Dynamic imbalances in cell-type specific striatal ensemble activity during visually guided locomotion.

|
By Mark W. Howe, Yuxin Tong, Brenna Fearey, Andrew Alexander
| BioRxiv
Abstract Locomotion is continuously regulated by an animals position within an environment relative to goals. Direct and indirect pathway striatal output neurons (dSPNs and iSPNs) influence locomotion, but how their activity is naturally coordinated by changing environments is unknown. We found, in head-fixed mice, that the relative balance of dSPN and iSPN activity was dynamically modulated with respect to position within a visually-guided locomotor trajectory to retrieve reward.
