中腦邊緣通路(mesolimbic pathway)又稱獎賞途徑(reward pathway),是中的多巴胺通路[1]。此通路連接中腦腹側被蓋區以及前腦基底核內的紋狀體。紋狀體中包括有伏隔核嗅節結英語Olfactory tubercle[2]

PMID 20149820. doi:10.1016/j.neubiorev.2010.02.001. Recent studies on intracranial self-administration of neurochemicals (drugs) found that rats learn to self-administer various drugs into the mesolimbic dopamine structures–the posterior ventral tegmental area, medial shell nucleus accumbens and medial olfactory tubercle. ... In the 1970s it was recognized that the olfactory tubercle contains a striatal component, which is filled with GABAergic medium spiny neurons receiving glutamatergic inputs form cortical regions and dopaminergic inputs from the VTA and projecting to the ventral pallidum just like the nucleus accumbens
