Cholinergic inhibition of ventral midbrain dopamine neurons.
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors are common throughout the CNS. The predominant subtypes in the brain are positively coupled to phosphoinositide hydrolysis and have been found to modulate multiple conductances. Muscarinic receptor activation is most often observed to be excitatory because of suppression of various potassium conductances. Here it is reported that three distinct effects of musc...
متن کاملNoradrenergic inhibition of midbrain dopamine neurons.
Receptors that couple to phosphoinositide hydrolysis, which include metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) and muscarinic receptors, are known to either activate or inhibit the activity of dopamine cells depending on the pattern of receptor activation. Transient activation of alpha1 adrenoceptors with norepinephrine (NE) resulted in an outward current in midbrain dopamine neurons recorded in...
متن کاملMidbrain dopamine neurons control judgment of time.
Our sense of time is far from constant. For instance, time flies when we are having fun, and it slows to a trickle when we are bored. Midbrain dopamine neurons have been implicated in variable time estimation. However, a direct link between signals carried by dopamine neurons and temporal judgments is lacking. We measured and manipulated the activity of dopamine neurons as mice judged the durat...
متن کاملThe Reward Signal of Midbrain Dopamine Neurons.
Dopamine projections from the midbrain to striatum and frontal cortex play a major role in behavioral reactions controlled by rewards. Recent experiments have shown that dopamine neurons code the discrepancy between the prediction and occurrence of rewards and in this way signal a crucial learning term for approach behavior.
متن کاملBrief Communications Midbrain Dopamine Neurons: Projection Target Determines Action Potential Duration and Dopamine D2 Receptor Inhibition
Broad action potentials (APs) and dopamine (DA) D2 receptor (D2R)-mediated inhibition are widely used to identify midbrain DA neurons. However, when these measures are taken alone they do not predict DA content in ventral tegmental area (VTA) neurons. In fact, some VTA neuronal properties correlate better with projection target than neurotransmitter content. Here we report that amygdala (AMYG)-...
