Altered neural activity in the mesoaccumbens pathway underlies impaired social reward processing in <i>Shank3</i> -deficient rats
2023-12-05
Abstract excerpt
Social behaviors are crucial for human connection and belonging, often impacted in conditions like Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The mesoaccumbens pathway (VTA and NAc) plays a pivotal role in social behavior and is implicated in ASD. However, the impact of ASD-related mutations on social reward processing remains insufficiently explored. This study focuses on the Shank3 mutation, associated with a rare genetic...
