Dorsomedial striatal neuroinflammation causes excessive goal-directed action control by disrupting astrocyte function.

Abiero, AR Gladding, JM Iredale, JA Drury, HR Manning, EE Dayas, CV Dhungana, A Ganesan, K Turner, K Becchi, S Kendig, MD Nolan, C Balleine, B Castorina, A Cole, L Clemens, KJ Bradfield, LA

Compulsive actions are typically thought to reflect the dominance of habits over goal-directed action. To investigate this, we mimicked the striatal neuroinflammation that is frequently exhibited i...
