Brief dopaminergic stimulations produce transient physiological changes in prefrontal pyramidal neurons
2011, Brain ResearchCitation Excerpt :This “phasic mode” of DA release is thought to be important for proper functions of the prefrontal cortex, PFC (Williams and Goldman-Rakic, 1995; Schultz, 1998; Heien and Wightman, 2006). Since it is technically impossible to precisely control dopamine release during elaborate experimental paradigms by simply shocking the midbrain (Lewis and O'Donnell, 2000), researchers have mimicked transient DA release by iontophoretic application of dopamine via glass pipettes inserted into the cortex of awake monkeys (Sesack and Bunney, 1989; Matsumura et al., 1990; Williams and Goldman-Rakic, 1995; Sawaguchi, 2001; Vijayraghavan et al., 2007). Although these experiments highlight the importance of DA in PFC, the cellular mechanisms by which DA modulates PFC function, specifically in terms of its influence on single cell activity, remain largely unknown.
