Inhibition of dopamine neurons prevents incentive value encoding of a reward cue:With revelations from deep phenotyping

Amanda G. Iglesias, Alvin S. Chiu, Jason W.H. Wong, Paolo Campus, Fei Ran Li, Zitong Liu, Jasmine K. Bhatti, Shiv A. Patel, Karl A. Deisseroth, Huda Akil, Christian R. Burgess, Shelly B. Flagel

The paper shows that inhibiting VTA dopamine neurons during reward cue presentation prevents sign-tracking behavior, confirming dopamine's role in encoding incentive value.
