Mesoaccumbal dopamine heterogeneity: what do dopamine firing and release have to do with it?
Ventral tegmental area (VTA) dopamine (DA) neurons are often thought to uniformly encode
reward prediction errors. Conversely, DA release in the nucleus accumbens (NAc), the …

Comparative analysis of genome sequences of three isolates of Orf virus reveals unexpected sequence variation
…, N Ueda, SM Friederichs, K Hofmann, KM Fraser… - Virus research, 2006 - Elsevier
Orf virus (ORFV) is the type species of the Parapoxvirus genus. Here, we present the genomic
sequence of the most well studied ORFV isolate, strain NZ2. The NZ2 genome is 138kbp …

A quantitative reward prediction error signal in the ventral pallidum
The nervous system is hypothesized to compute reward prediction errors (RPEs) to promote
adaptive behavior. Correlates of RPEs have been observed in the midbrain dopamine …

State and rate-of-change encoding in parallel mesoaccumbal dopamine pathways
The nervous system uses fast- and slow-adapting sensory detectors in parallel to enable
neuronal representations of external states and their temporal dynamics. It is unknown whether …

A food-predictive cue attributed with incentive salience engages subcortical afferents and efferents of the paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus
The paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus (PVT) has been implicated in behavioral responses
to reward-associated cues. However, the precise role of the PVT in these behaviors has …

Long‐lasting contribution of dopamine in the nucleus accumbens core, but not dorsal lateral striatum, to sign‐tracking
The attribution of incentive salience to reward‐paired cues is dependent on dopamine release
in the nucleus accumbens core (NAcC). These dopamine signals conform to traditional …

Lesions of the paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus differentially affect sign‐and goal‐tracking conditioned responses
Recently, evidence has emerged suggesting a role for the paraventricular nucleus of the
thalamus ( PVT ) in the processing of reward‐associated cues. However, the specific role of the …

From prediction to action: dissociable roles of ventral tegmental area and substantia nigra dopamine neurons in instrumental reinforcement
Reward seeking requires the coordination of motor programs to achieve goals. Midbrain
dopamine neurons are critical for reinforcement, and their activation is sufficient for learning …
