A Feud that Wasn't: Acetylcholine Evokes Dopamine Release in the Striatum

[摘要] In this issue of Neuron, Threlfell et al. (2012) report that synchronous activation of cholinergic interneurons evokes striatal dopamine release by activating presynaptic nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. These findings call for a fundamental reevaluation of the long-standing view that dopamine and acetylcholine ;;feud” over control of striatal circuitry.
