Morphine-context associative memory and locomotor sensitization in mice are modulated by sex and context in a dose-dependent manner

Peter U. Hámor, Matthew C. Hartmann, Aaron F. Garcia, Dezhi Liu, Kristen E. Pleil

This study examines how morphine's effects on locomotor sensitization and context association differ between male and female mice, showing sex-dependent dose-related changes in behavior and memory.

Valence and salience encoding by parallel circuits from the paraventricular thalamus to the nucleus accumbens

Jean K. Rivera-Irizarry, Peter U. Hámor, Sydney A. Rowson, Joseph J. Asfouri, Dezhi Liu, Lia J. Zallar, Aaron F. Garcia, Mary Jane Skelly, Kristen E. Pleil

This study identifies two parallel circuits from the paraventricular thalamus to the nucleus accumbens that encode valence and salience with sex-dependent differences.
