Chemical Neuromodulation of Goal-Directed Behavior

TL;DR: Empirical data and theories are reviewed which show that this trade-off depends on optimal modulation of frontostriatal circuitry by the major ascending neuromodulatory systems of dopamine, noradrenaline, and acetylcholine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systemic idazoxan impairs performance in a non-reversal shift test: implications for the role of the central noradrenergic systems in selective attention:

TL;DR: Rats treated with idazoxan were not impaired in the acquisition of either the spatial or visual discrimination task, but they were impaired in both forms of non-reversal shift, thus supporting a selective attention hypothesis of locus coeruleus function.

Serotonin depletion amplifies distinct human social emotions as a function of individual differences in personality

TL;DR: The findings show how individual differences in personality, when combined with fluctuations of serotonin, may produce diverse emotional phenotypes, which has implications for understanding vulnerability to psychopathology, determining who may be more sensitive to serotonin-modulating treatments, and casts new light on the functions of serotonin in emotional processing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantification of receptor-ligand binding potential in sub-striatal domains using probabilistic and template regions of interest.

TL;DR: ART spatial normalization combined with probabilistic ROIs and to a lesser extent template ROIs provides an efficient and accurate alternative to time-consuming manual sub-striatal ROI delineation per subject, especially when the parameter of interest is BP(ND) % change.
Journal ArticleDOI

Serotonergic Innervations of the Orbitofrontal and Medial-prefrontal Cortices are Differentially Involved in Visual Discrimination and Reversal Learning in Rats.

TL;DR: The understanding of serotonin in cognitive flexibility is extended by revealing differential effects within two subregions of the prefrontal cortex in visual discrimination and reversal learning.
