Whole-Brain opto-fMRI Map of Mouse VTA Dopaminergic Activation Reflects Structural Projections with Small but Significant Deviations

2020-04-04

Abstract excerpt

Ascending dopaminergic projections from neurons located in the Ventral Tegmental Area (VTA) are key to the etiology, dysfunction, and control of motivation, learning, and addiction. Due to evolutionary conservation of this nucleus and the extensive use of mice as disease models, establishing an assay for VTA dopaminergic signalling in the mouse brain is crucial for the translational investigation of motivational c...
