The dorsal striatum is regarded as a substrate for action selection and motor habits, but much of it is connected to sensory, not motor, cortex. In this issue of Neuron, Reig and Silberberg (2014) use intracellular recording to reveal connections between sensory cortex and striatum.

In the mid-19th century, a misconception was born, which understandably persists in the minds of many neuroscientists today. The eminent scientist Albert von Kölliker named a tubular-shaped piece of tissue found in the brains of all mammals studied to date, the tuberculum olfactorium - or what is commonly known as the olfactory tubercle (OT).

Autophagic bias in the striatum [PDF]
Macroautophagy/autophagy is implicated in the maintenance of normal neuronal activity through the regulation of synaptic function and plasticity. However, differences in autophagic degradation within different classes of neurons have not been examined.

Laterality hotspots in the striatum [PDF]
Abstract Striatal loci are connected to both the ipsilateral and contralateral frontal cortex. Normative quantitation of the dissimilarity between striatal loci’s hemispheric connection profiles and its spatial variance across the striatum, and assessment of how interindividual differences relate to function, stands to further the ...

Contextual novelty changes reward representations in the striatum [PDF]
Reward representation in ventral striatum is boosted by perceptual novelty, although the mechanism of this effect remains elusive. Animal studies indicate a functional loop (Lisman and Grace, 2005) that includes hippocampus, ventral striatum, and ...

A new functional role for lateral inhibition in the striatum: Pavlovian conditioning [PDF]
The striatum has long been implicated in reinforcement learning and has been suggested by several neurophysiological studies as the substrate for encoding the reward value of stimuli.

The neuromodulator histamine is released throughout the brain during periods of wakefulness. Combined with an abundant expression of histamine receptors, this suggests potential widespread histaminergic control of neural circuit activity. However, the effect of histamine on many of these circuits is unknown.

Striatal dopamine transmission is subtly modified in human A53Tα-synuclein overexpressing mice [PDF]
Mutations in, or elevated dosage of, SNCA, the gene for α-synuclein (α-syn), cause familial Parkinson's disease (PD). Mouse lines overexpressing the mutant human A53Tα-syn may represent a model of early PD.
