Directed Communication between Nucleus Accumbens and Neocortex in Humans Is Differentially Supported by Synchronization in the Theta and Alpha Band. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Here, we report evidence for oscillatory bi-directional interactions between the nucleus accumbens and the neocortex in humans. Six patients performed a demanding covert visual attention task while we simultaneously recorded brain activity from deep ...

Opioid-Mediated Astrocyte–Neuron Signaling in the Nucleus Accumbens
Cells, 2019 Major hallmarks of astrocyte physiology are the elevation of intracellular calcium in response to neurotransmitters and the release of neuroactive substances (gliotransmitters) that modulate neuronal activity.

Anterior cingulate inputs to nucleus accumbens control the social transfer of pain and analgesia
Science, 2021 Social Transmission of pain and relief In mice, both pain and fear can be transferred by short social contact from one animal to a bystander. Neurons in a brain region called the anterior cingulate cortex in the bystander animal mediate these transfers ...

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022 BackgroundPrelimbic cortical projections to the nucleus accumbens core are critical for cue-induced cocaine seeking, but the identity of the accumbens neuron(s) targeted by this projection, and the transient neuroadaptations contributing to relapse ...
