Stimulating a NTS to LC circuit elicits anxiety-like behavior andstate-dependent autonomic output.
Understanding how the brain integrates internal bodily signals to shape behavior is essential for characterizing the neural basis of interoception. Here, we investigate whether the nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS), a brainstem hub for viscerosensory input, communicates with the locus coeruleus (LC), a noradrenergic nucleus involved in arousal and cognition, to influence anxiety-like behavior.…
