Neuro Unit 5: How do our choices change our brains? Unit 5.2: Drugs of abuse alter synaptic transmission

Do Now: Addictive drugs increase synaptic transmission in the reward pathway. Brainstorms ways that drugs could increase synaptic signaling.

The Brain’s Reward Circuit Human Brain Rat Brain PFC NAc VTA

The Brain’s Reward Circuit Prefrontal Cortex VTA NAc

Synaptic Transmission 2. Voltage-gated Ca2+ channels open. Ca2+ flows into cell 3. Ca2+ sensitive proteins fuse synaptic vesicles to membrane, releasing dopamine into synaptic cleft 4. Dopamine binds to postsynaptic receptors. Ca2+ 1. Action Potential in VTA Dopamine 6. Excess dopamine is pumped back into presynaptic cell. 5. Ion channels open on postsynaptic membrane, allowing ions to flow into cell.

How do drugs of abuse alter synaptic transmission???
