Chemogenetic Stimulation of Electrically Coupled Midbrain GABA Neurons in Alcohol Reward and Dependence

Chemogenetic Stimulation of Electrically Coupled Midbrain GABA Neurons in Alcohol Reward and Dependence

Show other versions (1)

The prevailing view is that enhancement of dopamine (DA) transmission in the mesolimbic system leads to the rewarding properties of alcohol. The mesolimbic DA system, which plays an important role in regulating reward and addiction, consists of DA neurons in the midbrain ventral tegmental area (VTA)...
