Rostromedial tegmental nucleus : ウィキペディア英語版 | Rostromedial tegmental nucleus The rostromedial tegmental nucleus (RMTg) – also known as the tail of the ventral tegmental area (tVTA) – is a GABAergic nucleus which functions as a "master brake" for the dopamine system. It is poorly differentiated from the rest of the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and possesses robust functional and structural links to the dopamine pathways.〔〔 Notably, both acute and chronic exposure to psychostimulants have been shown to induce FosB and ΔFosB expression in the RMTg;〔〔 no other drug type has been shown to induce these proteins in the RMTg.〔 ==Inputs== The RMTg receives incoming projections from the following structures:〔 *Medial prefrontal cortex *Cingulate cortex *Preoptic area *Lateral hypothalamus *Lateral habenula *Superior colliculus *Periaqueductal gray *Dorsal raphe *Laterodorsal tegmental nucleus *Substantia nigra *Nucleus accumbens *Pontine tegmentum *Ventral pallidum
