Impact of Mitofusin 2 in the Nucleus Accumbens on motivated behavior and underlying neurobiological mechanisms

Alessandro Chioino

The nucleus accumbens (NAc) is part of the ventral striatum and plays a major role in motivation and goal-directed behaviour. Increasing evidence implicates impairments in accumbal function in anxiety and depression, two conditions that are commonly accomp ...
