Stimulation of in vivo dopamine transmission in the bed nucleus of stria terminalis by reinforcing drugs.
Drugs of abuse preferentially increase dopamine transmission in the shell of the nucleus accumbens. This area is considered as a transition between the striatum and the extended amygdala a complex neural system that includes the central amygdala and the bed nucleus of stria terminalis, areas that, like the nucleus accumbens shell, are heavily innervated by mesolimbic dopamine neurons originatin...
متن کاملPresynaptic muscarinic M(2) receptors modulate glutamatergic transmission in the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis.
The anterolateral cell group of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST(ALG)) serves as an important relay station in stress circuitry. Limbic inputs to the BNST(ALG) are primarily glutamatergic and activity-dependent changes in this input have been implicated in abnormal behaviors associated with chronic stress and addiction. Significantly, local infusion of acetylcholine (ACh) receptor ...
متن کاملPotent regulation of midbrain dopamine neurons by the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis.
Recent studies have revealed an important role of the ventrolateral (subcommissural) aspect of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (vBNST) in motivational aspects of drug abuse (Delfs et al., 2000). Dopaminergic (DA) neurons in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) have also long been linked to motivation and drug abuse (Koob and Le Moal, 2001). The present study tested whether activity in the v...
متن کاملMedullary taste responses are modulated by the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis.
Previous studies have shown a modulatory influence of limbic forebrain areas, such as the central nucleus of the amygdala and lateral hypothalamus, on the activity of taste-responsive cells in the nucleus of the solitary tract (NST). The bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BST), which receives gustatory afferent information, also sends descending axons to the NST. The present studies were desi...
متن کاملAllopregnanolone in the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis modulates contextual fear in rats
Trauma- and stress-related disorders are among the most common types of mental illness affecting the U.S. population. For many of these disorders, there is a striking sex difference in lifetime prevalence; for instance, women are twice as likely as men to be affected by posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Gonadal steroids and their metabolites have been implicated in sex differences in fear a...
