TLDR
The findings discussed here strengthen the view that incentive-motivational properties of food are coded by substrates and neural circuits that are distinguishable from those that mediate the acute hedonic experience of food reward.

The contribution of brain reward circuits to the obesity epidemic

TL;DR: It is suggested that it might be more useful to focus on overeating that results in frank obesity, and multiple health, interpersonal, and occupational negative consequences as a form of food "abuse".
Journal ArticleDOI

Beyond happiness: Building a science of discrete positive emotions.

TL;DR: The positive emotions are best described as branches of a “family tree” emerging from a common ancestor mediating adaptive management of fitness-critical resources (e.g., food) and a new theoretical framework is offered that accounts for core features as well as mechanisms for differentiation is offered.

Endocannabinoid Regulation of Reward and Reinforcement through Interaction with Dopamine and Endogenous Opioid Signaling

TL;DR: This review explores the interaction of eCBs and their receptors functionally interact with opioid systems within the NAc to support reward, most likely through augmenting DA release.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hindbrain nucleus tractus solitarius glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor signaling reduces appetitive and motivational aspects of feeding

TL;DR: Behavioral and pharmacological techniques and data demonstrate that the intake inhibitory effects of mNTS GLP-1R signaling extend beyond satiation and include effects on food reward and motivation that are typically ascribed to midbrain and forebrain neurons.
Journal ArticleDOI

A critical role of lateral hypothalamus in context-induced relapse to alcohol seeking after punishment-imposed abstinence

TL;DR: An important role of LH is demonstrated in renewal of alcohol seeking after punishment-imposed abstinence and a role of accumbens shell projections to LH is suggested in this form of relapse.

Functional architecture of basal ganglia circuits: neural substrates of parallel processing

TL;DR: Recent evidence indicating that a parallel functional architecture may also be characteristic of the organization within each individual circuit is discussed, which represents a significant departure from earlier concepts of basal ganglia organization.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.

Impact of sleep debt on metabolic and endocrine function

TL;DR: Sleep debt has a harmful impact on carbohydrate metabolism and endocrine function similar to those seen in normal ageing and, therefore, sleep debt may increase the severity of age-related chronic disorders.

Basal ganglia-thalamocortical circuits: parallel substrates for motor, oculomotor, "prefrontal" and "limbic" functions.

TL;DR: It now appears that at the level of the putamen such inputs remain segregated within the "motor" circuit, and it is difficult to imagine how such functional specificity could be maintained in the absence of strict topographic specificity within the sequential projections that comprise these two circuits.
