Cortical Operation of the Ventral Striatal Switchboard
How does the ventral striatum (VS) prioritize and process afferent input? In this issue, Calhoon and O'Donnell (2013) demonstrate that cortical projections to the VS can attenuate hippocampal and thalamic VS input, suggesting that the cortex can uniquely control VS circuit dynamics.

متن کاملThalamic-prefrontal cortical-ventral striatal circuitry mediates dissociable components of strategy set shifting.
The mediodorsal nuclei of thalamus (MD), prefrontal cortex (PFC), and nucleus accumbens core (NAc) form an interconnected network that may work together to subserve certain forms of behavioral flexibility. The present study investigated the functional interactions between these regions during performance of a cross-maze-based strategy set-shifting task. In Experiment 1, reversible bilateral ina...
متن کاملVentral striatal plasticity and spatial memory.
Spatial memory formation is a dynamic process requiring a series of cellular and molecular steps, such as gene expression and protein translation, leading to morphological changes that have been envisaged as the structural bases for the engram. Despite the role suggested for medial temporal lobe plasticity in spatial memory, recent behavioral observations implicate specific components of the st...
متن کاملCortical Control of Striatal Dopamine Transmission via Striatal Cholinergic Interneurons
Corticostriatal regulation of striatal dopamine (DA) transmission has long been postulated, but ionotropic glutamate receptors have not been localized directly to DA axons. Striatal cholinergic interneurons (ChIs) are emerging as major players in striatal function, and can govern DA transmission by activating nicotinic receptors (nAChRs) on DA axons. Cortical inputs to ChIs have historically be...
