To overcome the limitations of fast scan cyclic voltammetry (FSCV) to discriminate between catecholamines, we discuss new approaches to monitor the dynamics of these neurochemicals with high spatial, genetic, and temporal specificity.
The neuroimaging techniques such as dopaminergic imaging using Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) with Tc-TRODAT-1 have been employed to detect the stages of Parkinson's disease (PD). In this retrospective study, a total of 202 Tc-TRO...
Food exploration is an essential survival behavior in organisms. To find food efficiently, many organisms use a foraging strategy called area-restricted search (ARS) wherein individuals first turn more frequently, restricting their search to one area...
Dopamine has a major behavioral impact related to drug dependence, learning and memory functions, as well as pathologies such as schizophrenia and Parkinson's disease. Phasic release of dopamine can be measured in vivo with fast-scan cyclic voltammet...

BACKGROUND: Theoretical models have emphasized systems-level abnormalities in major depressive disorder (MDD). For unbiased yet rigorous evaluations of pathophysiological mechanisms underlying MDD, it is critically important to develop data-driven ap...
Catecholamine neurotransmitters, specifically, dopamine (DA), epinephrine (EP), and norepinephrine (NE), are known as substantial indicators of various neurological diseases. Developing rapid detection methods capable of simultaneously screening thei...
In the last few years, the importance of measuring gait characteristics has increased tenfold due to their direct relationship with various neurological diseases. As patients suffering from Parkinson's disease (PD) are more prone to a movement disord...

Recent findings suggest that acetylcholine mediates uncertainty-seeking behaviors through its projection to dopamine neurons - another neuromodulatory system known for its major role in reinforcement learning and decision-making. In this paper, we pr...
An extension of the prediction error theory of dopamine, imported from artificial intelligence, represents the full distribution over future rewards rather than only the average and better explains dopamine responses.
The analysis of neurotransmitters in the brain helps to understand brain functions and diagnose Parkinson's disease. Pharmacological inhibition experiments, electrophysiological measurement of action potentials, and mass analysers have been applied f...
