Chronic Alcohol Exposure Alters Expression of GluN3A-NMDA Receptors in Adult VTA DA Neurons

Kechun Yang, Jessica K. Shaw, John A. Dani, Mariella De Biasi

This study shows chronic alcohol exposure increases GluN3A-containing NMDARs in VTA dopamine neurons, altering their biophysical properties and glycine responsiveness.

Hypocretin receptor 1 blockade early in abstinence reduces future demand for cocaine

Shanna B. Samels, Jessica K. Shaw, I. Pamela Alonso, Emily M. Black, Yanan Zhang, Rodrigo A. España

This study shows that blocking hypocretin receptor 1 early in abstinence reduces cocaine motivation and normalizes dopamine transmission in rats.

Decreased voluntary alcohol intake and ventral striatal epigenetic and transcriptional remodeling in male Acss2 KO mice

Gabor Egervári, Greg Donahue, Natalia A. Quijano Cardé, Desi C. Alexander, Connor Hogan, Jessica K. Shaw, Erica M. Periandri, Vanessa Fleites, Mariella De Biasi, Shelley L. Berger

This study shows that Acss2 knockout mice consume less alcohol and exhibit epigenetic and transcriptional changes in the ventral striatum, particularly in males.

Strawberry additive increases nicotine vapor sampling and systemic exposure but does not enhance Pavlovian-based nicotine reward in mice

Theresa Patten, Natalie L. Johnson, Jessica K. Shaw, Amanda M. Dossat, Allison Dreier, Bruce A. Kimball, Daniel W. Wesson, Mariella De Biasi

This study investigates how a strawberry additive affects nicotine reward and exposure in mice, finding increased vapor sampling but no enhancement of reward.
