TARP γ-8 is a target of ethanol that regulates self-administration and relapse in mice

Sara Faccidomo, Jessica L. Hoffman, Julie Lee…·Clyde W. Hodge

This study shows that TARP γ-8 regulates ethanol reinforcement and relapse in mice, with reduced self-administration and cue-induced reinstatement in TARP γ-8 heterozygous null mice.

Inhibition of AMPA receptors bound to transmembrane AMPA receptor regulatory protein γ-8 (TARP γ-8) blunts the positive reinforcing properties of alcohol and sucrose in a brain region-dependent manner

Jessica L. Hoffman, Sara Faccidomo, Seth M. Taylor…·Clyde W. Hodge

This study inhibits TARP γ-8 bound AMPARs in specific brain regions to show their role in alcohol and sucrose reinforcement, finding region-specific effects on reward behavior.
