Effects of age and sex on photoperiod modulation of nucleus accumbens monoamine content and release in adolescence and adulthood

open access: yesNeurobiology of Sleep and Circadian Rhythms
Day length, or photoperiod, is a reliable environmental cue encoded by the brain's circadian clock that indicates changing seasons and induces seasonal biological processes.

Adeno-associated virus (AAV)-mediated suppression of Ca2+/calmodulin kinase IV activity in the nucleus accumbens modulates emotional behaviour in mice

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2007
Background Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IV (CaMKIV) controls activity-dependent gene transcription by regulating the activity of the cyclic AMP response element binding protein (CREB). This signaling pathway is involved in gating emotional

Anatomical Progression of Neuropathology in FTLD‐TDP Type C and Linkage to Annexin A11

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Frontotemporal lobar degenerations (FTLD)‐TDP type C (TDP‐C) is distinguished from other FTLD‐TDP subtypes by 3 unique features: (1) invariable onset in the anterior temporal lobe (ATL), (2) phosphorylated TDP‐43 (pTDP) neurites in cortex, and (3) colocalization of all pTDP deposits with annexin A11 (ANXA11).

VTA glutamatergic inputs to nucleus accumbens drive aversion by acting on GABAergic interneurons

open access: yesNature Neuroscience, 2016
The ventral tegmental area (VTA) is best known for its dopamine neurons, some of which project to nucleus accumbens (nAcc). However, the VTA also has glutamatergic neurons that project to nAcc.

Distinct thalamic functional connectivity and volume patterns across focal epilepsies in children: A multimodal neuroimaging study

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The thalamus is a key hub in seizure propagation, and its nuclei are emerging targets for neuromodulation. However, the contributions of individual nuclei to epileptic networks remain unclear, particularly in children, who are less studied than adults.

Nucleus accumbens deep brain stimulation in adult patients suffering from severe and enduring anorexia nervosa (STIMARS): protocol for a pilot study

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry
BackgroundAffecting adolescent and young adults, anorexia nervosa (AN) has the highest death rate of all mental disorders. Effective treatment options are lacking and a significant proportion of patients develop severe and chronic forms of the disease ...

Is Deep Brain Stimulation a viable treatment for substance-related addiction? [PDF]

open access: yesRomanian Journal of Neurology, 2019
For the ability to modulate the activity of dysregulated networks Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) of areas involved in reward system and motivational states may have a potential application in addiction despite risks associated with its invasiveness.

Activation of D2 dopamine receptor-expressing neurons in the nucleus accumbens increases motivation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Striatal dopamine receptor D1-expressing neurons have been classically associated with positive reinforcement and reward, whereas D2 neurons are associated with negative reinforcement and aversion. Here we demonstrate that the pattern of activation of D1

Neuroanatomical and functional correlates in borderline personality disorder: A narrative review

open access: yesIbrain, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 19-31, Spring 2025.
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is considered a dysfunctional, stable, and pervasive alteration in personality functioning with the inability to adapt to the environment, mental rigidity, and ego‐syntonic, and like all personality disorders is a consistent pattern of inner experience and behavior that deviates markedly from the expectations of ...

The bivalent side of the nucleus accumbens [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2009
An increasing body of evidence suggests that the nucleus accumbens (NAcc) is engaged in both incentive reward processes and in adaptive responses to conditioned and unconditioned aversive stimuli. Yet, it has been argued that NAcc activation to aversive stimuli may be a consequence of the rewarding effects of their termination, i.e., relief. To address
