Closing the loop on impulsivity via nucleus accumbens delta-band activity in mice and man

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2017
Significance We reveal prominent delta oscillations in the nucleus accumbens preceding food reward in mice and use them to guide responsive neurostimulation to suppress binge-like behavior.

Effort discounting in human nucleus accumbens [PDF]

open access: yesCognitive, Affective, & Behavioral Neuroscience, 2009
A great deal of behavioral and economic research suggests that the value attached to a reward stands in inverse relation to the amount of effort required to obtain it, a principle known as effort discounting. In the present article, we present the first direct evidence for a neural analogue of effort discounting.

Deciphering the skeletal interoceptive circuitry to control bone homeostasis

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
This review introduces the skeletal interoceptive circuitry, covering the ascending signals from bone tissues to the brain (sensors), the central neural circuits that integrate this information and dispatch commands (CPU), and the descending pathways that regulate bone homeostasis (effectors).

Evaluation of the effect of orexin-1 receptors in the nucleus accumbens shell on cost-benefit decision making in male rats

open access: yesFiyz̤, 2019
Background: Cost-benefit decision-making is a one of the decision-making models in which the animal achieves a final benefit (reward) by evaluating the cost (effort or delay).

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

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.

Increased colonic propionate reduces anticipatory reward responses in the human striatum to high-energy foods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), metabolites produced through the microbial fermentation of nondigestible dietary components, have key roles in energy homeostasis.

Infant Death due to Cannabis Ingestion

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A child died in the emergency room of a local hospital a few hours after ingesting a substance the color of cork and the consistency of earth. At home, a modest amount of resinous substance was found. At the hospital, the child exhibited alterations in walking, balance, and consciousness.

Ensemble coding in the nucleus accumbens [PDF]

open access: yesPsychobiology, 1999
The nucleus accumbens may be involved in cognitive functions via its control of thalamocortical activity feeding back to the prefrontal cortex. Functional neuronal ensembles, or changes in the spatial and temporal distribution of active and inactive neurons, may mediate information processing in the accumbens.

Neurobiology and Cognition in Girls at High‐Risk of Eating Disorders: Exploring Imaging‐Derived Trait Markers

open access: yesEuropean Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Eating disorders (EDs) are serious psychiatric disorders characterized by impairments in neurocognition and altered brain structure. To date the majority of studies have investigated these in acutely ill or recovered individuals.
