The nucleus accumbens septi receives inputs from dopaminergic neurons of the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and glutamatergic neurons of the ventral subiculum (VS). The convergence of these inputs in the NAS is important for the normal expression of exploratory locomotion; stimulation of the VS by inj
Converging evidence suggests that dopamine (DA) transmission in nucleus accumbens (NAcc) is modulated locally by an excitatory amino acid (EAA)containing input possibly originating in medial prefrontal cortex (PFC). In the present study, we examined the effects of intra-NAcc administration of EAA re
