Dopamine axons to dorsal striatum encode contralateral stimuli and actions

Abstract: Midbrain dopamine neurons play key roles in decision-making by regulating reward valuation and actions. These roles are thought to depend on dopamine neurons innervating striatum. In addition to actions and rewards, however, efficient decisions often involve consideration of uncertain sensory signals. The functions of striatal dopamine during sensory decisions remains unknown. We trained mice in a task that probed decisions based on sensory evidence and reward value, and recorded the activity of striatal dopam… Show more

“…In both neuronal populations, more neurons showed opposite significant lap-trajectory preferences (red clusters) between delay and reward sections, as opposed to a small minority of neurons that elicited the same lap-trajectory preference (green clusters). Notably, in agreement with earlier studies reporting preferential contralateral responses of DA neurons ( Kim et al, 2015 ; Parker et al, 2016 ; Engelhard et al, 2019 ; Lee et al, 2019 ; Moss et al, 2020 ), the majority of memory-specific neurons exhibited a preference for the contralateral lap trajectory to that of the recording site (left hemisphere). Accordingly, seventeen (17) of the twenty-three (23) DA neurons with trajectory-specific activities in the delay period of the memory task, elicited a significant preference for the right trials and only five (5) of them for the left trials.…”

“…The asymmetry in the ensemble response patterns between dSPNs and iSPNs could be attributed to the differential synaptic strength in the cortical or thalamic input to different subtypes of SPNs, or could also be due to lateralized dopaminergic input 41 , and may depend on dopamine-dependent plasticity 42 . The mechanism for the regulation of synaptic input from the cortical and thalamic neurons encoding different sensory and motor variables during behavior and training is an important subject to be further investigated in the future.…”
