Conditioned place preference/aversion testing is a behavioral method believed capable of measuring the affective (positive, neutral or negative) properties of psychoactive drugs. Cocaine injections in rats reliably produces a positive place…

1. Serotonin (5-HT) and selective 5-HT receptor agonists were administered intrathecally (i.t.) in rats, and the antinociceptive efficacy of these agents was assessed on the tail-flick and hot plate tests. 2. The 5-HT receptor agonists examined in…

Seventh-generation selectively bred high-alcohol-drinking (HAD) and low-alcohol-drinking (LAD) rats were trained to make differential responses for ethanol (0.75 g/kg, IP) and saline vehicle, following postadministration intervals (PI) of 2 min…

The discriminative stimulus properties of cocaine are thought to be mediated by dopaminergic mechanisms that may be modulated by calcium ion influx and/or interact with 5-hydroxytryptamine3 (5-HT3) receptors. To test these possibilities, rats were…

To further clarify the role of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5HT) in the behavioral effects of tetrahydro-beta-carboline, male rats were trained to discriminate either 20 mg/kg THBC from its vehicle (n = 10) or 2.0 mg/kg fenfluramine from saline (n = 5). THBC…
