Pedunculopontine arousal system(Ft physiology—effects of psychostimulant abuse

This review describes the interactions between the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN), the ventral tegmental area (VTA), and the thalamocortical system. Experiments using mod­ulators of cholinergic receptors in the PPN clarified its role on psychostimulant-induced locomotion. PPN activation was found to...
