Severe drug-induced repetitive behaviors and striatal overexpression of VAChT in ChAT-ChR2-EYFP BAC transgenic mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2014
In drug users, drug-related cues alone can induce dopamine release in the dorsal striatum. Instructive cues activate inputs to the striatum from both dopaminergic and cholinergic neurons, which are thought to work together to support motor learning and ...

Cross‐sectional and longitudinal associations of cannabis use with cognitive functioning in individuals with a cannabis use disorder: The moderating role of nicotine

open access: yesAddiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Aims Cannabis is among the most widely used psychoactive substances globally and is often consumed alongside tobacco. Cannabis use has been associated with impairments in attention, learning, and memory, whereas nicotine can acutely enhance, but chronically impair, certain cognitive functions.

Cholinergic modulation of the medial prefrontal cortex: the role of nicotinic receptors in attention and regulation of neuronal activity

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2014
Acetylcholine release in the medial prefrontal cortex is (mPFC) crucial for normal cognitive performance. Despite the fact that many have studied how acetylcholine affects neuronal processing in the mPFC and thereby influences attention behavior, there ...

Nicotine Exposure During Pregnancy and Postnatal Cognitive Outcomes: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Nicotine exposure during pregnancy interferes with critical periods of foetal brain development, disrupting the timing and functioning of neurodevelopment. This systematic review and meta‐analysis aims to evaluate the effect of prenatal nicotine exposure on postnatal cognitive outcomes.

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐
