TLDR
The results suggest a rather selective effect of amygdala-ventral striatal interactions on processes subserving conditioned reinforcement and a more fundamental influence of ventral subiculum- ventral Striatal interactions in mediating the psychomotor stimulant effects of D-amphetamine.

What is the role of dopamine in reward: hedonic impact, reward learning, or incentive salience?

TL;DR: It is suggested that dopamine may be more important to incentive salience attributions to the neural representations of reward-related stimuli and is a distinct component of motivation and reward.

Neural systems of reinforcement for drug addiction: from actions to habits to compulsion

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that the change from voluntary drug use to more habitual and compulsive drug use represents a transition at the neural level from prefrontal cortical to striatal control over drug seeking and drug taking behavior as well as a progression from ventral to more dorsal domains of the striatum, involving its dopaminergic innervation.

Drug addiction, dysregulation of reward, and allostasis.

TL;DR: The view that addiction is the pathology that results from an allostatic mechanism using the circuits established for natural rewards provides a realistic approach to identifying the neurobiological factors that produce vulnerability to addiction and relapse.

Emotion and motivation: the role of the amygdala, ventral striatum, and prefrontal cortex

TL;DR: The basolateral amygdala (BLA) appears to be required for a Pavlovian conditioned stimulus to gain access to the current value of the specific unconditioned stimulus (US) that it predicts, while the central nucleus of the amygdala acts as a controller of brainstem arousal and response systems, and subserves some forms of stimulus-response Pavlovia conditioning.

Developmental Neurocircuitry of Motivation in Adolescence: A Critical Period of Addiction Vulnerability

TL;DR: An exploration of developmental changes in neurocircuitry involved in impulse control has significant implications for understanding adolescent behavior, addiction vulnerability, and the prevention of addiction in adolescence and adulthood.

Parallel Organization of Functionally Segregated Circuits Linking Basal Ganglia and Cortex

TL;DR: The basal ganglia serve primarily to integrate diverse inputs from the entire cerebral cortex and to "funnel" these influences, via the ventrolateral thalamus, to the motor cortex.

D1 and D2 dopamine receptor-regulated gene expression of striatonigral and striatopallidal neurons

TL;DR: The differential effects of dopamine on striatonigral and striatopallidal neurons are mediated by their specific expression of D1 and D2 dopamine receptor subtypes, respectively.
