To investigate the involvement of the hippocampal-accumbens system in goal-oriented displacement behaviors, hippocampal neuronal activity was recorded in rats learning and recalling new distributions of different volumes of liquid reward among the arms of a plus maze. Each arm had a reward box conta

The neural connections from the nucleus accumbens to the mediodorsal nucleus of the thalamus were investigated in urethane-anesthetized rats. Extracellular recordings were made from 84 spontaneously firing neurons in the mediodorsal nucleus of the thalamus while the nucleus accumbens was electricall
The effect of the D2-antagonist raclopride was investigated in two test situations, which are presumed to involve dopamine (DA) transmission within the nucleus accumbens of the rat. Local injection of d-amphetamine sulphate (10 gg/0.5 gl) produced a marked increase in motor activity, measured as mot
