Midbrain dopamine neuronal activity modulates splenic immunity through a brain-to-body circuit
2024-12-10
Abstract excerpt
Midbrain dopamine neurons are well-known to shape central nervous system function, yet there is growing evidence for their influence on the peripheral immune system. Here we demonstrate that midbrain dopamine neurons form a circuit to the spleen via a multi-synaptic pathway from the dorsal vagal complex (DVC) through the celiac ganglion. Midbrain dopamine neurons modulate the activity of D1- and D2-like dopamine r...
