medial forebrain bundle

The third was connected to the part of the brain's pleasure center, the medial forebrain bundle.

From here, these neurons project throughout the brain, to the cortex through the medial forebrain bundle.

It travels around the brain along the medial forebrain bundle and acts on serotonin receptors.

In rodent physiology, scientists reason that the medial forebrain bundle is the pleasure center of rats.

Electrical stimulation of the medial forebrain bundle is believed to cause sensations of pleasure.

The tract is a continuation of the medial forebrain bundle in the lateral portion of the tegmentum.

"Characteristics of spatiotemporal integration in the priming and rewarding effects of medial forebrain bundle stimulation".

The VTA communicates with the nucleus accumbens via the medial forebrain bundle.

Projections to areas caudal to the hypothalamus go through the medial forebrain bundle, the mammillotegmental tract and the dorsal longitudinal fasciculus.

Other axons arising from these cells descend through the medial forebrain bundle to terminate in a region dorsal to the interpeduncular nucleus.

The olfactory tubercle also consist of heterogeneous elements such as medial forebrain bundle and has a ventral extension of the striatal complex.

BSR to the medial forebrain bundle (MFB) through either electrical or chemical means activates the neural pathways leading to natural drives.

Of these pathways, the mesolimbic pathway plays the major role, and goes from the ventral tegmental area (VTA) via the medial forebrain bundle to nucleus accumbens.

The Medial forebrain bundle (MFB), is a complex bundle of axons coming from the basal olfactory regions, the periamygdaloid region, and the septal nuclei.

This is most likely because the medial forebrain bundle carries information from the ventral tegmental area (VTA) to the nucleus accumbens (nAcc or Acb).

One sends a signal that makes the rat turn left, the other makes it turn right and the third stimulates the "medial forebrain bundle," causing sensations of intense pleasure to the rat.

A remotely-guided rat, popularly called a ratbot or robo-rat, is a rat with electrodes implanted in the medial forebrain bundle (MFB) and sensorimotor cortex of its brain.

According to Myles Brandon Bogner: "Pacrat's actions are driven by eight brain centers: amygdala, cingulate gyrus, hippocampus, hypothalamus, isocortex, medial forebrain bundle, reticular ascending substance, and the thalamus.

Sites along the length of the medial forebrain bundle (MFB) through the lateral and posterior hypothalamus, the ventral tegmental area (VTA), and into the pons are associated with the strongest reward effects of stimulation.

The plug was snapped into a jack surgically implanted in her skull, and from the jack tiny wires snaked their way through the wet jelly to the hypothalamus, to the specific place in the medial forebrain bundle where the major pleasure center of her brain was located.

Other fibers from this region project through the stria medullaris to the medial and lateral habenular nuclei, the paratenial and anteromedial nucleus of the thalamus, and through the medial forebrain bundle to the pars posterior of the medial mammillary nucleus.
