The ventral striatum (VS) receives input from the cerebral cortex and is modulated by midbrain dopaminergic projections in support of processing reward and motivation. Here we explored the organization of cortical regions linked to the human VS using within-individual functional connectivity MRI in intensively scanned participants. In two initial participants (scanned 31 sessions each), seed regions in the VS were preferentially correlated with distributed cortical regions that are part of the Salience (SAL) network. The VS seed region recapitulated SAL network topography in each individual including anterior and posterior midline regions, anterior insula, and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) - a topography that was distinct from a nearby striatal seed region. The region of DLPFC linked to the VS is positioned adjacent to regions associated with domain-flexible cognitive control. The full pattern was replicated in independent data from the same two individuals and generalized to 15 novel participants (scanned 8 or more sessions each). These results suggest that the VS forms a cortico-basal ganglia loop as part of the SAL network. The DLPFC is a neuromodulatory target to treat major depressive disorder. The present results raise the possibility that the DLPFC may be an effective neuromodulatory target because of its preferential coupling to the VS and suggests a path toward further personalization. |
