The Effects of Topiramate Applied to the Nucleus Accumbens Region on Morphine Withdrawal Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesNamık Kemal Tıp Dergisi, 2020
Aim:Nucleus accumbens, one of the nuclei of the basal ganglia, and dopamine, the neurotransmitter play a critical role in opioid dependence and withdrawal. In opioid withdrawal, the importance of neurotransmitters such as glutamate and gamma aminobutyric

Differential involvement of NMDA, AMPA/kainate, and dopamine receptors in the nucleus accumbens core in the acquisition and performance of pavlovian approach behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Stimuli paired with primary rewards can acquire emotional valence and the ability to elicit automatic, Pavlovian approach responses that have been shown to be mediated by the nucleus accumbens. The present experiment investigated the effects of infusions

Glutamate Afferents From the Medial Prefrontal Cortex Mediate Nucleus Accumbens Activation by Female Sexual Behavior

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2019
Low levels of desire and arousal are the primary sexual dysfunctions in women, necessitating neurobiological studies of sexual motivation in female animal models.

Allopregnanolone and Pentobarbital Infused Into the Nucleus Accumbens Substitute for the Discriminative Stimulus Effects of Ethanol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
BACKGROUND: The discriminative stimulus effects of ethanol are mediated in part by the gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA(A)) receptor system. We have previously shown that microinjections of the competitive GABA(A) agonist muscimol in the nucleus ...

An investigation into the function of single-neuron activity in the mesoaccumbens dopamine system of the rat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The mesoaccumbens dopamine system has been implicated in many basic psychological processes (e.g. "wanting" and "liking") and illnesses (e.g. addiction, depression, schizophrenia).

463 Childhood Emotional Neglect on Nucleus Accumbens Connectivity in Adult Survivors of Trauma

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Translational Science, 2023
OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Neuroimaging research has found that childhood maltreatment is related to reduced activation of the nucleus accumbens. The long-lasting impact of this relationship is not as well understood.

Dysconnectivity of the parafascicular nucleus in Parkinson's disease: A dynamic causal modeling analysis

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2023
Background: Recent animal model studies have suggested that the parafascicular nucleus has the potential to be an effective deep brain stimulation target for Parkinson's disease.

Nucleus accumbens facilitates nociception [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Neurology, 2011
We have previously demonstrated an opioid link in nucleus accumbens (NAc) that mediates antinociception produced by a novel ascending pain modulation pathway. For example, noxious stimulation induces heterosegmental antinociception that is mediated by both mu- and delta-opioid receptors in NAc.

Deep Brain Stimulation Reduces Conflict‐Related Theta and Error‐Related Negativity in Patients With Obsessive–Compulsive Disorder

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) is a psychiatric disorder with alterations of cortico‐striato‐thalamo‐cortical loops and impaired performance monitoring. Electrophysiological markers such as conflict‐related medial frontal theta (MFT) and error‐related negativity (ERN) may be altered by clinically effective deep brain ...
