Mu-opioid receptor knockout on Foxp2-expressing neurons reduces aversion-resistant alcohol drinking

This study shows that deleting MORs in Foxp2-expressing neurons reduces aversion-resistant alcohol drinking and related behaviors in mice.

Effects of early life stress paired with adolescent alcohol consumption on two-bottle choice alcohol drinking behaviors in mice

This study examines how early life stress combined with adolescent alcohol consumption affects alcohol drinking behaviors in mice, finding that it increases aversion-resistant drinking in females.

Cholinergic mu-opioid receptor deletion alters reward preference and aversion-resistance

This study investigates the role of cholinergic mu-opioid receptors in alcohol and nicotine consumption, finding sex-dependent effects on aversion-resistant drinking.

Greater resistance to footshock punishment in female C57BL/6J mice responding for ethanol

This study shows female C57BL/6J mice are more resistant to footshock punishment when self-administering ethanol compared to males.

Gonadal hormones and sex chromosome complement differentially contribute to ethanol intake, preference, and relapse-like behavior in Four Core Genotypes mice

This study shows that in FCG mice, sex hormones and sex chromosomes independently influence ethanol consumption, preference, and relapse-like behavior.
