Effect of Electrical Stimulation and Lesion of Nucleus Accumbens on EEG of Intact and Addicted Rats [PDF]
Introduction: The nucleus accumbens is involved in various functions ranging from motivation and reward to feeding and drug addiction. Some researchers have also suggested that this region has some roles in consciousness. In the present study, the effect

The Effects of Topiramate Applied to the Nucleus Accumbens Region on Morphine Withdrawal Syndrome
Aim:Nucleus accumbens, one of the nuclei of the basal ganglia, and dopamine, the neurotransmitter play a critical role in opioid dependence and withdrawal. In opioid withdrawal, the importance of neurotransmitters such as glutamate and gamma aminobutyric

The value of extended amygdala structures in emotive effects of narcogenic with diverse chemical structure [PDF]
Introduction: Studies on the mechanisms of the reinforcing action of opioid and non-opioid narcotics confirmed the existence in the brain of a specialized system named the extended amygdala.

Effects of cocaethylene on dopamine and serotonin synthesis in Long–Evans and Sprague–Dawley brains [PDF]
We examined the behavioral and neurochemical effects of cocaethylene treatment in Long–Evans ( LE). and Sprague–Dawley (SD) rats. Cocaethylene-induced behaviors were significantly less in LE rats.

Cocaine and Synaptic Alterations in the Nucleus Accumbens [PDF]
In laboratory animals, repeated cocaine exposure produces long-lasting behavioral alterations such as psychomotor sensitization and conditioned place preference (CPP) that are thought to model various aspects of addictive behavior. A great deal of effort has gone into examining the relationship of electrophysiological, and particularly synaptic ...

Social interaction reward decreases p38 activation in the nucleus accumbens shell of rats [PDF]
We have previously shown that animals acquired robust conditioned place preference (CPP) to either social interaction alone or cocaine alone. Recently it has been reported that drugs of abuse abnormally activated p38, a member of mitogen-activated ...

Stability of CART peptide expression in the nucleus accumbens in aging [PDF]
Aging is accompanied by changes of several anorexigenic and orexigenic neuropeptides expressed in various brain areas that control food intake and these changes correlate with senescent anorexia.

Slow-wave sleep is controlled by a subset of nucleus accumbens core neurons in mice
Sleep control is ascribed to a two-process model, a widely accepted concept that posits homoeostatic drive and a circadian process as the major sleep-regulating factors.
