Treball Final de Grau en Psicologia. Codi: PS1048. Curs: 2021/2022Motivated behavior is characterized by high levels of activation, vigor and persistence. Effort-related decision-making is regulated by dopamine (DA) in the nucleus accumbens (Acc). The transcription factor Pitx3 is required for the development of midbrain dopaminergic neurons, its modification can alter DA levels. Pitx3-aphakia KO (APH KO) mice have low DA levels. In the present study, we evaluated the effect of dopaminergic modulation in male and female KO Pitx3-aphakia (APH KO) and control (WT) mice. After chronic administration of a DA precursor (L-DOPA 5 mg/kg), animals are tested on preference for selection of reinforcers with different effort requirements in the three...
