Sex differences in mouse infralimbic cortex projections to the nucleus accumbens shell
Abstract Background The nucleus accumbens (NAc) is an important region in motivation and reward. Glutamatergic inputs from the infralimbic cortex (ILC) to the shell region of the NAc (NAcSh) have been implicated in driving the motivation to seek reward through repeated action-based behavior.
