Cholinergic-dependent dopamine signals in mouse dorsomedial striatum are regulated by frontal but not sensory cortices

Hannah C Goldbach, Rachele Rimondini, Evan S. Swanson, Jung Hoon Shin, Michael E. Authement, Lucy G. Anderson, Han Bin Kwon, Ronald F. Paletzki, Charles R. Gerfen, Linda M. Amarante, Richard J. Krauzlis, Veronica A. Alvarez

The paper shows that visual stimuli evoke dopamine in the dorsomedial striatum via cholinergic-dependent mechanisms, driven by frontal cortices rather than sensory cortices.

Coherent theta activity in the medial and orbital frontal cortices encodes reward value

Linda M. Amarante, Mark Laubach

This study shows that theta rhythms in medial and orbital frontal cortices track reward magnitude and value during consumption, with MFC showing stronger coupling and top-down control.

Medial frontal theta is entrained to rewarded actions

Linda M. Amarante, Marcelo S. Caetano, Mark Laubach

The paper investigates how reward value is encoded by medial frontal cortex theta rhythms in rats during licking tasks, finding that theta rhythms are synchronized with rewarded actions and persist beyond fluid delivery.
