Menstrual cycle and cue reactivity in women smokers [PDF]

open access: yesNicotine & Tobacco Research, 2009
Emerging research suggests potential effects of the menstrual cycle on various aspects of smoking behavior in women, but results to date have been mixed. The present study sought to explore the influence of menstrual cycle phase on reactivity to smoking in vivo and stressful imagery cues in a sample of non-treatment-seeking women smokers.Via a within ...

Effects of environmental tobacco smoke exposure on brain functioning in never‐smoking adolescents

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, 2020
Introduction Brain functioning, as indexed by event‐related potentials (ERPs) representing smoking cue reactivity, inhibitory control, and reward processing, has been found to be compromised in smokers.

An fMRI study of nicotine-deprived smokers' reactivity to smoking cues during novel/exciting activity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Engaging in novel/exciting ("self-expanding") activities activates the mesolimbic dopamine pathway, a brain reward pathway also associated with the rewarding effects of nicotine. This suggests that self-expanding activities can potentially substitute for

Effects of Saccharin Consumption on Operant Responding for Sugar Reward and Incubation of Sugar Craving in Rats

open access: yesFoods, 2020
Repeated experience with artificial sweeteners increases food consumption and body weight gain in rats. Saccharin consumption may reduce the conditioned satiety response to sweet-tasting food. Rats were trained to press a lever to obtain sucrose for five

Astrocytes as cellular mediators of cue reactivity in addiction

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Pharmacology, 2021
Relapse to addictive drug use remains a major medical problem worldwide. In rodents, glutamate release in the nucleus accumbens core triggers reinstated drug seeking in response to stress, and drug-associated cues and contexts. Glutamatergic dysregulation in addiction results in part from long-lasting adaptations in accumbens astroglia, including ...

An instrument for visual cue associated craving of HEroin (IV-CACHE): A preliminary functional neuroimaging-based study of validity and reliability

open access: yesIndian Journal of Psychiatry, 2021
Background: Craving is the subjective experience of desire for specific drugs. Lack of reliability and untested construct validity are limiting factors for the existing questionnaires to assess craving.

Relapse to smoking during unaided cessation: clinical, cognitive and motivational predictors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Rationale: Neurobiological models of addiction suggest that abnormalities of brain reward circuitry distort salience attribution and inhibitory control processes, which in turn contribute to high relapse rates.

Cue reactivity in virtual reality: The role of context [PDF]

open access: yesAddictive Behaviors, 2011
Cigarette smokers in laboratory experiments readily respond to smoking stimuli with increased craving. An alternative to traditional cue-reactivity methods (e.g., exposure to cigarette photos), virtual reality (VR) has been shown to be a viable cue presentation method to elicit and assess cigarette craving within complex virtual environments.

Cue reactivity in nicotine and alcohol addiction: a cross-cultural view

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2016
A wealth of research indicates that cue reactivity is critical to understanding the neurobiology of nicotine and alcohol addiction and developing treatments.

The CB1R rs2023239 receptor gene variant significantly affects the reinforcing effects of nicotine, but not cue reactivity, in human smokers

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, 2021
Introduction The cannabinoid CB1 receptor (CB1R) has been shown in preclinical studies to be involved in nicotine reinforcement and relapse‐like behavior. The common single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2023239 may code for an alternative CB1R protein,
