01 Dopaminergic circuits in Drosophila

Dopamine is an important neurotransmitter in mammals

Why we choose Drosophila as a model system for the study of dopamine

The brain of Drosophila melanogaster is comprised

of 100,000 neurons.

Dopamine regulates the same behavioral functions

both in mammals and flies.

Drosophila genes can be replaced by their human

orthologs.

The genetic tool box is useful.

The DA neuronal system in larval CNS

Maria Monastirioti. 1999

Three bilateral clusters, consisting of 4–6 neuronal

perikarya each, are located in DM, DL1, and DL2 positions

in the brain lobes.

The axonal projections of most of these DA cells extend

within the ipsilateral brain lobe following common axonal

tracts.

Sb, Abu, Th, ThL and AbL form two lateral rows,

symmetrically placed along the thoracic and abdominal

ganglia.

Reinforcement learning (aversive ) In drosophila

Octopamine is necessary for the

acquisition of sugar memory

DA is necessary for acquisition but not

retrieval of electric shock memory

signal to the MB

Reinforcement learning (reward ) In drosophila

Scott Waddell. 2010

Q: Why is dopamine considered a reward signal in mammal but a aversive signal in

drosophila?

The prior conclusion that DA was only required for aversive learning was drawn

from studies using a TH-GAL4 line that does not express in all of the fly’s DA

neurons

The DA neurons that are omitted by TH-GAL4 are those in the PAM cluster that

signal rewarding reinforcement

Q&A

Addiction In drosophila

Ethanol is both aversive and rewarding to flies

Addiction In drosophila

Dopamine is required for expression of ethanol reward

30 min after training 24hrs after training

Addiction In drosophila

30 min after training 24hrs after training

The mushroom body is required for aversion and preference

Addiction In drosophila

administration of low doses of cocaine and

nicotine
