bstinence and Extinction Drive Opposing Changes in Striatal Activity and Dopamine Signaling During Alcohol Relapse

Xueyi Xie, Ruifeng Chen, Yufei Huang, Xuehua Wang, Jun Wang

This study shows that abstinence and extinction training lead to opposing changes in striatal activity and dopamine signaling during alcohol relapse, with extinction reducing relapse-like behavior.

Striatal Mu-Opioid Receptor Activation Triggers Direct-Pathway GABAergic Plasticity to Induce Negative Affect

Wei Wang, Xueyi Xie, Xiaowen Zhuang, Yufei Huang, Tao Tan, Himanshu Gangal, Zhenbo Huang, William Purvines, Xuehua Wang, Alex Stefanov, Ruifeng Chen, Emily J. Yu, Michelle A. Hook, Yun Yan Huang, Emmanuel Darcq, Jun Wang

This study shows that chronic opioid use induces GABAergic plasticity in striatal neurons, leading to hypodopaminergic states and negative affect, which contribute to relapse.
