Deficiency of orexin receptor type 1 in dopaminergic neurons increases novelty-induced locomotion and exploration
Orexin signaling in the ventral tegmental area and substantia nigra promotes locomotion and reward processing, but it is not clear whether dopaminergic neurons directly mediate these effects. We show that dopaminergic neurons in these areas mainly express orexin receptor subtype 1 (Ox1R). In contras...
