Examining Cocaine Conditioning Place Preference in Mice [PDF]
A key component of combating substance use disorders is understanding the neural mechanisms that support drug reward. Tasks such as self-administration assess the reinforcing properties of a drug using a learned behavior but require numerous training sessions and surgery.

Corticosterone fails to produce conditioned place preference or conditioned place aversion in rats [PDF]
In some rats, the hormone corticosterone is reinforcing. High novelty-seeking rats (high responders, HR) self-administered corticosterone at a much higher rate than low novelty-seeking rats (low responders, LR) do [Piazza PV, Deroche V, Deminiere JM, Maccari S, Le Moal M, Simon H, Corticosterone in the range of stress-induced levels possesses ...

Novel Putative Positive Modulators of α4β2 nAChRs Potentiate Nicotine Reward-Related Behavior
The popular tobacco and e-cigarette chemical flavorant (−)-menthol acts as a nonselective, noncompetitive antagonist of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), and contributes to multiple physiological effects that exacerbates nicotine addiction ...
