BOLD activation during cue induced craving in adolescent inhalant users
Asian Journal of Psychiatry, 2020Inhalants are legally available substances, most of them inexpensive, which are often abused by adolescents. Craving causes their continued use and repeated relapses. There is a need to understand the cue-induced craving and the associated neural mechanisms. In absence of any such prior study, the present study compared the hemodynamic changes in brain

Cumulative priming effects of cortical stimulation on smoking cue-induced craving
Neuroscience Letters, 2009Smoking cue-provoked craving is an intricate behavior associated with strong changes in neural networks. Craving is one of the main reasons subjects continue to smoke; therefore interventions that can modify activity in neural networks associated with craving can be useful tools in future research investigating novel treatments for smoking cessation ...

Cannabis and cue-induced craving in cocaine-dependent individuals: A pilot study
Addictive Behaviors, 2017Cannabis consumption is common among cocaine users; however, little is known about its effect on cocaine craving. The objective of this study was to assess whether cannabis co-use is associated with lower cue-induced cocaine craving in non-treatment-seeking cocaine-dependent individuals.Data from twenty-eight cocaine-dependent men were analyzed in this

Retrospective study: Influence of menstrual cycle on cue-induced cigarette craving
Nicotine & Tobacco Research, 2004Cigarettes acquire reinforcing properties from nicotine and from cues associated with their intake. However, smoking in males and females may be reinforced differentially. Smoking in females is posited to be influenced more by cues whereas male smoking is influenced predominantly by the direct pharmacological actions of nicotine in the brain. Menstrual

Effect of rapamycin on cue-induced drug craving in abstinent heroin addicts
European Journal of Pharmacology, 2009The mammalian target of rapamycin is an evolutionarily conserved serine-threonine kinase (mTOR), which controls protein synthesis and catabolism in response to environmental cues. This randomized double-blind clinical trial enrolled 60 abstinent heroin addicts and randomly assigned them to three groups: placebo, 2.5 mg and 5 mg rapamycin.

A virtual reality counterconditioning procedure to reduce methamphetamine cue-induced craving
Journal of Psychiatric Research, 2019The present work developed a virtual reality (VR) counterconditioning procedure (VRCP), and investigated its efficacy in treatment of cue-induced craving in individuals with methamphetamine (METH) dependence. In study 1, thirty-one patients diagnosed with METH dependence received VRCP, while twenty-nine METH-dependent patients in waiting-list group did

Effect of Tryptophan Depletion on Alcohol Cue-Induced Craving in Abstinent Alcoholic Patients
Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research, 2001Background: The capacity of alcohol cues to precipitate the desire to drink may be an important determinant of relapse to alcohol use in recovering alcohol‐dependent patients. This study evaluated whether attenuation of serotonin synthesis via depletion of its precursor tryptophan reduces the magnitude of cue‐induced craving for alcohol in recently ...

Mindfulness Induction Reduces Cue‐Induced Craving in Female Methamphetamine Users
Journal of Clinical PsychologyABSTRACT Objectives Inspired by an affective processing model of negative reinforcement, this study aimed to examine the effects of mindfulness induction on self‐reported methamphetamine craving and investigate the mechanism underlying this relationship.

Cue-induced behavioural activation: a novel model of alcohol craving?
Psychopharmacology, 2003Alcohol-associated cues elicit craving in human addicts but little is known about craving mechanisms. Current animal models focus on relapse and this may confound the effect of environmental cues. OBJECTIVES. To develop a model to study the effects of environmental cues on alcohol consumption in animals not experiencing withdrawal or relapse.Rats were ...
