This study shows that ventral striatal astrocytes influence reinforcement learning by modulating decision noisiness and reward-guided choice through calcium dynamics.

This study shows ketamine rescues stress-induced anhedonia in mice by cell-type-specific adaptations and input-specific synaptic changes in the nucleus accumbens.

This study shows that synaptic Zn2+ enhances cocaine's effects on striatal dopamine neurotransmission and behavior by increasing DAT binding and altering locomotor responses.
