Harnessing axonal transport to map reward circuitry: Differing brain-wide projections from medial prefrontal cortical domains
Neurons project long axons that contact other distant neurons. Neurons in the medial prefrontal cortex project into the limbic system to regulate responses to reward or threat. Diminished neural activity in prefrontal cortex is associated with loss of executive function leading to drug use, yet the...
