Nucleus accumbens dopamine depletion impairs both acquisition and performance of appetitive Pavlovian approach behaviour: implications for mesoaccumbens dopamine function.

TL;DR: NAcc dopamine not only plays a role in conditioned behavioural activation, but also in making the appropriate discriminated response i.e. the direction of response, which implies that mesoaccumbens dopamine may play differential roles in the learning and performance of preparatory Pavlovian conditioning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Profile of Executive and Memory Function Associated with Amphetamine and Opiate Dependence
TL;DR: While performance of female drug users was normal, male drug users showed significant impairment compared to both their female counterparts and male controls, and there was no difference in performance between current and former drug users.
Journal ArticleDOI
L-DOPA disrupts activity in the nucleus accumbens during reversal learning in Parkinson's disease.
TL;DR: Functional magnetic resonance imaging in patients with mild Parkinson's disease shows that L-DOPA modulated reversal-related activity in the nucleus accumbens, but not in the dorsal striatum or the prefrontal cortex, indicating an important role for the human nucleus accumens in the dopaminergic modulation of reversal learning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential Regulation of Fronto-Executive Function by the Monoamines and Acetylcholine
TL;DR: Evidence is reviewed to support the hypothesis that the monoamines, dopamine, noradrenaline, and serotonin augment the different types of executive operation that are recruited and performed within these states via a synergistic interaction with the PFC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Depletion of unilateral striatal dopamine impairs initiation of contralateral actions and not sensory attention
TL;DR: Two lines of evidence are presented that show that unilateral striatal DA depletion in the rat does not affect sensory attention to visual signals of reward, but rather impairs the initiation (though not the completion) of contralateral motor acts.
