Extracellular single cell recording and microiontophoretic techniques were used to characterize the roles of ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs and mGluRs) in glutamate-induced excitation of rat nucleus accumbens (NAc) neurons in vivo. Pulse-ejected glutamate (16-128 nA) induced
CART (cocaine-and amphetamine-regulated transcript) peptides are proposed to play a role in the action of psychostimulants as neurotransmitters/ neuromodulators. In the present study, we demonstrate that the shell of the nucleus accumbens, a brain structure involved in drug reinforcement, is densel
