Thalamus orchestrates local acetylcholine-dependent dopamine release in the learning striatum

Andrew J. Miller-Hansen, Manhua Zhu, Ryan F. Kovaleski, Baran Demir, Talia N. Lerner

The paper shows that thalamic input drives acetylcholine-dependent dopamine release in the dorsomedial striatum during learning, but not in the dorsolateral striatum.

Region-specific Nucleus Accumbens Dopamine Signals Encode Distinct Aspects of Avoidance Learning

Gabriela C. Lopez, Louis D. Van Camp, Ryan F. Kovaleski, Michael D. Schaid, Oscar Andrés Moreno-Ramos, Awatramani B. Rajeshwar, Julia Cox, Talia N. Lerner

This study investigates how dopamine signals in different nucleus accumbens subregions contribute to avoidance learning by analyzing their responses to aversive stimuli and learning progress.
