the anticipation and pursuit… read more here.
