Adolescent D-amphetamine treatment in a rodent model of ADHD: pro-cognitive effects during adolescence and cocaine abuse risk during adulthood [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is comorbid with cocaine abuse. Whereas initiating ADHD medication in childhood does not alter later cocaine abuse risk, initiating medication during adolescence may increase risk.

A long non‐coding RNA (Lrap) modulates brain gene expression and levels of alcohol consumption in rats

open access: yesGenes, Brain and Behavior, Volume 20, Issue 2, February 2021., 2021
Lrap, a novel lncRNA, is a mediator of alcohol consumption and a modifier of brain RNA expression and splicing. Categories from GO and KEGG pathways that are enriched within the group of differentially expressed transcripts in brains of the Lrap +/+ versus Lrap −/− rats (A).

Lifestyle‐Induced Redox‐Sensitive Alterations: Cross‐Talk among the RAAS, Antioxidant/Inflammatory Status, and Hypertension

open access: yesOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
The development and progression of hypertension are closely linked to an unhealthy lifestyle; however, its underlying mechanisms are not fully elucidated. Our aim was to assess the effects of diet and exercise on the elements of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS), redox‐sensitive parameters, and the expression of the vascular tone ...

Avoidance as expectancy in rats: Sex and strain differences in acquisition

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2014
Avoidance is a core feature of anxiety disorders and factors which increase avoidance expression or its resistance represent a source of vulnerability for anxiety disorders. Outbred female Sprague Dawley (SD) rats and inbred male and female Wistar-Kyoto (

Dopaminergic Modulation of Goal-Directed Behavior in a Rodent Model of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2018
Aside from its clinical symptoms of inattention, impulsivity and hyperactivity, patients with Attention/Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) display reward and motivational impairments. These impairments may reflect a deficit in action control, that is,

Changes in renal WT-1 expression preceding hypertension development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Hypertension is a public health problem with mostly unknown causes, and where strong hereditary genetic alterations have not been fully elucidated. However, the use of experimental models has provided valuable information.

Adolescent methylphenidate treatment differentially alters adult impulsivity and hyperactivity in the Spontaneously Hypertensive Rat model of ADHD [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Impulsivity and hyperactivity are two facets of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Impulsivity is expressed as reduced response inhibition capacity, an executive control mechanism that prevents premature execution of an intermittently ...

Blockade of alpha 2-adrenergic receptors in prelimbic cortex: impact on cocaine self-administration in adult spontaneously hypertensive rats following adolescent atomoxetine treatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
RATIONALE: Research with the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) model of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder demonstrated that chronic methylphenidate treatment during adolescence increased cocaine self-administration established during adulthood ...

Absence of warm-up during active avoidance learning in a rat model of anxiety vulnerability: Insights from computational modeling

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2014
Avoidance behaviors, in which a learned response causes omission of an upcoming punisher, are a core feature of many psychiatric disorders. While reinforcement learning (RL) models have been widely used to study the development of appetitive behaviors ...

Necessity for research directed at stimulant type and treatment-onset age to access the impact of medication on drug abuse vulnerability in teenagers with ADHD [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Controversy continues regarding increased vulnerability for addiction to cocaine and other drugs of abuse in adulthood following the use of stimulant medications for the treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
