Vomeronasal inputs to the rodent ventral striatum

Brain Research Bulletin, 2008
Vertebrates sense chemical signals through the olfactory and vomeronasal systems. In squamate reptiles, which possess the largest vomeronasal system of all vertebrates, the accessory olfactory bulb projects to the nucleus sphericus, which in turn projects to a portion of the ventral striatum known as olfactostriatum.

Neuronal responses in the ventral striatum of the behaving macaque

Behavioural Brain Research, 1993
To analyse the functioning of the ventral striatum, the responses of more than 1,000 single neurons were recorded in a region which included the nucleus accumbens and olfactory tubercle in 5 macaque monkeys. While the monkeys performed visual discrimination and related feeding tasks, the different populations of neurons found included neurons which ...

Opioid modulation of taste hedonics within the ventral striatum

Physiology and Behavior, 2002
There is a long-standing interest in the role of endogenous opioid peptides in feeding behavior and, in particular, in the modulation of food reward and palatability. Since drugs such as heroin, morphine, alcohol, and cannabinoids, interact with this system, there may be important common neural substrates between food and drug reward with regard to the

The Ventral Striatum of the Syrian Hamster

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1999
The Syrian hamster, Mesocricetus auratus, was first used in laboratory experiments some fifty years ago in the Middle East, from animals captured in the wild. 1 Since then the Syrian hamster has been domesticated and used extensively in laboratory studies of motivation, includuing reproduction, feeding, aggression and circadian behaviors.

The Concept of the Ventral Striatum in Nonhuman Primates

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1999
ABSTRACT: The concept of the ventral striatum was first put forth by Heimer and Wilson to describe the extension of basal ganglia elements into the olfactory tubercle. The ventral striatum includes the conventional nucleus accumbens, which has been closely associated with reward and motivation.

Putting a spin on the dorsal–ventral divide of the striatum

Trends in Neurosciences, 2004
Since its conception three decades ago, the idea that the striatum consists of a dorsal sensorimotor part and a ventral portion processing limbic information has sparked a quest for functional correlates and anatomical characteristics of the striatal divisions.

Primate striatonigral projections: A comparison of the sensorimotor‐related striatum and the ventral striatum

Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1994
AbstractThe striatum receives topographic cortical inputs with the limbic lobe terminating in the ventral striatum and sensorimotor cortical regions terminating in the dorsolateral striatum. The organization of striatonigral projections originating from these different striatal territories was examined in primate by using several anterograde tracers ...

Smoking-Induced Ventral Striatum Dopamine Release

American Journal of Psychiatry, 2004
Substantial evidence from animal models demonstrates that dopamine release in the ventral striatum underlies the reinforcing properties of nicotine. The authors used [(11)C]raclopride bolus-plus-continuous-infusion positron emission tomography (PET) to determine smoking-induced ventral striatum dopamine release in humans.Twenty nicotine-dependent ...
