Summary: Self-grooming is an innate stereotyped behavior influenced by sense and emotion. It is considered an important characteristic in various disease models. However, the neural circuit mechanism underlying sensory-induced and emotion-driven self-grooming remains unclear. We found that the ventral zona incerta (Ziv) was activated during spontaneous self-grooming (SG), corn oil-induced sensory self-grooming (OG), and tail suspension-induced stress self-grooming (TG). Optogenetic excitation of Ziv parvalbumin (PV) neurons increased the duration of SG. Conversely, optogenetic inhibition of ZivPV neurons significantly reduced self-grooming in all three models. Furthermore, glutamatergic inputs from the primary sensory cortex activated the Ziv and contributed to OG. Activation of GABAergic inputs from the central amygdala to the Ziv increased SG, OG, and TG, potentially through local negative regulation of the Ziv. These findings suggest that the Ziv may play a crucial role in processing sensory and emotional information related to self-grooming, making it a potential target for regulating stereotyped behavior. |
