Jounal Nukleus Accumbens jwe yon wòl santral nan kous la rekonpans. Se operasyon li yo ki baze prensipalman sou de nerotransmete esansyèl: Dopamine ki ankouraje dezi, ak serotonin ki gen efè gen ladan sasyete ak anpèchman. Anpil etid bèt yo te montre dwòg jeneralman ogmante pwodiksyon an nan dopamine nan akòmann nan nwayo, pandan y ap diminye sa yo ki an serotonin. Men, akumbèn yo nwayo pa travay nan izolasyon. Li kenbe relasyon pwòch ak lòt sant ki enplike nan mekanis yo nan plezi, ak an patikilye, ak la ventral zòn tegmental, Yo rele la tou VTA.

The Nucleus Accumbens plays a central role in the reward circuit. Its operation is based chiefly on two essential neurotransmitters: dopamine which promotes desire, and serotonin whose effects include satiety and inhibition. Many animal studies have shown drugs generally increase the production of dopamine in the nucleus accumbens, while reducing that of serotonin. But the nucleus accumbens does not work in isolation. It maintains close relations with others centres involved in the mechanisms of pleasure, and in particular, with the ventral tegmental area, also called the VTA.
