Dopamine signalling in dorsal versus ventral striatum: the dynamic role of cholinergic interneurons

Mesostriatal dopaminergic neurons and striatal cholinergic interneurons participate in signalling the motivational significance of environmental stimuli and regulate striatal plasticity. Dopamine (DA) and acetylcholine (ACh) have potent interactions within the striatum at multiple levels that includ...
