Linked Claims

Claim 1causal modulationsupports2022Source 1DOIPubMed

Optogenetic or chemogenetic manipulation of lateral septum neurotensin neurons and their downstream connections modulates social interaction and social reward.

Claim 2interpretive mechanismsupports2022Source 1DOIPubMed

Hyperactive lateral septum neurotensin neurons in susceptible mice may cause previously rewarding social targets to be perceived as social threats, thereby occluding social reward processing.

Claim 3mechanistic associationsupports2022Source 1DOIPubMed

Stress- or threat-responsive lateral septum neurotensin neurons are activated by juvenile social interactions only in susceptible mice, not in resilient or unstressed control mice.
