Recent reports cite results that both cocaine-induced conditioned place preference and activity stimulation are attenuated by pretreatment with the calcium channel blocker isradipine (ISR) in rats. By blocking voltage-dependent

Lateral ventricular administration of angiotensin II (ANG II) produces potent dipsogenic effects in water-sated rats. ANG II seems to require functional voltage-gated calcium channels on neurons throughout circumventricular brain sites to exert its…

Numerous drugs of abuse that elevate brain extracellular dopamine concentrations by either increasing the firing rate of dopaminergic neurons or producing dopamine release have been shown to reliably condition a preference for place. If dopamine…

Rats were trained to discriminate IP administration of 800 micrograms/kg cathinone using a food-motivated, two-lever discrimination procedure. Following training, 800 micrograms/kg cathinone discrimination was produced (generalized) by lower…

There is a widespread practice among people living in Eastern Africa and Southern Arabia of chewing the leaves of the Khat shrub so as to produce pharmacological effects that are practically indistinguishable from those produced by amphetamine…

1. The objective of Exp. 1 was to determine whether intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection of cathinone CATH (8.0-32 micrograms) would produce a dose-dependent conditioned place preference (CPP) and/or activation in rats. Results indicate that rats…

1. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were fitted with intrathecal (i.t.) and intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) catheters. Fentanyl was injected either i.t. or i.c.v., and the antinociceptive efficacy of fentanyl was evaluated using the tail-flick…
