Optogenetic activation of NeuroD6 VTA neurons induces place preference. (A) Schematic drawing of the real-time place preference (RT-PP) experimental setup. (BD) average percentage of time spent in each compartment during 4 days of RT-PP ± SEM (bar graphs; right; *p < 0.05, ***p < 0.001 vs. light-paired compartment; #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01, ###p < 0.001 vs. unpaired compartment). DAT-Cre, n = 10; NEX-Cre, n = 5, high-power stimulation of bilaterally-injected NEX-Cre mice, n = 4. Reprinted from Bimpisidis et al., 2019 [102].
