Abstinence-dependent effects of long-access cocaine self-administration on nucleus accumbens astrocytes are observed in male, but not female rats

Ronald Kim, Anze Testen, Eden V. Harder, Natalie E. Brown, Emily A. Witt, Tania J. Bellinger, Janay P. Franklin, Kathryn J. Reissner

The paper examines the effects of long-access cocaine self-administration and abstinence on nucleus accumbens astrocytes in male and female rats, finding significant reductions in male rats but not females.
