Can there be a “little brain” in the heart?
This is one of the “out of the box” project that we performed as KizilLab and
AmpatzisLab. Huge thanks to Andrea, Kostas and Caghan 🤘🏻

The ‘go’ and ‘no-go’ pathways in the basal ganglia are not the only pathways that control movement, as a new study reveals two additional circuits that modulate dopamine and movement.

Check also our recent paper in Current Biology on how striosomes regulate dopamine in the dorsal striatum via dual pathways that parallel canonical basal ganglia circuits.

(first post in this platform) happy to share our new paper on visual-based center-surround interactions in the superior colliculus, showcasing a general approach to dissect local circuit computations. @NeuroAlc
We demonstrate here that astrocytes in the striatum interact with striatal dopamine in bidirectional signaling with dopamine release actively driving surges in astrocytic Ca++, which in turn modulate ...

The two novel pathways control dopamine release in opposing ways and may link motivation and mood to action, a new study shows.
Lazaridis et al. delineate a previously unrecognized pair of striosomal direct D1 and indirect D2 circuits that target substantia nigra dopamine-containing neurons, controllers of mood, action, and reinforcement learning. These striosomal circuits have effects opposing those of the canonical D1-direct/D2-indirect pathways, likely modulating them.

Progressive degeneration of dopamine neurons (DANs) defines Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the identity and function of the most vulnerable DAN populations in prodromal PD remain undefined. Here, ...
