Nicotine self‐administration in rats [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, 1984
Female Wistar rats were allowed to self‐administer nicotine solutions through indwelling jugular vein cannulae for 23 h per day for periods from three to five weeks. Two response levers were available to the rats; responding on one lever, designated the active lever, produced an immediate infusion of nicotine solution or saline.

Intravenous self administration of mercury [PDF]

open access: yesQJM, 2008
A 24-year-old man attempted suicide by intravenous injection of elemental mercury. The exact quantity of injected elemental mercury was unknown. Five days later, the patient presented with painful erythema involving the anterior part of both forearms. On admission, laboratory findings disclosed the following: haemoglobin: 14.5 mmol/l, white blood cell ...

The interplay between the hippocampus and the amygdala in regulating aberrant hippocampal neurogenesis during protracted abstinence from alcohol dependence

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2013
The development of alcohol dependence involves elevated anxiety, low mood, and increased sensitivity to stress, collectively labeled negative affect. Particularly interesting is the recent accumulating evidence that sensitized extrahypothalamic stress ...

Usability, acceptability, and feasibility of a High-Density Microarray Patch (HD-MAP) applicator as a delivery method for vaccination in clinical settings

open access: yesHuman Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2022
Background High-density microarray patch (HD-MAP) vaccines may increase vaccine acceptance and use. We aimed to ascertain whether professional immunizers (PIs) and other healthcare workers (HCWs) in Australia, a High-Income Country (HIC), found the HD ...

Chronic Fentanyl Self-Administration Generates a Shift toward Negative Affect in Rats during Drug Use

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2021
Drug addiction is thought to be driven by negative reinforcement, and it is thought that a shift from positive affect upon initial exposure to negative affect after chronic exposure to a drug is responsible for maintaining self-administration (SA) in ...

Detrimental Effects of a Retrieval-Extinction Procedure on Nicotine Seeking, but Not Cocaine Seeking

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2019
Retrieval-extinction memory reactivation procedures have been used to prevent the return of learned fear and drug seeking in preclinical models. These procedures first reactivate the original memory with a brief cue exposure (i.e., retrieval) session ...

DNA methyltransferase activity in the basolateral amygdala is critical for reconsolidation of a heroin reward memory

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
The persistence of drug memory contributes to relapse to drug seeking. The association between repeated drug exposure and drug-related cues leads to cravings triggered by drug-paired cues.

Histamine H3 receptor: A novel therapeutic target in alcohol dependence?

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2012
The brain histaminergic system is one of the diffuse modulatory neurotransmitter systems which regulate neuronal activity in many brain areas. Studies on both rats and mice indicate that histamine H3 receptor antagonists decrease alcohol drinking in ...

Viral-Mediated Knockdown of Nucleus Accumbens Shell PAC1 Receptor Promotes Excessive Alcohol Drinking in Alcohol-Preferring Rats

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2021
Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a chronic, relapsing disorder whose genetic and environmental susceptibility components are not fully understood. Neuropeptidergic signaling has been repeatedly implicated in modulating excessive alcohol drinking, especially

Disruption of long-term alcohol-related memory reconsolidation: Role of β-adrenoceptors and NMDA receptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2010
Disrupting reconsolidation of drug-related memories may be effective in reducing the incidence of relapse. In the current study we examine whether alcohol- related memories are prone to disruption by the β -adrenergicreceptor antagonist propranolol (
