The Importance of Ventral Hippocampal Dopamine and Norepinephrine in Recognition Memory
Dopaminergic neurons originating from the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and the locus coeruleus are innervating the ventral hippocampus and are thought to play an essential role for efficient cognitive function. Moreover, these VTA projections are hypothesized to be part of a functional loop, in whic...
