Genetic Modulation of Oxycodone Self-Administration Trajectories: From Initiation to Escalating Burst Patterns

Caleb I Hodges, Eamonn P. Duffy, Jonathan O Ward, Luanne H. Hale, Cove Andrews, Laura M. Saba, Marissa A. Ehringer, Ryan K. Bachtell

This study identifies strain-dependent genetic influences on oxycodone self-administration patterns in rats, revealing differences in acquisition, escalation, and burst-like responding.

Voluntary oxycodone self-administration produces analgesic tolerance and sex-dependent hyperalgesia across genetically diverse rats

Tolulope J. Ajanaku, Eamonn P. Duffy, Jonathon O. Ward, Luanne H. Hale, Caleb I Hodges, Laura M. Saba, Marissa A. Ehringer, Ryan K. Bachtell

This study shows that voluntary oxycodone self-administration in rats leads to analgesic tolerance and sex-dependent hyperalgesia, with genetic strain differences in thermal sensitivity and analgesic response.

Sex and genetic background influence intravenous oxycodone self-administration in the Hybrid Rat Diversity Panel

Eamonn P. Duffy, Jonathan O Ward, Luanne H. Hale, Kyle T. Brown, Andrew J. Kwilasz, Erika A. Mehrhoff, Laura M. Saba, Marissa A. Ehringer, Ryan K. Bachtell

This study shows that sex and genetic background affect oxycodone self-administration in rats, with heritability estimates ranging from 0.25 to 0.54.

Regulation of defeat-induced social avoidance by medial amygdala DRD1 in male and female prairie voles

Maria C. Tickerhoof, Luanne H. Hale, Michael J. Butler, Adam S. Smith

This study investigates social defeat stress in both male and female prairie voles, showing increased DRD1 expression in the medial amygdala and its role in inducing social avoidance.
