Abstract
The neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) has a multifaceted role in healthy and disordered brains through its action on multiple subtypes of dopaminergic receptors. How modulation of these receptors controls behavior by altering connectivity across intrinsic brain-wide networks remains elusive. Here we performed parallel behavioral and resting-state functional MRI experiments after administration of two different DA receptor antagonists in macaque monkeys. Systemic administration of SCH-23390 (D1 antagonist) disrupted probabilistic learning when subjects had to learn new stimulus-reward associations and diminished functional connectivity (FC) in cortico-cortical and fronto-striatal connections. By contrast, haloperidol (D2 antagonist) improved learning and broadly enhanced FC in cortical connections. Further comparison between the effect of SCH-23390/haloperidol on behavioral and resting-state FC revealed specific cortical and subcortical networks associated with the cognitive and motivational effects of DA, respectively. Thus, we reveal the distinct brain-wide networks that are associated with the dopaminergic control of learning and motivation via DA receptors.
