The lateral habenula (LHb) is part of the habenular complex in the dorsal diencephalon. The
LHb is an important regulator of several neurotransmitter systems in the midbrain; …

The lateral habenula (LHb) is hyperactive in depression, and thus potentiating inhibition of
this structure makes an interesting target for future antidepressant therapies. However, the …

Interest in the habenula has greatly increased in recent years. The habenula is a small brain
structure located posterior to the thalamus and adjacent to the third ventricle. Despite its …

The habenula (Hb) is an evolutionary well-conserved structure located in the epithalamus.
The Hb receives inputs from the septum, basal ganglia, hypothalamus, anterior cingulate …

The lateral habenula (LHb) has a key role in integrating a variety of neural circuits
associated with reward and aversive behaviors. There is limited information about how the …

The lateral habenula (LHb) has recently been identified as a key regulator of the reward
system by driving inhibition onto dopaminergic neurons. However, the nature and potential …

The habenula is a complex nucleus composed of lateral and medial subnuclei, which
connect between the limbic forebrain and midbrain. Over the past few years, the lateral …

The habenula (Hb) is a central structure connecting forebrain to midbrain regions. This
microstructure regulates monoaminergic systems, notably dopamine and serotonin, and …

Emerging preclinical and clinical evidence indicate that the lateral habenula plays a major
role in the pathophysiology of depressive illness. Aberrant increases in neuronal activity in …

The habenula is a small, bilateral brain structure located at the dorsal end of the
diencephalon. This structure sends projections to the dopaminergic striatum and receives …
