A septal-hypothalamic pathway drives orexin neurons, which is necessary for conditioned cocaine preference

Orexins (also called hypocretins) have been shown to be importantly involved in reward and addiction, but little is known about the circuitry that regulates orexin neuronal activity during drug-seeking behaviors. Here, we examined inputs to the lateral hypothalamus (LH) orexin cell field from the la...
