Accumbal Dopamine Release Tracks the Expectation of Dopamine Neuron-Mediated Reinforcement
Summary: Dopamine (DA) transmission in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) facilitates cue-reward associations and appetitive action. Reward-related accumbal DA release dynamics are traditionally ascribed to ventral tegmental area (VTA) DA neurons. Activation of VTA to NAc DA signaling is thought to reinfor...
