Mu opioid receptor expression by nucleus accumbens inhibitory interneurons promotes affiliative social behavior

Carlee Toddes, Emilia M. Lefevre, Cassandra L. Retzlaff, Lauryn Zugschwert, Sameer Khan, Erin Myhre, Elysia A. Gauthier, Ezequiel Marrón Fernández de Velasco, Brigitte Lina Kieffer, Patrick E. Rothwell

The paper identifies nucleus accumbens inhibitory interneurons as a key site where mu opioid receptor expression promotes social behavior, distinct from its role in exogenous opioid sensitivity.

Mu Opioid Receptor Gene Dosage Influences Reciprocal Social Behaviors and Nucleus Accumbens Microcircuitry

Carlee Toddes, Emilia M. Lefevre, Dieter D. Brandner, Lauryn Zugschwert, Patrick E. Rothwell

This study shows that partial reduction of mu opioid receptor signaling in mice leads to social behavior deficits and changes in nucleus accumbens microcircuitry.
