Heroin dependents are insulin resistant
, 2011 Background. Fasting insulin levels, HOMA-IR and HOMA-%B are precise methods for determining insulin resistance and can be used in assessing the insulin sensitivity in heroin dependents (HD). Heroin dependents are expected to be insulin resistant. To determine the heroin influence on insulin sensitivity in male heroin dependents compared to control ...

Context features influence alcohol reward and motivation
Alcohol, Clinical and Experimental Research, Volume 50, Issue 3, March 2026.The alcohol intake environment can exert powerful long‐term effects on alcohol motivation and relapse through alcohol‐context associative learning.

Psilocybin and Ibogaine in Cocaine‐Seeking: Extinction Enhancement Without Relapse Prevention
Addiction Biology, Volume 31, Issue 3, March 2026.Using a preclinical model of cocaine self‐administration, we examined the effects of psilocybin and ibogaine on extinction learning and relapse‐like behaviour. Both compounds, administered during the extinction phase, reduced cocaine seeking, indicating facilitation of extinction learning. However, neither treatment prevented cue‐induced reinstatement.

The Buprenorphine Paradox: How Buprenorphine Triggers and Resolves Opioid Withdrawal
Addiction Biology, Volume 31, Issue 3, March 2026.Buprenorphine can either precipitate or relieve opioid withdrawal depending on the timing of administration relative to full opioid agonist exposure. The article proposes that buprenorphine promotes mu‐opioid receptor (MOR) externalization and resensitization, creating a temporary signaling gap that explains precipitated withdrawal when full agonists ...
