This study shows GRK2/3 inhibition affects novelty-seeking behavior and striatal dopamine levels in rats, with implications for drug addiction vulnerability.

This study investigates the effects of GRK2/3 inhibition on locomotor sensitization and molecular changes in striatal regions of amphetamine-treated rats, finding region-specific molecular effects without altering sensitization.

The paper models dendritic domain intersection between neurons, finding that shape uniformity significantly increases intersection and that dynamics vary by cell type.
