Excitatory synaptic transmission is differentially modulated by opioid receptors along the claustro-cingulate pathway

Jacob M. Reeves, Erwin R. Arias‐Hervert, Gracianne Kmiec, William T. Birdsong

This study examines how opioid receptors modulate excitatory synaptic transmission in the claustro-cingulate pathway using spatial transcriptomics and electrophysiology in mice, revealing receptor-specific effects.

Chronic morphine induces adaptations in opioid receptor signaling in a thalamo-cortico-striatal circuit that are projection-dependent, sex-specific and regulated by mu opioid receptor phosphorylation

Elizabeth R. Jaeckel, Erwin R. Arias‐Hervert, Alberto L. Perez-Medina…·William T. Birdsong

This study shows chronic morphine induces sex-specific, projection-dependent adaptations in MOR signaling in thalamo-cortico-striatal circuits, mediated by MOR phosphorylation.

The Endogenous Opioid Met-Enkephalin Modulates Thalamo-Cortical Excitation Inhibition Balance in a Medial Thalamus-Anterior Cingulate Cortex Circuit

Erwin R. Arias‐Hervert, William T. Birdsong

This study shows that endogenous opioid Met-Enkephalin modulates thalamo-cortical excitation-inhibition balance by preferentially inhibiting GABAergic transmission in the ACC.
