by Justin Jackson, Phys.org edited by Sadie Harley, reviewed by Robert Egan Graphical abstract. Credit: Cell Stem Cell (2025). DOI: 10.1016/j.stem.2025.07.007 The Institute of Neuroscience, Chinese Academy of Sciences, reports that human stem cell-derived A10-like midbrain dopaminergic neurons integrate into mouse mesocorticolimbic circuits and suppress anxiety and depression behaviors upon activation. Midbrain dopaminergic neurons regulate voluntary movement, reward, motivation, cognition, and
